Re: Distinguishing some questions about the "Letter to Theodore"

His dating was from paleography!
Not from graphology!
Why, do you suppose, most game-changing conversations don't happen here?

Re: Distinguishing some questions about the "Letter to Theodore"

He, the best expert, already gave them.
My restatement, in this case, like yours, is of less value.

Re: Distinguishing some questions about the "Letter to Theodore"

Rather, I'm suggesting that, in terms of contradicting the paleography assessment by A. T.,
Peter Kirby and Secret Alias
got nothin'.

Re: Distinguishing some questions about the "Letter to Theodore"

One possibility, though I do not claim certainty:

Re: Distinguishing some questions about the "Letter to Theodore"

Not authentically dated to 18th-century is what he concluded.

Graphologists address a different subject, whether well or not. He did that dating, in detail, writing,...
