anthropos(at)guest.arnes.si

After receiving the electronic version of the proposed contribution, the editorial board sends author an e-mail confirming the submission of contribution, which then enters the review process. Author is informed of the reviewers’ decision in up to 3 months after submission. Author is requested to do the proofreading of the text if contribution fails to meet the layout and language quality standards. The author’s response, with or without corrections, should be sent within 7 days. After publication, one issue of journal is sent to author’s surface address, as provided on the first page of proposed contribution, and an electronic offprint to the provided electronic address.

Contributions can be written in Slovene or any major foreign language, and should not exceed 10.000 words (60.000 characters).

The first page should contain:

• Title and subtitle of contribution (with translation into a major foreign language)
• Name(s) of author(s), surface and email address

The title (and subtitle, if necessary) is written in bold type, book titles in italics and article titles within “double quotation marks”. No blank lines between paragraphs are to be applied. New paragraphs are introduced by shifting the left margin to the right (using the TAB key). Graphic design (style, framing, edges, pagination etc.) should not be applied. Uniform font style is used throughout the text (Times New Roman), the font size for the main body of the text is 12 and for footnotes 10. For notes, footnotes should be used; the same applies for quotation references, if quotation exceeds 40 words (see examples below). Otherwise, the “author-date” style of referencing should be used in the main body of the text by inserting the author surname, year of publication and page number in brackets at the end of quotation (Nietzsche, 1992: 31). Entire bibliography should be listed in alphabetical order and according to the year of publication (if more works by the same author are listed) at the end of contribution under the heading “Literature”, and should be limited to the scope of works directly referred to in text.
