Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines. Make sure to read and check all boxes carefully (articles that do not comply with the Atlantis style sheet will be returned for resubmission before being sent out to referees):

    §1.1 ☐ Personal data, a bionote of approx. 60 words and an institutional address and phone number have been provided in a separate file.

    §1.2 ☐ The manuscript is written in English and uses either British or American English consistently. A Spanish translation of the title, abstract and keywords is provided just after the English title, abstract and keywords.

    §1.3 ☐ The text is within the word limit set for articles (6,000-8,000 words, including abstract, keywords and references) or book review articles (3,500-4,500 words).

    §1.4 ☐ A 100-200 word abstract has been included in a single paragraph, without bibliographical references in parenthetical form, written in an 11-point Times New Roman font, 1.5 spacing and left indented (0.5 cm).

    §1.5 ☐ Just after the abstract, a list of up to six keywords in English is provided in an 11-point Times New Roman font, separated with semicolons and without a period at the end.

    §2.1 ☐ The text is submitted in 1.5 line spacing except for footnotes, which are single-spaced. A 12-point Times New Roman font has been used for the main text and an 11-point Times New Roman font for the abstract, keywords, footnotes and indented quotations. The first line of each paragraph is indented 0.5 cm, with the exception of the first line in the first paragraph of each section. The first line of all footnotes is also indented 0.5 cm.

    §2.2 ☐ The main title has been placed the top and centre of the page on which the text begins. The first letter of the first word and all other significant words (nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs) as well as proper nouns have been capitalised. The last word has been capitalised too. There is no period after the title.

    §2.3 ☐ Section headings begin from the left margin, with no period at the end, and are preceded by Arabic numerals followed by a period (e.g., 1., 1.1.). Small caps have been used for section headings and only content words have been capitalised.

    §2.4 ☐ Tables and figures, if any, have been be numbered consecutively and referred to by their numbers within the text (e.g., as we see in example/table/figure 1).

    §2.5 ☐ Commas and periods (but not colons and semicolons) have always been placed immediately before closing quotation marks, unless a parenthetical reference intervenes. This rule has been applied even for quotations of a single word. Commas have not been used before “and” and “or” in a series of three or more. A comma and a dash have never been used together.

    §2.6 ☐ Whole numbers from zero to one hundred and numbers followed by hundred, thousand, hundred thousand, million or billion have been spelled out. All numbers beginning a sentence have also been spelled out.

    §2.7. ☐ Centuries have been spelled out (e.g., the twenty-first century). Standard dating has been used (e.g., April 13, 1990). No comma has been inserted between month and year when no day is given (e.g., May 1990). Decades have been expressed in numerals (e.g., the 1870s, the 1920s).

    §2.8 ☐ Italics have been used for emphasis only when strictly necessary. They have also been used for foreign words, technical terms and linguistic forms (words, phrases, letters) cited as examples or as subjects of discussion. Titles of books, plays, periodicals, films, television and radio programmes, paintings, drawings, photographs, statues or other works of art have been italicised.

    §2.9 ☐ The first letter of the first word and all of the principal words—including nouns, adjectives, adverbs and verbs in hyphenated compounds, but not articles, prepositions and conjunctions—in titles of publications, lectures or papers have been capitalised. In mentioning magazines, journals or newspapers (e.g., the Gentleman’s Magazine), an initial definite article has not been treated as a part of the title. References to standard parts of a specific work, such as preface, acknowledgements, appendix, chapter, etc. have not been capitalised (e.g., as discussed in chapter four).

    §2.10 ☐ Double quotation marks (“ ”) have been used to enclose quoted speech or writing when they are run into the text. They have also been used for titles of articles, book chapters and poems. Straight double quotation marks (" ") have not been used. For quotations within run-in quotations and within titles of articles or book chapters single quotation marks (‘ ’) have been used (e.g., “‘Fractions of Men’: Engendering Amputation in Victorian Culture”). 

    §2.11 ☐ All quotations correspond exactly with the originals in wording, spelling, capitalisation and internal punctuation. Spelling errors in quotations have been indicated by means of [sic]. Emphases in quotations have been indicated by means of italics and flagged up within the corresponding parenthetical reference as either “italics added” or “italics in the original”. Parenthetical references have always been placed at the end of the clause, before the punctuation mark—e.g., a “nice suggestion” (Russell 2016, 36). Second-hand quotations have been used only sparingly and referenced according to the journal’s style guidelines.

