lSp Symposiums have a long tradition. The first Symposium was held at Univer-
sity of Vienna, Austria. This Symposium determined the themes and trends for the
discussions. Further Symposiums took part each two years in such countries, as Den-
mark, France, Belgium, Finland, Hungary, Norway, Italy, Great Britain and Germany.
The organizers of the following symposiums observe traditions, established at the first
Symposium. The first printed journal of the Symposium was Fachsprache published in
1979.
There were 17 lSp Symposiums in the Western Europe. The 18th Symposium for
the first time took place in Russia, at perm State National Research University in Au-
gust 2011. perm University is the first Higher School in the Urals, founded in 1916. The
Symposium was hosted by the Department of English philology of the Faculty of
Modern Foreign languages and literature.
The Symposium theme was “Special language and Innovation in Multilingual
World”. It reflected important issues of multilingual professional communication re-
lated to terminology and terminography, professional communication, special lan-
guage training, translation and lSp. These issues form the content of the keynote lec-
tures and presentations of the participants. The programme of the Symposium includ-
ed more than 80 presentations and 2 colloquia.
The main aim of the Symposium correlated with the following purposes: to study
anthropology and ecology of the language for special purposes, to research the possibil-
ity of its planning and prognostication, and to train students by means of modern effec-
tive methods and technologies. Within the programme of the Symposium the partici-
pants got the possibility to get a picture of the system of special knowledge about the
cognition of the world and the presentation of this picture in the special language.
There were 4 world known keynote speakers at the Symposium. prof. Gerhard
Budin, University of Vienna, Austria, made a presentation “Designing and Imple-
menting Strategies of Global, Multilingual “Disaster Communication”. He dis-
cussed the issue of the ‘language of risk’. In his presentation, through the analysis
of a multi-annual data, the author demonstrated the special nature of concepts in
disaster management. He suggested that natural disasters (earthquakes, tsunamis,
volcano eruptions, etc.) as well as human-induced disasters (oil-spills, nuclear di-
sasters, etc.) were increasingly communicated and discussed in the world events. In
addition to the presentation of the research results in applied lSp-research, termi-
nology work, lexicographical activities, and domain-specific corpus linguistics, the

author reported on ongoing research work and gave an outlook of future research
perspectives.
A further keynote presentation of prof. Sergiusz Grinev-Griniewicz, Chairman
of the TK -55 “Terminology”, Moscow Humanities pedagogical Institute, Russia,
University of Białystok, poland, was concentrated on the terminological aspect of
language policy. He tried to discover and to describe the basic conceptual system and
terminological field of the social sphere, called language policy. The author pointed
out that there was already quite a substantial amount of publications on the language
policy, but quite a few touched upon terminological aspects of the subject, aside from
mentioning that in the area of respective terminology there were many ambiguities,
complicated by the fact that the field has a different terminological structure in dif-
ferent languages.
prof. Johan Myking. Department of linguistics, literature and Aesthetic Studies
University of Bergen, Norway, tackled the issues of lSp planning. He drew out five
parameters of special language planning, such as domain dynamics, parallel language
use, horizontal vs. vertical specialisation, conversion and subversion, indeterminacy.
The author discussed the following statement: “language can always be exposed to
‘management’” (laurén & al. 2008, thesis 10). He suggested that this thesis would be
crucial to the social rationale of Slp, and its scope as well as its limitations would be
explored.
The next keynote speaker prof. Boris proskurnin, Dean of the Faculty of Modern
Foreign languages and literatures, perm State National Research University, devoted
his research to an original reconstruction of Dickens’s narration in the aspect of special
language. The speaker intended to show what peculiar features of speciality consist in,
and in so doing demonstrate how they influence literary and lSp analyses.
The programme of the Symposium included 2 Colloquia. Colloquium 1“Lan-
guage policy and LSP planning”. The coordinator and organizer – prof. Heribert picht,
Denmark. Since 2001 the International Institute for Terminology Research (IITF) has
organised colloquia within the organisational framework of the European lSp Sympo-
sium which takes place every two years. The general aim of these colloquia is to offer a
platform for discussion of modern theoretical and applied issues within the field of
terminology. prof. Heribert picht took a thoroughgoing cognitive view of the concept
‘parallel language’. For this purpose, he concentrated on the description of three main
concepts: domain, domain loss and parallel language use. He also offered some propos-
als and measures in connection with the implementation of parallel language use in a
language community.
participants of Colloquium 1: Ass. prof. Viktor Smith, Ass. prof. Henrik Selsøe
Sørensen, Copenhagen Business School, FairSpeak, Denmark, theme “When cogni-
tive sciences meet real life: Decoding the semiotic cocktail of food labels from a fairness
perspective”. Respondents: Dr. Niina Nissilä, Vasa University, Finland, Dr. Serguey
Shelov, Russian language Institute, Moscow, Russia. Dr. Albina Auksoriute (Head of
the Centre of Terminology; the Institute of the lithuanian language) lithuania “lan-
guage policy in lithuania - State-of-the-art and social conditions and theoretical
foundation”. Respondent: prof. Dr. Sergiusz Griniewicz, University of Bialystok, po-
land. prof. Dr. Christer laurén, Vasa University, Finland, ”Nordic language policy – a
long tradition which is still very much alive”. prof. Dr.h.c. Heribert picht, Denmark

