To quote Copernicus:
"Although all the good arts serve to draw man's mind away from vices and lead it toward better things, this function can be more fully performed by this art, which also provides extraordinary intellectual pleasure."
"intellectual pleasure" is exactly what I am referring to.
Copernicus was born in 1473 and died in 1543. Say he lived roughly 70 years after the writer of the Voynich(depending on how old one thinks the writer was when he wrote the manuscript). Alright this is a different historical period, but not so much later.
