Chapter Die erste für Russen gedruckte Deutsch-Grammatik (1713) und deren geographische Nomina propria aus Preußen
Abstract
The First German Grammar printed for Russians (Berlin, 1713) and its Geographical Names from Prussia Identifying some unexpected in the text geographical names from Prussia, the article discusses the possibility that the pseudonymous Deutsche Grammatica printed in Berlin explicitly for Russian students could have been compiled by the Huguenot professor linguae Gallicae and geographer Isaac Briand (1664–1747), who had been called to Berlin from Königsberg (Prussia) in 1705 and later on was head of his own privileged by the king, but short-lived military academy for nobles.
