Dr. Hartlieb's alleged involvement in the creation of the Voynich Manuscript

[Koen G]

Michelle Lewis and Keagan Brewer had a Hartlieb authorship theory. Michelle told my by email that they explored to the fullest if they could find an overlap between Hartlieb's active years and the VM dating. They even contacted a specialist who went over the radiocarbon dating analysis, double checking the calculations. (Turns out the radiocarbon dating range is even more reliable than we amateurs realize!). In the end, they realized the evidence for Hartlieb just wasn't there, and shifted to a Hartlieb-like author.

Hartlieb is one of those authors that intersects with the VM in some ways. That doesn't mean we have to struggle to find ways to make him the author.
