About this book
The Supposed Autographa of John the Scot is by Edward Kennard Rand. The text says that evidence was presented in the fifth part of Ludwig Traube's Palaeographische Forschungen for Traube's apparently certain discovery of the very handwriting of John the Scot. The writer says that in the summers of 1912 and 1913 he examined the manuscripts of John the Scot in Paris, in Reims, in Laon, and in Bamberg, and became convinced, most reluctantly, that his autograph is yet to be found.
The text describes the Reims Manuscript 875 as the work of some six or seven writers, whose hands are sometimes hard to tell apart. The writer says there are two varieties of insular script in the book. One variety is described as loose, pointed, flowing, with few abbreviations or ligatures specially characteristic of Irish script.
