Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'The Cipher of Roger Bacon' explores one of the most intriguing mysteries in the history of cryptography and medieval science. Written by scholar William Romaine Newbold, this work presents a fascinating investigation into the life and secret writings of the 13th-century Franciscan friar and polymath, Roger Bacon.The book is primarily known for its groundbreaking attempt to decode the enigmatic Voynich Manuscript, which Newbold believed was authored by Bacon using an elaborate microscopic shorthand. Newbold delves deep into Bacon's scientific theories, philosophical insights, and his alleged use of advanced technology, such as the microscope and telescope, long before their recognized invention. Through a meticulous analysis of medieval ciphers, the text provides a window into the intellectual world of the Middle Ages, where science and mysticism often intertwined.Whether viewed as a historical study of cryptography or a deep dive into the legacy of one of England's greatest early scientists, 'The Cipher of Roger Bacon' remains an essential volume for those interested in the history of ideas, the evolution of secret communication, and the enduring quest to solve history's most elusive puzzles.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Published posthumously and edited with a foreword and notes by Roland Grubb Kent, Newbold's attempted decipherment of the Voynich Manuscript, which he attributed to the 13th-century philosopher and scientist Roger Bacon. Newbold believed his elaborate cipher system revealed evidence that Bacon possessed scientific knowledge centuries in advance of his time. His decipherment initially received serious scholarly attention but was subsequently discredited, notably by John Matthews Manly in 1931. Illustrated with b&w photographic plates, largely reproducing leaves and details from the Voynich Manuscript, with some reproductions of Bacon manuscripts; additional manuscript reproductions and figures appear throughout the text.
