Guidelines for Submissions

1.      Manuscripts should be typed on one side of the page, double-spaced and submitted in triplicate - one copy for each of the two reviewers and one for the journal office.

2.      Submissions should be original, hitherto unpublished, and not being considered for publication elsewhere. Once a submission is accepted, its copyright is transferred to the publisher.

3.      Footnotes should be typed single-spaced, and placed at the bottom of each page. Page number(s), the author’s name and the year of publication should be stated clearly. Manuscript styles should be consistent; authors are advised to consult the MLA Handbook for proper formats.

4.      Chinese names and book titles in the text should be romanized according to the “modified” Wade-Giles or the pinyin system, and then, where they first appear, followed immediately by the Chinese characters and translations. Translations of Chinese terms obvious to the readers (like wenxue), however, are not necessary.

5.      There should be a separate reference section containing all the works referred to in the body of the article. Pertinent information should be given on the variety of editions available, as well as the date and place of publication to facilitate use by the readers.

6.      Care should be taken by authors to avoid identifying themselves on the first page, in the top or bottom margins, or in footnotes. A separate cover page with the title of the article, the name of the author and his/her institutional affiliation should be provided.

7.      Final versions of articles are to be submitted in a hard copy and a computer diskette.

8.      Book reviews should follow the same format as that for submitted articles: They should be typed and double-spaced, giving at the outset the full citation for the work reviewed, plus information about special features (like appendices and illustrations) and prices. Unsolicited book reviews are as a rule not accepted.

9.      Besides original articles and book reviews, review articles related to the evaluation or interpretation of a major substantive or methodological issue may also be submitted.

10.  Contributors of articles will receive four complimentary copies of the journal; these must be shared in the case of joint authorship.

11.  In all questionable cases, authors are advised to consult recent issues of the journal or direct enquiries to the Editor.
