Abstract:

This volume comprises contributions originally presented at the 15th
European Symposium on Languages for Special Purposes held at the University
of Bergamo on 29 August - 2 September 2005. The volume is divided into four
parts: Approaches to Terminological Theories; Terms in Discourse; Knowledge
Elicitation, Ordering and Management; Term Extraction and Terminographical
Work.

The research presented in the various contributions to this volume clearly
indicates that terminology as an inter- and transdisciplinary field of
knowledge is firmly developing its theoretical foundations and practical
applications in accordance with and within the framework of its overall
goal: to ensure and to augment the quality of communication with
professional content.
