: isnt that a pleonasm ? manuscripts, as the term says, are expected to be handwritten.G.Washington´s handwritten m. cannot convince me. Pls see my entries on pleonasms which confirm that people not knowing the meaning of manus will continue using the word

Well, how about consulting Wikipedia? Same story. Nowadays the term "manuscripts" encompasses other items, not necessarily texts, let alone handwritten papers. Anyhow, neither my answer, nor yours got to be selected, so why go on)))? Cheers!

handwriting foundation may just as well mean that the foundation in question preserves handwritten papers, docs. of famous persons, such as Goethe, Cervantes etc. It is not exclusively concentrating on their analysis of course.

For some speakers, handwritten manuscript is clearly pleonastic, while for others it is not, but just means 'handwritten paper'. Safety pleonasm. 10 A Google

The Misha
: This is sheer nonsense. What does handwriting analysis have to do with manuscript collections?/I am criticizing a blatantly incorrect translation. There's nothing personal in it. Thank you for your unsolicited advice on how I should chose my language.

To begin with, there is no hint in the text to be translated that collecting is referred to. Secondly, you are well advised to use a more moderate language when criticizing your peers.