    §2.12 ☐ Prose quotations up to about 75 words have been run into the surrounding text. Longer prose quotations have been set off, indented (0.5 cm) and never enclosed in quotation marks. An 11-point font has been used. Verse quotations of up to two lines have been run in, with the lines separated with a slash, leaving one space on either side ( / ). Longer verse quotations have been set off.

    §2.13 ☐ Three periods enclosed in square brackets […] have been used to indicate that part of a quotation has been deleted. This device has not been used to open or close quotations that are obviously complete syntactic fragments.

    §2.14 ☐ Em dash instead of parentheses has been used. No space has been left before or after them—e.g., “haunting ghosts of the past—slavery and its legacy—should be laid to rest before a better future can be built.”

    §2.15 ☐ Footnotes have only been used sparingly and only for authorial commentary that cannot be easily accommodated in the body of the text. They have not been used to give bibliographical references that can appear in parenthetical form within the text. They have been numbered, superscripted and placed after the closest punctuation mark. The first line of the footnote has been indented (0.5 cm) and the text of the footnote is single-spaced.

    §2.16 ☐ If any, lists of examples including sentences, have been listed, indented (0.5 cm) and written in an 11-point font thus:

    (1) Hello my name is Charlie. My town is xxx. (S5b4P)

    (2) Hello! Mr. and Mrs Edwards. I’m Julia and I live in xxx. (S210g5P)

    (3) Hello family! My name is Berta and my surname is Santos. (S1g6P)

    §3 ☐ All cited material has been included in the list of Works Cited and all entries conform to the Atlantis author-date reference system, based on the Chicago Manual of Style (16th edition). Latin reference tags have not been used in bibliographical citations (op cit., ibidem, etc.).

Author Guidelines

Before submitting an article, please make sure that your text observes the following guidelines. Articles that do not comply with the Atlantis style sheet will be returned for resubmission before being sent out to referees.

§ 1. External presentation

1.1. Submission

Authors must submit their contribution (as a Word file) as well as the following:

  • Atlantis checklist (click on "Add another file" after uploading the article or book review article, then choose the option "Other" in the "Article component" menu).
  • Metadata (in step 3 of the submission process, i.e. "Enter Metadata"). After introducing the Section, Title and Abstract of the contribution, it is essential to post a c. 60-word bionote by scrolling down to List of contributors, clicking on the blue triangle to the left of the author's name, then clicking on Edit to reach a window where it must be inserted.

All details of personal identification must be absent from the manuscript, as well as from the file properties. If necessary, the author's name should be replaced by "author" throughout the article.

Please follow the indications on the journal’s webpage, especially with regard to the metadata accompanying your submission:

www.atlantisjournal.org/index.php/atlantis/about/submissions#onlineSubmissions

1.2. Language

Manuscripts are to be submitted in English. Authors must consistently follow either British or American spelling conventions. A translation of the title, abstract and keywords in Spanish must be provided. For those contributors who do not handle Spanish, the Editors will provide the translation.

1.3. Length

For articles: 6,000-8,000 words (including abstract, keywords, footnotes and references); for book review articles: 3,000-4,500 words (including references).

1.4. Abstract (articles)

The first page of each article must include a title plus a 100-200 word summary. The abstract should be written in an 11-point Times New Roman font, 1.5 spacing, indented (0.5 cm) and positioned immediately before the body of the text. It should consist of one paragraph and contain no bibliographical reference in parenthetical form.

1.5. Keywords (articles)

Just after the abstract, append a list of up to six keywords in an 11-point Times New Roman font, separated with semi-colons, so that your contribution can be accurately classified by international reference indexes. Do not use a period at the end of the list of keywords.

 

§ 2. General stylistic, structural and formatting guidelines

All manuscripts should follow the author-date guidelines of the 16th edition of the Chicago Manual of Style unless otherwise specified.

2.1. Format

The text should be submitted in 1.5 line spacing, except for footnotes, which should be single-spaced. Use a 12-point Times New Roman font for the main text and an 11-point Times New Roman font for the abstract, keywords, footnotes and indented quotations.

The first line of each paragraph should be intended 0.5 cm (please use the indentation tool included in Word, not the tab key), with the exception of the first line in the first paragraph of each section. The first line of all footnotes should also be indented 0.5 cm.

2.2. Titles of contributions

Place them at the top and centre of the page on which the text begins. Capitalise only the first letter of the first word and all other significant words (nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs) as well as proper nouns. Always capitalise the last word. Do not use a period after titles.

