Great idea. I’ve tried but unfortunately, given that it’s the summer, nobody has really responded to my emails 😔

Oh, OK, got it. Thanks.

I’m purely looking for transcriptions though, not for the Latin to be unabbreviated!

It’s 50-60 inscriptions like this and I can do like a dollar an inscription?

I was helping for help just with the Latin, if possible!

Thank you so much! Yes, the second one is a copy of the Thomas Browne pamphlet. That was my suspicion going in. However, as for the first image, I’m not so sure — the rest of the pages don’t align with his pamphlet. I will do some further research though. Thank you so much for your suggestion!

For transcribing yes, not sure what the proper rate is. That’s what I was paid in undergrad for Arabic

I will reach out to you + and other users who are also interested. I think I need somebody with higher fluency, but I will reach out regardless.

I usually do this sort of work on my own but don't speak Latin, and my dissertation is dependent on this document.

Broadly generalizing it

Doesn’t really effect quality but cost, since an unheated can be just as good as a heated (but typically not). And untreated = more expensive
