Kristupo Ernsto Tydkės 1747 m. gruodžio 12 d. prašymas: nauji faktai apie Halės universiteto Lietuvių kalbos seminarą

Birutė Triškaitė

Abstract

    Straipsnyje analizuojamas ir publikuojamas Prūsijos kultūros paveldo Slaptajame valstybiniame archyve (vok. Geheimes Staatsarchiv Preußischer Kulturbesitz) Berlyne rastas dokumentas, atskleidžiantis naujų faktų apie 1727 m. Halės universitete įsteigtą Lietuvių kalbos seminarą. Tai šio universiteto Teologijos fakulteto absolvento ir Petro Gotlybo Milkaus (Peter Gottlieb Mielcke, 1695–1753) posūnio bei Kristijono Gotlybo Milkaus (Christian Gottlieb Mielcke, 1733–1807) suvestinio brolio Kristupo Ernsto Tydkės (Christoph Ernst Tiedtke, 1722–po 1772) prašymas, rašytas 1747 m. gruodžio 12 d. ir adresuotas Slaptajai tarybai (vok. Geheimer Rat) Berlyne. Halės universiteto Lietuvių kalbos seminaro istorijai šis archyvinis šaltinis reikšmingas tuo, kad teikia duomenų beveik nedokumentuotam baigiamajam šio seminaro veiklos laikotarpiui. Remiantis K. E. Tydkės prašyme užfiksuota informacija, straipsnyje atskleidžiama, kad po 1740 m., kurie istoriografijoje įprastai laikomi Halės universiteto Lietuvių kalbos seminaro uždarymo metais, vis dėlto būta pastangų toliau tęsti šio seminaro veiklą.