Köln, Germany ”localisation – an issue of terminology planning. Theoretical foun-
dation and practical implications”. Respondents: prof. Dr. Sue Ellen Wright, Kent
State University USA, prof. Dr. Sergiusz Griniewicz, University of Bialystok, poland.
Colloquium 2 “The Many Faces of Analysis in Cognitive-Communicative Termi-
nology”. The coordinator and organizer – prof. Dr. larissa Manerko, Moscow lo-
monosov State University, Russia. The colloquium follows the tradition of presenting
the achievements of the Russian school of Terminology at European Symposiums on
language for Special purposes (XIV (2003) – Great Britain, XV (2005) - Italy, XVI
(2007) – Germany, XVII (2009) – Denmark). This colloquium is intended to show the
variability of approaches in cognitive methodology advocated by the nature of terms,
their semantics and conceptualization, terminological systems and relationships be-
tween parts of it, the possibility to distinguish cognitive systems affecting professional
discourse. The colloquium consists of two parts. In her presentation prof. larissa
Manerko developed the question of the relation between mental medium and verbal
medium. The author addresses the terminological domain of knowledge.
participants of Colloquium 2: Dianova Galina “Scientific notions as semiotic sys-
tems”; Kazyulina Marina “On the experiment with the English term “power”; Kozha-
nova Elena “On metaphoric representations in English terms of herbs and medical
plants”; Tkach Svetlana “Metaphor as a means of meaning construction”; Kupova
Julia “The development of conceptual analysis for the description of term semantics in
medical and biological sphere”.
In considering the issues of lSp by means of innovative views, a particular feature
of modern researches in special language theory and practice has been revealed, that is
anthropocentrism. The most important contribution of the Symposium presentations
to lSp theory was the emphasis put on the role of man in lSp communication. We
notice the significant shift to studying the connection between special languages and
the human mind.
At first glance, it is typical for any kind of modern research to be oriented to the
man. However, the idea of anthropocentrism becomes a dominant in the researches of
special languages and professional communication. From this perspective, special lan-
guages are seen as the primary medium thinking about and describing the reality as well
as a means of knowledge transfer among people.
Despite the keynotes presented by famous experts in lSp theory and practice,
there is a further generation of researchers who took much of their inspiration from the
basis laid by the ideas of lSp founders. Special attention is paid to terminological is-
sues. Besides the interest in terminology, the researchers are concerned with questions
about cognitive aspect of special languages, linguistic features of special discourse,
translation and lSp and innovation in lSp training. The researches in this field re-
vealed their interest in conceptual analysis. The most significant and innovative contri-

bution was done by the researchers of lSp training looking at the actual uses of special
language and the pragmatics of lSp. They treat lSp as a real day-to-day activity.
One more important tendency is evident. Modern lSp study is marked by three
impulses in the aspect of the future of terminology as a science. They are cognitive view
on professional communication, special knowledge transfer and interlanguage profes-
sional communication by means of translation. These topics have been central to vari-
ous debates round the language for special purposes.
Finally, the programme of the Symposium included presentations that embrace a
wide range of issues of translation of special texts – scientific, literary, poetic and busi-
ness. The intention of the researchers in this field is to prove that translation study de-
serves to be considered on a theoretical level based by means of theories of special
communication. Within this work, translation is regarded as an intercognitive process
that presupposes a special intellectual activity. An original feature of the papers is their
attack on the theories of equivalence in translation studies.
We hope that XVIII Symposium has represented the modern stage in the develop-
ment of lSp theory. It was significant in shaping the trends and the directions of lSp
theory and practice. The Symposium has proved that lSp is a highly applicable field of
knowledge.
