TPO35
The reading and listening materials both deal with the same topic about the origin of the Voynich manuscript. In the reading passage, there are three theories posed to explain it, but these theories are challenged by the professor using solid evidence.
First, according to the author, this manuscript may be from Anthony, a botanist in the sixteen century. However, the professor disagrees with that. He states that this manuscript does not fit to the well-known original books of this botanist, and those plants in his books are common, but not unique as that in the manuscript, which means that it is unlikely that this manuscript is from the botanist.
Second, the author claims that the manuscript is a fake magical book from a tricky person back then, whereas the professor casts doubt on it. As said by the professor, people in sixteen-century is fool and easy to be deceived, so that this man could create simple words to deceive them, which means that he had no any reason to make such a complex manuscript for his purpose. Thus, this theory does not make sense, as well.
Third, the author says that it maybe a modern fake from an antique book dealer for his fortune, while the professor challenges it. This is mainly because the result of dating using modern techniques shows that this manuscript is 400 years old, so that it is not created by the dealer, but obtained by him. Therefore, this theory is also not right.
In conclusion, the professor disputes the three theories mentioned in the reading material using strong evidence.
