Guidelines for Papers Submitted to

ANALECTA HUSSERLIANA and PHENOMENOLOGICAL INQUIRY

Updated March 2, 2009

PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW ALL OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS

 

1 )    Papers must be sharply typed. NO PHOTOCOPIES. We require a printed copy of your paper as well as a copy of your paper on CD (in any word processing format).  Please write the following information on your CD:  Your name; the date that you sent the CD; The conference at which your paper was presented; the filename of the CD, which should include a keyword from your paper’s title as well as the file’s suffix or extension. 

2 )    Papers must be typed double-spaced.

3 )    The pages of the paper should be numbered.

4 )    The author's name should appear at the top of the first page over the title of the paper; both name and title should be typed in capital letters and centered.

        The author's institution or town should be given at the end of the body of the paper, before any "NOTES" or  “REFERENCES."

        The author's address should be typed at the very end of the paper, after any "NOTES" or "REFERENCES."  See example below.

5)     PLEASE give, on the first mention, the first name or initial(s) of all authors and persons mentioned in the text--except great historical figures--to help us prepare the Index of Names.

6 )    NOTES are to be placed at the end of the paper, and not at the foot of the page.

        If you prefer, you may use the system of citation whereby author and page number are given in parentheses in the body of the text with all bibliographic information being then given in "REFERENCES" at the end of the paper--a bibliographic alphabetized list of authors with their work(s) following their names.

        NOT ACCEPTABLE is the system of citation whereby works are listed and numbered at the end of the paper in the order of their being cited, with the works then being cited by their numbers in parentheses. This system may save the author some work, but it is unfriendly to the reader.

7)     "NOTES" are to be made in the following form:

        Books:       1 Richard Bonhomme, Art and Intrigue on the Left Bank, 2 vols., ed. John

                                Smith and trans. Mary Jones, Boreal Studies 9 (2nd ed., Juneau: Klondike

                                Press, 1950), Vol. I, pp. 2-4.

                            2 Ibid.

        Articles:           3 W .T. de Bary, "Chinese Despotism and the Confucian Ideal: A

Seventeenth-Century View," in Chinese Thought and Institutions, ed. John    Fairbank (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1957), p. 163.

4 Henry G. Skaja, "Ethics in the Confucian Tradition: The Thought of Mencius and Wang Yang-Ming," Philosophy East and West 44: 3 (July 1994), p. 560.

5 de Bary, op. cit., p. 165.

8)     Citations. in the text should be made with a superscripted number--which is to follow punctuation, quotation marks, and parentheses.     

               . . . not being able to transcend finiteness, save for rare moments.16

               Pure consciousness believes itself  “quite easily exempt from loss or change."5

Or   Pure consciousness believes itself  "quite easily exempt from loss or change".5

    (In an earlier work he had said quite the opposite.)2

 

9)     Authors submitting papers in English who are not fluent in English must find a competent translator or at least have their work examined by someone truly fluent in both languages, ideally someone familiar with philosophical and scientific language in English. If at all possible, authors should quote the English translations of works written in other languages.

10) Authors writing in other languages should superscript citations given in the text as instructed in Guideline 8 above. They should follow the accepted form for "NOTES" in those languages. They should take care, however, to cite English-language titles correctly, i.e., using the English rules for the capitalization of titles: The initial word and all nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, and interjections are to be capitalized; articles, prepositions, and conjunctions are not capitalized.

12)  NEW REQUIREMENT OF SPRINGER, OUR PUBLISHER:

Each paper should be preceded by an abstract (10-15 lines long) that summarizes the content.  This abstract should be in the same computer file as the manuscript.  The abstract will appear online at Springer Link and will be available with unrestricted access.  This allows unregistered users to read the title, name of author and abstract as a teaser for the complete paper/chapter.  The abstract will only appear in the printed edition if this is the style of the particular book series.
