Chronologically, the journal extends over the period from ancient times until the beginning of the nineteenth century. Languages: Contributions should be written in English, French or German. Manuscripts: Contributions should be submitted in the original and with 2 copies, and an accompanying diskette, either in WordPerfect 5.1, or Microsoft Word programs. Contribu- tions should have broad margins, double spaced between lines, and on one side of the paper, which should preferably be A4 sheets (21 ´ 29.7 cm). Arabic words and names should be transliterated according to the system adopted by the Encyclopaedia of Islam, New Edition (see the prelims to the various volumes of that work), with the following modiÞcations: omit subscript bars, and instead of ∆ write q. Italics should be indicated by underlining once the words concerned. Corrections to the manuscript should be added not in the margins but to the text. Contributions should be completely ready for typesetting. Abbreviations for relevant expressions should follow either the Encyclopaedia of Islam, Lexicon d’assyriologie, or Lexicon der Ägyptologie. Non-Roman scripts: In general, the use of scripts other than the Roman and the Greek alpha- bets should be restricted to those instances where satisfactory romanization is impossible, or where the author’s point cannot otherwise satisfactorily be explained, and to the editions of texts in scholarly literature that so customarily are published. Illustrations, tables: Illustrations and tables should be included if only they are absolutely indispensable for the understanding of the text. Diagrams, charts, maps, plans and other line illustrations should be submitted in a form suitable for direct reproduction, i.e. neatly drawn with India ink on white drawing paper or on tracing paper, and provided with lettering in printing type. Half-tone illustrations should be submitted in the form of glossy black-and-white photo- graphs, and should be ready for direct reproduction. The approximate positions of illustrations should be clearly indicated in the margins of the manuscripts. For tables, references to notes should be by means of letters (a,b,c etc.). Authors of arti- cles containing large numbers of tables should submit these tables in a form suitable for direct reproduction. Illustrations and camera-ready tables, whose sizes exceed the width and (or) the height of the type area, should be submitted in a form permitting sufÞcient reduction. Proofs: Authors will receive galley proofs for correction. Page proofs are read by the editor only. Running headlines: The printer will add running headlines to the top of the pages when preparing page proofs. Authors will be free to supply the text for these when returning the proofs. The text of a running headline should be as short as possible and not exceed 40 posi- tions (i.e. letters and spaces) and, preferably, should be only words in Roman script. Offprints: Authors of articles are entitled to 25 complimentary offprints, authors of reviews to 8. The author will receive offprints approx. one month after publication. Charges: The publisher reserves the right to charge authors for: changes made to proofs other than correction of compositor’s errors; extra work resulting from the presence in the text of large numbers of words in scripts other than Roman; any reworking or improving of illus- trations or camera-ready tables that may appear to be necessary. Charges made for any speciÞc article(s) may be quoted in advance, on request.
