Svrha rada: da se pruži uvid u život i delo danskog funkcionera i kolekcionara knjiga Christiana Friedricha Temlera (1717–1780) i da se analizira jedan od njegova dva rukopisa koji se odnosi na slovenske narode i jezike. Reč je o beležnici koja se pod imenom "Collectanea om adskillige slaviske Sprog, især det illyriske" čuva u Kraljevskoj biblioteci u Kopenhagenu, signatura: Ny kongelig Samling 175 – 4°. Metodologija: 1) navešće se i analiziraće se biobibliografski podaci koji su sakupljeni iz raznih izvora i koji doprinose upotpunjavanju slike o Temlerovoj filološkoj i filoslovenskoj delatnosti; 2) razmotriće se razlozi Temlerovog interesovanja za slovenske narode i jezike, kao i poreklo njegovog poznavanja "ilirskog" jezika; 3) biće delimično uzet u obzir jedan drugi Temlerov rukopis, tzv. ilirski rečnik, "Dictionarium illyricum/slavonicum" koji se takođe nalazi u Kraljevskoj biblioteci u Kopenhagenu (GKS 2071 – 4°); 4) biće analiziran Temlerov rukopis "Collectanea" (NKS 175 – 4°) u svojim raznim segmentima, kako po pogledu materijala, tako i po sadržini. Rezultati i zaključak: 1) analizom sakupljenog materijala upotpuniće se slika o Temlerovoj filološkoj delatnosti, čime će biti ispravljeni nepravilni podaci, a drugi upotpunjeni; 2) analizom rukopisa NKS 175 – 4° dobija se slika o Temlerovim beleškama koje vode ka novim pretpostavkama o mogućoj Temlerovoj nameri da napiše delo o poreklu Slovena i slovenskih jezika; 3) isto tako rukopis o kome je reč
pruža uvid u Temlerove izvore koji vode ka definisanju porekla Temlerovog znanja "ilirskog" jezika.The aim of this work is to provide an insight into the life and work of the
Danish civil servant and book collector Friedrich Christian Temler (1717-
1780) and to analyse one of his two manuscripts relating to Slav peoples and languages. It is a manuscript which is kept in the Royal Library of Copenhagen, signature: NyKongeligSamling175-4°, under the name of "Collectanea omAdskilligeslaviskaSprog, isærdetillyriske". Methodology: 1) bibliographical data collected from various sources will be mentioned and analysed, since they contribute to completing the picture of Temler’s Slavophile and philological activity; 2) the motives behind Temler’s interest in Slav nations and languages will be considered as well as the origin of his knowledge of the "Illyrian" language; 3) another Temler’s manuscript, the Illyrian/Slavonian dictionary, "Dictionarium slavonicum/Illiricum" kept in the Royal Library in Copenhagen (GKS 2071-4°) will be partly taken into account; 4) Temler’s manuscript "Collectanea" (NKS 175-4° ) will be analysed in its various segments, both in terms of the material and content. Results and conclusion:1) the analysis of the above-mentioned material will provide a comprehensive picture of Temler’s philological activity, which will amend certain inaccurate or incomplete data; 2) the analysis of the ms. NKS175-4° will gives a clearer picture of Temler’s notes, which will lead to new assumptions about the possibility that Temler intended to write a work on the origin of the Slavs and the Slav languages; 3) in addition, the manuscript in question provides an insight into Temler’s sources that in turn shed light on the origin of Temler’s knowledge of the "Illyrian" language
