Culture and Religion encourages article submissions on theory, methodology, and detailed case studies in the academic study of religion and culture, and will particularly welcome innovative papers which seek to re-examine and develop critical perspectives in this area.

Articles for submission and books for review should be sent to the Assistant Editor: Dr Paul-F Tremlett, Study of Religions, School of Oriental and African Studies, Thornhaugh Street, Russell Square, London WC1H 0XG, Tel: 020 7898 4783, E-mail: pt10@soas.ac.uk

Manuscripts should be between 5,000–8,000 words in length. All submitted articles must be original and not be under consideration by any other journal. Articles are sent to two anonymous referees for comment before a decision is made on publication. The following guidelines should be conformed to when preparing an article for submission to Culture and Religion. Articles which are not submitted in the correct format will be returned to the author for modification before being read.

Authors should submit three copies of double-spaced, single-sided typescript on A4 paper with margins on all four sides of at least one inch (2.5cm). The type should be of sufficient quality for photocopying. All pages should be numbered. A title sheet should be attached which includes the title of the paper, the author's name(s), and the author's current address. The manuscript itself should contain the title of the paper, but not the author's name. An abstract of 100–150 words should be included on a separate sheet, along with a short note of biographical details. Once an editorial decision has been made to proceed with publication, the author will need to supply the manuscript in electronic form (preferably formatted), for example on disk or by email. Can authors please ensure that their contact address details are clearly marked on the outside of all packages they are sending to Editors.

Tables and figures should be kept as simple as possible and put on a separate sheet(s), with captions and tables typed out. The approximate position of tables and figures should be indicated in the text (e.g. 'Table 1 about here').
