From a passage about a manuscript discovery: "The recent discovery of a possible eighth-century manuscript is certainly intriguing. However, the scholars who immediately proclaimed its authenticity may have acted with a haste that overlooks significant linguistic anomalies. A more measured approach is required before we rewrite the history of that era."
The author's attitude toward the scholars' haste is best described as one of
- measured doubt tempered by genuine scholarly interest in the find.
- outright hostility toward the scholars and their conclusions.
- warm endorsement of the scholars' swift judgment.
- complete indifference to the authenticity debate.
- cautious agreement with the scholars' eventual conclusion.
