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.
