Abstract:

"Terminology throughout History: A discipline in the making" is a
collection of individual contributions by leading terminology scholars
from around the globe who describe historical developments of
terminology as a discipline and a field of practice. Its aim is to
provide a comprehensive written record of the history of terminology
as it evolves from a set of practices to a discipline in its own
right. Terminology has witnessed considerable theoretical and
methodological developments in recent decades. These changes need to
be understood within the context of their historical foundations. The
book has three main focus areas. The first examines the prehistory of
terminology, going back to the Ancient World, leading to the second,
where the pioneers of modern terminology, Eugen Wüster in particular,
are placed in their historical context. The final section is an
account of how terminology developed in some twenty countries and
language communities.
