Submissions to SCJ

Manuscript Submissions

Contributions to The Sixteenth Century Journal are invited. Email queries may be made at David Whitford.

Please submit one electronic copy of your essay to dwhitford@united.edu.

Please submit two hard copies of your essay to:
Dr. David Whitford, Associate Editor, SCJ
United Theological Seminary
4501 Denlinger Road
Dayton, OH 45426

While we do not mandate a particular length, our submissions average 9000 words (including notes).

We review in a double-blind anonymous system. You will not know the identity of the person reviewing your submission and she or he will not know yours. To facilitate this, we ask that you remove any identifying markers from the manuscript. If you intend to quote yourself, for the initial review period, refer to yourself in the third person. Submit your essay with a cover letter that notes the title of your essay. Your essay will be assigned a tracking number by Dr. Whitford’s office.

Submissions should be documented in proper Chicago Manual of Style format.

All manuscripts are subject to editorial modification.
Manuscripts (article and documentation) must be printed double-spaced, on one side of letter-size paper. Submissions from outside North America may use A4 size paper.

Be sure to include your email address in all correspondence. Email will be the normal venue for communication from SCJ’s editorial office.

Electronic Submission of Articles

All manuscripts accepted for publication must be supplied in hard copy and electronic copy. Properly formatted ZIP disks with RTF files in either PC or Mac format or email attachments in RTF are preferred. Documentation may appear as endnotes or footnotes. Before preparing disk for final submission, authors may contact Paula Presley, Copy/Production Editor, for advice: Voice: 660-627-1359; fax: 660-785-4480; ppresley@truman.edu.
