[Article] The Linguistics of the Voynich Manuscript (Bowern et al. 2020)

[MichelleL11]

I keep hearing rumors, both here and on Nick Pelling's blog, that someone has attempted to execute Torsten Timm's self-citation method using low-tech methods, and failed to replicate his results. 

I'm unaware of any such rumour appearing on my blog.

I'm obviously remembering it wrong then.

I remember it as well, but I think it was Lisa Fagen Davis and she mentioned it in association with her work with Claire Bowern.  Maybe in her interview by Koen for the board?

I, too, wish there were a few more details in the paper about that work.  I'm looking forward to reading about what you can dig up in your research on the topic.
