Author Guidelines

Papers can be in any language chosen by the author, while the abstract (no more than 250 words) and keywords (5) must be in English.

Authors are asked to observe the following guidelines when preparing their text:

  1. Number pages consecutively.
  2. Type all headings, both main and sectional, with an initial capital for the first word only and without full points at the end.
  3. Double quotation marks should be used, with single only for quotes within quotes.
  4. Dates as 18 august 1990; 1914-18, 1898-99, twentieth century, and decades as 1990s without an apostrophe.
  5. Where dictionaries give alternatives for words ending in -ise, -ize, use the -ise suffix.

Please comply carefully with the following requirements for notes and references:

  1. Glocalism expects references for quotations and information as an indication of the sources used.
  2. To give references through the text, use the author’s surname, publication’s year and, after the colon, pages’ number, all between brackets (Smith 2005: 32-33). Use the year followed by a letter to distinguish different publications in the same year (Smith 2002a: 59; Smith 2002b: 12-27).
  3. Endnotes should be used to convey information which comments briefly on, or explains, the text. Notes should be indicated by numbers super-scribed before punctuation and should be provided at the end of the article.
  4. Page ranges follow this style: 1-9, 11-19, 20-29, 21-29; 100-109, 101-119.
  5. Titles of archive materials, source collections and journals must be given in full at the first reference, accompanied by abbreviations to be used later, if wanted.
  6. Complete book and journal references in the bibliography at the end of the text as exemplified here:
  • J. Haslam (1999), The vices of integrity. E.H. Carr 1892-1982 (London-New York: Verso).
  • R.C. Smail (ed.) (1956), Crusading warfare (1097–1193), 2 vol. (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press), vol. II.
  • J.R. Young (2006), The Scottish parliament and witch-hunting in Scotland under the covenanters, in “Parliaments, Estates and Representation”, 26, pp. 60-91.
  • H.J. Cohn (2006), The electors and imperial rule at the end of the fifteenth century, in S. MacLean, B. Weiler (eds.), Representations of power in medieval germany 800-1500 (Turnhout: Brepols), pp. 295-313.

Usage within an article should always be consistent; typescripts that diverge considerably from these guidelines may be returned to the author for correction.

If Artificial Intelligence tools have been used, the text must contain an explicit declaration of their utilisation as underlined in the Publication Ethics.
