Summary/Abstract: This year (2003) the second Archivum Lithuanicum scholarship was awarded to Šiauliai University doctoral student Robertas Gedrimas. This scholarship was established in 2002 by Mr. Robin Neumann of Chicago. It is awarded to a graduate student, either a master's or a doctoral student, engaged in research on the external history of some language. The current recipient, Robertas Gedrimas, is focusing his research mostly on the linguistic attitudes of Jurgis Ambraziejus Pabrëþa (1771- 1849) and on Pabrëþa's derivational theory for new geographical, botanical, and other scientific terms. The first recipient of the Archivum Lithuanicum scholarship (2002) was Vilma Zubaitienë, who is publishing an article in this volume about the manner in which Kristijonas Gotlybas Milkus edited, corrected and enlarged (1800) a dictionary by Pilypas Ruigys (Lithuanian-German Dictionary, 1747), and about Milkus' attempts to improve the lexicographic method of Ruigys.
