Abstract

The students’ ever growing interest in the study of specialist terminologies for well defined
purposes (documentation and first-hand access to the literature of any specific field, to name
only extremely few of them) has exercised a positive impact on the making of new teaching
materials provided by Romanian teachers of English. It is true, there has been at least a
twenty-five-year-old tradition in the art and the practice of compiling textbooks of English
for specific purposes, irrespective of the purpose in focus.
Initiators in the devising of such textbooks are a group of dedicated academics,
including Andrei Bantaş from Bucharest University and Nicolae Bejan from Galaţi
University who published Limba engleză pentru şţiină şi tehnică as early as 1981. Ever since,
Romanian methodologists have contributed to the field with more and more complex and
useful such books (Blându, 1982)1
