Italian written miraculously with left handedness is hard to interpret!

Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci designed not only the masterpieces such as "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper", but also helicopters and tanks. Literate is deep is not only art, mathematics, anatomy, astronomy, was familiar with all the academic, such as physics universal people have been known as today.

It is hard to imagine that he would have left a huge amount of material in the course of their research and experiments. According to Boing Boing, the British Library recently digitized and released the story " The Codex Arundel " written by Da Vinci by one of them.

You can access the digital data of the manuscript from here. I tried to skip to the last page, but I can not read the characters indeed. However, if you look at the illustration, a detailed discussion of the distance and angle of the weight using the pulley is detailed.

A large volume of 570 pages. Even if you can read Italian, you can not read it unless you invert it in a mirror. Because the letters are written from right to left. This is the result of devising to not rub the ink by hand because he was left-handed.

The last page was barely an illustration. Although it was serious for a long time, it is stuff like a dragon is drawn and can not be seen?
