The following links show L-shaped marks, apparently combining

words written in romaji. Are these novel characters, or can they
be identified with existing Unicode characters? Are they really
combining?

These could be 231C and 231D, or 02F9 and 02FA (especially if they
actually do indicate tone), or possibly 2308 and 2309. I don't suppose
20E7 is suitable. One of them looks a bit like one of the proposed New
Testament punctuation characters, pipelined for 2E00..2E0C, which is
perhaps appropriate for a book "with examples like "a student of
divinity at Oxford University.""
