N2 - This article introduces the field of terminology, which often considers the Austrian engineer EugenWüster as its founder in the 1930s, although important principles go back in time, in particular to 18th and 19th century botanists, zoologistsand chemists. The contributions of Wüster are presented, as well as the alternative theories, with their criticism of Wüster’s position, whichcame to influence the field after 1990. The article further suggests that domain-analytic studies based on epistemological studies of knowledgedomains seems to have been overlooked. The relations between terminology and knowledge organization are addressed, and closer cooperationbetween the two fields is called for.
