CITATION GUIDELINES
To save unnecessary delay, contributors are asked to observe the following guidelines:
MSS. should be submitted electronically in Microsoft Word. Text, quotations, and
notes should be double-spaced. Notes should be in footnotes. In each chapter, note numbering
should begin over with 1.
1.
The University of Chicago Manual of Style, 16th Edition, is to be consulted on
general questions of style.
2.
Authors must secure written permission to use any images they propose to
accompany their manuscripts.
3.
Extended quotations from languages other than English should be given in
English and not in the foreign language. Quotations longer than four lines should be
italicized, indented, and without quotation marks.
4.
Titles of books and periodicals should be italicized. Titles of articles should be
enclosed in quotation marks and not underlined or italicized. Arabic numerals should
ordinarily be used for all volume numbers of printed books, journals, and manuscripts.
5.
The first time an author is cited in the text, his/her full (first and last) name should
be given. Thereafter, only the last name is used. All caps are not used for authors’ names.
6.
Do not use ibid. or op.cit. in footnotes. Use the author’s last name or, in case of
more than one work by the same author, the author’s last name and a key word from the
work’s title.
7.
The font for the body of the manuscript should be 12 point Times New Roman
and 10 point Times New Roman for footnotes.
8.
Double spacing should be utilized throughout the main body of the manuscript
and in the footnotes.
