Title: Manoscritto Voynich e Castel del Monte : Nuova chiave interpretativa del documento per inediti percorsi di ricerca
Author: Fallacara, Giuseppe ; Ubaldo Occhinegro
Price: Not Available
ISBN: 9788849227499
Description: Roma: Gangemi, 2013. 23cm., pbk., 176pp. illus. Italian-English text. From the introduction: I was particularly impressed by the authors interpretation of folio 85 1-2 [of the Voynich Manuscript] as a meta-project of Castel del Monte. With this illustration as a key to reading the monument, everything falls into place: the architectural design is revealed in its full symbolic, scientific, esoteric and functional nature. Frederick ll's "hydraulic machine", a unique exemplum in Western Medieval architecture, made of pipes, tubes, channels, cisterns, showers and fireplaces, does indeed appear as the concrete transposition of that which is 'described' in the Voynich Manuscript of real and tangible what is "described" in the pages of the Voynich Manuscript.