2.3. Textual divisions and headings

Section headings should be used with discretion. They must begin from the left margin, with no period at the end. The use of Arabic numerals for headings is recommended. If absolutely necessary, further division within a section should follow the same format used for section headings. They must be preceded by Arabic numerals separated by a period (e.g., 1.1.). Do not capitalise headings in full (only content words should be in capital letters) and use small caps.

2.4. Tables, drawings and graphic items

Please avoid their proliferation, since it may result in an excessive number of pages. This could affect the eligibility of your work for publication. All tables and figures should be numbered consecutively and referred to by their numbers within the text (e.g., as we see in example/table/figure 1).

2.5. Punctuation

All punctuation marks, except colon and semicolon, should precede closing quotation marks (e.g., “the bookshelf,” she replied).

Question marks (?) and exclamation marks (!) should not normally be used in scholarly writing unless they are part of a quotation.

Do not use commas (,) before “and” and “or” in a series of three or more. Never use a comma and a dash together.

Square brackets ([ ]) are used for an unavoidable parenthesis within a parenthesis, to enclose interpolations or comments in a quotation or incomplete data and to enclose phonetic transcription. Slash marks (/ /) are used to enclose phonemic transcription.

2.6. Numbers

Spell out whole numbers from zero to one hundred and numbers followed by hundred, thousand, hundred thousand, million or billion. Spell out all numbers beginning a sentence.

2.7. Dates

Centuries are spelled out and lowercased (the twenty-first century). Use standard dating (April 13, 1990). No comma is used between month and year when no day is given (May 1990).

Express decades in numerals (the 1870s, the 1920s).

2.8. Italics

Use italics for emphasis (only when strictly necessary), foreign words, technical terms and linguistic forms (words, phrases, letters) cited as examples or as subjects of discussion. Italicise titles of books, plays, periodicals, films, television and radio programmes, paintings, drawings, photographs, statues or other works of art.

2.9. Capitalisation

Capitalise the first letter of the first word and all of the principal words—including nouns, adjectives, adverbs and verbs in hyphenated compounds, but not articles, prepositions and conjunctions—in titles of publications, lectures or papers. In mentioning magazines, journals or newspapers (e.g., the Gentleman’s Magazine), do not treat an initial definite article as a part of the title.

Do not capitalise references to standard parts of a specific work, such as preface, acknowledgements, appendix, chapter, etc. (e.g., as discussed in chapter four).

2.10. Quotation marks

Double quotation marks (“ ”) are used to enclose quoted speech or writing when they are run into the text. They are also used for titles or articles, book chapters and poems. Do not use straight double quotation marks (" ").

For quotations within run-in quotations and within titles of articles or book chapters, use single quotation marks (‘ ’) (e.g., “‘Fractions of Men’: Engendering Amputation in Victorian Culture”). For quotations within indented quotations, use double quotations marks (“ ”).

2.11. Quotations

All quotations should correspond exactly with the originals in wording, spelling, capitalisation and internal punctuation. Italicising words for emphasis should be used with discretion and be explicitly indicated as follows: “You find yourself, at the final blackout, holding your breath” (Tripney 2015, 8; italics added). If the emphasis is in the original, it should also be indicated: “The writerly text is ourselves writing” (Barthes 1974, 5; italics in the original).

If the source contains a spelling error, insert the italicized word sic in square brackets ([sic]). Clarifications, as well as translations, must be enclosed in brackets—e.g., “He [Stephen Spender] is one of the finest poets Britain has ever produced.”

When using the author-date system, the reference of the quotation should always be placed at the end of the clause, before the punctuation mark—e.g., a “nice suggestion” (Russell 2016, 36).

Second-hand quotations or references must be used only sparingly. If an original source is unavailable and “quoted in” must be resorted to, mention the original author and date in the main text and reference the source used both in the parenthetical reference and in the works cited list, as follows:

Main text:

In Louis Zukofsky’s “Sincerity and Objectification,” from the February 1931 issue of Poetry Magazine (quoted in Costello 1981, 53), …

Works Cited:

Costello, Bonnie. 1981. Marianne Moore: Imaginary Possessions. Cambridge, MA: Harvard UP.

2.12. Run-on and indented quotations

Unless special emphasis is required, prose quotations up to about 75 words should be run into the surrounding text. Longer quotations should be set off, indented (0.5 cm) and never enclosed in quotation marks. An 11-point font should be used for indented quotations.

