PREPARATION OF A MANUSCRIPT

These instructions are intended to provide guidance to contributors to The Journal for the History of Analytical Philosophy when preparing an article manuscript for publication. Please read these general instructions carefully before beginning the final preparation of your manuscript. This document presents you with a model for the final layout. It is by no means original and authors may find similarities with sets of instructions given by other publishers. It is nonetheless to be complied with thoroughly.

1. INTRODUCTION

We kindly ask you to submit your document in Word format, RTF, Open Office format, or PDF. (Texts need to be easily accessible by a number of different persons involved in the refereeing and the revision of manuscript. For this reason, only the FINAL VERSION of a manuscript may be submitted in LaTeX format. Authors are required to consult with the editors to confirm at which point of the editorial process they are welcome to do so.)

2. PREPARING THE MANUSCRIPT FOR ANONYMOUS REViEW

To ensure the integrity of the anonymous peer-reviewing process for submissions, every effort should be made to prevent the identities of the authors and reviewers from being known to each other. This involves the authors, editors, and reviewers (who upload documents as part of their review) checking to see if the following steps have been taken with regard to the text and the file properties:

• The authors of the document have deleted their names from the text. References to the author's own work should be excluded.
• With Microsoft Office documents, author identification should also be removed from the properties for the file (see under File in Word), by clicking on the following, beginning with File on the main menu of the Microsoft application: File > Save As > Tools (or Options with a Mac) > Security > Remove personal information from file properties on save > Save.
• With PDFs, the authors' names should also be removed from Document Properties found under File on Adobe Acrobat's main menu.

Where only a reference is provided, do not use a footnote, but give the reference in the main text, in parenthesis. In-text references (main text or footnotes) do not use "p." or "pp.":  (Raven 1998, 36).  Our preference is for exact page-ranges, rather than, e.g., "63ff": (Marion 2006, 63–72).
