Humanist handwriting in the MS?

[MarcoP]

I still don't understand why people connect the VM to humanist handwriting. Especially knowing that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. handwriting exists. Does humanist handwriting offer something these examples don't?

Hi Koen,
while individual characters appear to derive from Gothic cursiva, that kind of script has the feature of typically being "hasty" and sometimes "messy", with characters joined together (the quill was apparently kept on the page as much as possible for speed). Reading these scripts can often be difficult. On the other hand, Voynichese (like humanistic scripts) mostly features clearly separated characters; depending on the sections/scribes, it can have some slant, which gives some impression of "speed", but not really comparable with most cursiva manuscripts. Also, Lisa's manuscript has very few abbreviations: this also concurs to a clean and readable overall look, with a lot of vertical blank space between lines.

Here I include a few lines from one of the manuscripts in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. (Sang.839).