Verse quotations of up to two lines should be run in, with the lines separated with a slash, leaving one space on either side (/). Longer verse quotations must be set off.

2.13. Ellipsis within quotations

Use three periods enclosed in brackets […] to indicate that part of a quotation has been deleted. Avoid using this device to open or close quotations that are obviously complete syntactic fragments.

2.14. Em dash (—)

The use of em dash instead of parentheses is advised. Do not leave any space before or after them—e.g., “haunting ghosts of the past—slavery and its legacy—should be laid to rest before a better future can be built.”

2.15. Footnotes

These should be limited to authorial commentary that cannot be easily accommodated in the body of the text and their use is discouraged. They must not be used to give bibliographical references that can appear in parenthetical form within the text. They should be numbered, superscripted and placed after the closest punctuation mark. The text of the footnote should be single-spaced and the first line should be indented (0.5 cm).

2.16. Exemplification

If the author provides a list of examples including sentences they should be listed, indented (0.5 cm) and written in an 11-point font following the example:

(1) Hello my name is Charlie. My town is xxx. (S5b4P)

(2) Hello! Mr. and Mrs Edwards. I’m Julia and I live in xxx. (S210g5P)

(3) Hello family! My name is Berta and my surname is Santos. (S1g6P)

 

§ 3. Documenting sources

Do not forget to add to your list of works cited all the references you mention throughout the text. Bear in mind that specific page numbers must be provided for all quotations included.

Use small caps for the first author’s surname throughout your list of works cited.

Leave page numbers in full up to 109; abbreviate them after that. Do so for in-text citations—e.g., (Thomson 2006, 108-109); (Suedfell 1997, 849-61)—as well as for pages in the works cited list—e.g., Modern Drama 61 (1): 109-10; Political Psychology 18 (4): 384-95.

Never use Latin reference tags (op. cit., ibidem, etc.).

If you want to indicate that some information is missing you can use the following devices: n.p. for “no publisher”—where the publisher’s name would appear in your entry—also for “no place of publication” and “no page”—e.g., online material without pagination. The use of n.d. is advised for “no date.” If the author or editor is unknown, the entry should begin with the title of the publication.

Publishing company names are abbreviated in the list of works cited. Remove articles, business abbreviations (Co., Inc.) and descriptive words (Publishers and so on). Any university press will be abbreviated according to one of these two patterns: U of Miami P or Toronto UP.

Avoid giving initials for authors in your works cited. Full names should be provided when possible.

In English, use a colon to separate titles from subtitles of books (e.g., The Feminist Reader: Essays in Gender and the Politics of Literary Criticism). In other languages, follow common practice (e.g., Multiculturalismo. Los derechos de las minorías culturales).

In accordance with the author-date system, two different types of documentation will be used: parenthetical in-text citations and a works cited list following the examples provided below. Other cases not included here must also follow the Chicago Manual of Style (16th edition).

Articles

Articles published by Atlantis must be the result of research. They should be between 6,000 and 8,000 words and, ideally, would have the following sections, although these need not be explicitly indicated in the text:

1. An introduction providing the context of the research and formulating the research question to be substantiated.

2. A brief review of the relevant bibliography, justifying the validity, originality, and scientific interest of the hypothesis or research claim in the light of existing scholarship on the subject.

3. The body of the article, in which evidence and facts prove the hypothesis or substantiate the research claim.

4. A concluding section, in which the contribution made to scholarship is neatly delimited and emphasized.

It is highly desirable for articles to have a sharp, clearly-stated focus, with aims made explicit from the outset and every section contributing to show the validity of the research and of its conclusions.

Book review articles

Book review articles are substantial reviews covering a number of related books. They should aim at offering a comprehensive analysis of the literature on a specific topic or field through summary, classification, analysis or comparison of at least two published books with either complementary or contrasting views. At the same time, they are expected to incorporate the author’s assessment of the volumes in terms of their relative value and scope, as well as to indicate directions for future research. Review articles should therefore include a bibliographical revision of previous publications, a critical assessment of the debates involved and a description of the contributions made by the authors of the books to the main topic. The journal especially welcomes review articles of books which have appeared within two years of the date of submission. Review articles should be between 3,000 and 4,500 words long. Objectivity on the part of the reviewer is essential. Formal aspects such as style, layout, critical apparatus, reference system, etc. should also be attended to, complying with the journal’s guidelines.
