Contributions, whether papers or discussion notes, should be sent as electronic attachments to the Editor at: s.clucas@bbk.ac.uk. Please consult with the editor if you are unable to submit material electronically. Papers, including literature surveys and review articles should be 5,000 to 10,000 words. Please contact the editor first if you wish to submit material that falls outside this guideline. All papers submitted to the journal are subject to independent and anonymous peer review, and should be prepared accordingly.

Style
Please submit essays double-spaced in 12 pt Times New Roman. Pages should be formatted as A4. Single quotation-marks should be used for all quotations and article titles (with double quotation marks for quotes-within-quotes). Quotations of more than three lines should be indented and do not require quotation marks. Subheadings should be in bold type, and should not be centred. When quoting from non-English texts please translate into English with the original in a footnote (or, if brief, italicized in brackets after the quotation, e.g.: "'the motion of the elements depends on the medium' (elementorum motus a medio pendet)." All references should be in footnote rather than endnote format. Please use square-brackets for all authorial interpolations, including ellipses in quotations. When using dashes as punctuation please use en dashes (rather than em dashes) and leave one space either side of the dash.
