Both the reading and listening parts offer two opposite views about the author of the Voynich manuscript. While the passage lists three possible theories to assume the possible author, the lecturer lists the contradictory of these hypotheses and call them into the question.
The first assumption taken by the text is the author of the book is Ascham who wanted to explain the scientific subject in the complex coded way. However, the professor casts doubt on the accuracy of this assumption. As he explains, the photo of plant depicted in the manuscript is a common herbal shown in the various well-known books; so, this book does not share a complex or secret contend. Furthermore, the Ascham was an ordinary scientist and based on his level of knowledge he could not write a complicated note.
Secondly, the passage considered Edward Kelley as the possible writer of the manuscript who tried to sell the fake magical manuscript of becoming wealthy to earn the money. On the other hand, the instructor challenges the validity of this surmise. As he posits, although the Kelley was a notorious person, there was no requirement for writing such complicated and coded manuscript to deceives the people. The people on that period was fool enough to get deceived by the simple book instead of this complex one.
Finally, meanwhile, the reading section surmised the possible author of the manuscript was M. Voynich himself, who modern fake the book to sell it as an ancient and mysterious one; the listening section, on the other hand, refutes this surmise too. As the lecturer asserts, there is a modern technology which can lucidly clarify the data of vellum and ink. Besides, according to the analysis done by this technology, vellum and ink are 400 years old. Even Voynich had access to the old vellum, he could not find an ink with that much age. Thus, the manuscript is written years before the Voynich.
