Instructions for the authors

Manuscript submission

Manuscripts for submission have to be sent par e-mail (Word and PDF files) to kernos@uliege.be. A printed version by postal mail is unnecessary. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed. The editorial norms below are not mandatory at the submission stage, except the use of a UNICODE font. Once the submitted manuscript is accepted, the norms must be applied to the final version.

Manuscript preparation (once accepted)

Manuscripts must be typeset in a 12-point UNICODE font. Bold fonts should be avoided (use italics not underscoring to signal italics). Additional space should not be inserted routinely between paragraphs or between notes; use subheads when necessary to signal a division between sections of the text. Notes should be typeset as footnotes (after punctuation in English). Bibliography and captions should be placed at the very end. Illustrations will be sent as separate files (with copyright). An abstract of 1000 signs maximum will be provided.

Citation practice in brief

In the footnotes, proper names are in lower-case for ancient authors, in small caps for modern ones. Arabic numerals are to be used for part and section numbers. This is true for journal volume numbers, for volume numbers and other subdivisions in a series. It is also the case for the subdivisions of classical texts. Roman numerals are to be used for volume numbers in a multivolume work, be it ancient or modern.

Primary sources

– Author, Opus III, 2, 8 or Author, Opus, 3.2.8

– Author, fr. 2 (Editor) or Editor

The first occurrence of a reference is given in full. Then it can be abbreviated (LSJ or OCD).

Regarding the epigraphic evidence, collections are mentioned in italics by the more common abbreviations: CIL, IG, Syll.³, OGIS, ILS, SEG…

Examples : CIL XIII 8553; ILS II 5318; IG XII 3, 328, l. 20; IG II 2, 1792; IG II² 452; SEG 40, 835
