伏尼契手稿,是一本內容不明的神秘書籍,共240頁,附有插图,而作者不詳。書中所用字母及語言至今无人能识别,與現代的語言完全搭不上,似乎是中古世紀煉金術士之參考書籍。書名伏尼契來自名為威尔弗雷德·伏尼契的波裔美国书商,他於1912年在義大利買下此书。2005年,这部书被耶鲁大学的贝内克珍本与手稿图书馆收藏,编号MS 408。
2011年透過放射性碳定年法檢測出其書成於十五世紀初,估計在1404-1438年間,可信度達95%。这份手稿被發現以來,專業和業餘的譯解密碼員,如第二次世界大戰期間英美頂尖解碼專家,都積極研究它,但是未能破譯出隻字片語。一連串的失敗令伏尼契手稿儼然成為密碼術历史中的「聖杯」。不過,也有不少人認為手稿只不過是個惡作劇——因為書中的符號排列全無意義可言。[1]
内容
伏尼契手稿用上等牛犊皮纸(Vellum)制成,全书大约240页,但伏尼契获得之前就已经散失了部分书页。书中的文字和素描图都是用鹅毛笔写成,图画上的彩色部分应该是后期才补上的。
例證
手稿內的插圖對於揭露書中內容未能有太大幫助,但是藉着插圖卻可以看出全書分為六個篇或章節,每篇的風格和主題各有不同。除了最後一篇全以文字寫成之外,手稿內的每頁最少都有一幅插圖。每個章節的慣用名稱詳見如下:
- 草藥:每頁顯示了一種植物(某些頁有兩種),部分段落描述了當時歐洲的典型草藥。部分插圖比「醫藥」章節的草圖更大更清晰。
- 天文:含有天體圖,其中有太陽、月亮和星辰,應與天文學或占星術相關。其中有12幅圖描繪了黃道12宮的星相(星座)標記(兩條魚代表雙魚座、一頭公牛代表 金牛座、手持弓箭的戰士代表人馬座等等)。每一符號都畫有約30個女子環繞,每個女子都捧著一顆標有名稱的星星,大部分女子是裸體的。章節最後兩頁(水瓶座和魔羯座,一月和二月的星座)已經缺失,而白羊座和金牛座的兩頁已經撕裂為4張圖,每張上各有15個星星。有些圖案是畫在可折疊的書頁上。
- 生物學:大量的文字並配有插圖。圖主要是裸體女子在水池中或盆中洗澡的樣子,這些池或盆用管子連接成網狀。其中部分可以很容易的看出像人體的器官,有些女子頭戴皇冠。
- 醫藥:很多帶標記的圖畫,如各種植物的部分如根部、葉子等等。物體都類似於藥物,在書頁旁另有文字說明。
- 配方:很多短的段落,每一個都標有一個花形或者星形的標注。
原文
由右邊不對稱的段落推斷,文字是由左至右書寫。段落沒有明顯的標點符號。從流暢的字型及排列整齊,似乎謄寫員清楚明白自己在寫什麼,而不是落筆前故意逐字編造。
手稿含有17萬個字跡,字跡之間有窄分隔,大部分由一至兩筆寫成。一套有20至30種不同字跡的字母系統幾乎說明了整個手稿。關於某些字跡是否為個別字母存在一些爭論。部分奇怪的字母僅出現一或兩次。較闊的分隔可分辨出約3.5萬個不同長度的「詞彙」,大致符合語音學的規律,例如部分字母在每一個詞彙經常出現(正如英語的韻母)等。
統計分析發現,文稿的文字規律與自然語言類似。例如,詞彙的出現頻率符合齊夫定律,而詞彙的熵(每詞約10位元)亦與英語或拉丁語相類似。
然而,手稿的語言與歐洲語言不太相似。例如,幾乎沒有詞彙是多過10個字母,亦幾乎沒有1或2個字母的詞彙。詞彙內的字母分布獨特,有些字母僅出現在字首,有些在字尾,有些在詞彙中間,這特點與阿拉伯字母相似,但不見於拉丁字母、希臘字母或西里尔字母。詞彙的重複程度也高於一般歐洲語言。同一詞彙可能一句出現三次(相當於在英語出現and and and)。統計學上,手稿的詞彙數目相對較少。
作者推测
有不少人被推測為伏尼契手稿的原作者。這裡只是一些最知名的人物。
騙局論
有人認為伏尼契手稿只是文字顯得很複雜的騙局。但另一方面質疑如果是騙局,隨之而來的問題:作者為什麼會採用這樣一個複雜而艱苦的騙局,如果沒有一個預期的觀眾(即創作者的同時代人)?但有人認為,當初這手稿疑似被神聖羅馬帝國皇帝魯道夫二世買下,顯然作者是以精美的圖,運用卡登格(Cardan grille)填上文字來騙錢[2]。
