Instructions to authors

Istruzioni per gli autori

Submission of an article for publication in an issue of the journal implies the author’s acceptance of the following terms:

  • The author gratuitously and non‑exclusively assigns the copyright relative to their work or contribution to UGA Éditions and authorises the dissemination of the final published version of their contribution on open access under the Creative Commons licence CC‑BY‑SA 4.0 (or where appropriate, a more recent version of this licence): a contract for non‑exclusive transfer of copyright will be issued to the author if the publication is accepted;

  • In the case of elements (text, photographs or sketches, etc.) loaned to a work or article, the author must have obtained the prior authorisations required and submit them at the same time as their typescript.

 

Use of artificial intelligence (AI)

The author may use generative artificial intelligence and AI-assisted technologies in the process of writing without mentioning it, only if it is used to punctually improve the language and style of the contribution. Any other use of AI in the elaboration of a text must be explicitly and transparently mentioned at the beginning of the article. This use must also be expressly authorized by the editorial board of the journal before the article is accepted for publication. In that case, the use of these technologies must be declared in a note by the author of the published work.

Our journal does not allow the use of generative AI tools to create, modify or manipulate the data and results of research. The use of technology is under the control of the author, who must carefully review and edit the results, for AI can generate incorrect, incomplete or biased results. The author is ultimately responsible for the scientific quality, the accuracy and the integrity of the information in his article.

The author is also meant to ensure that the work is original and does not infringe the rights of others. In consequence, and as a precaution, the use of AI to generate illustrations (or even slightly correct existing images) is not authorized, in order to limit uncertainties as to their use and not to infringe—even unintentionally—copyright.

1. Elements to be provided by authors

— Two digital versions of the article (one in Word format, the other in PDF format, the latter to be used for non‑Latin characters and special layouts) must be submitted to the issue coordinator(s) or the scientific management of the journal: <revue-gaia@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr>.

— At the top of the text, the author is to specify their last and first name and institutional affiliation (in compliance with the standardised signature charter for scientific publications as defined by their supervising institution).

— A summary (of at least 1,000 characters, including spaces) and 5 to 10 keywords in French and English (and possibly another language) must be systematically provided by the author. The title of the article must also be translated into English (and possibly into the other chosen language). This information is helpful in optimising the listing of this article on the internet with and facilitating its accessibility.

— All illustrations, in any format whatsoever (figures, tables), are to be numbered and submitted as separate files in high resolution (300 dpi). Any special fonts must be attached to the documents provided. Each illustration must be accompanied by a title (possibly a caption and credit) and announced in the text by a reference number in brackets.
Authors are advised to provide images (or screenshots) for complex tables (or textual elements requiring a specific alignment) which may lead to transcription errors during the preparation of the copy or to screen display issues for the electronic version on the OpenEdition Journals platform.

— Quotes in living languages do not necessarily require translation. However, a translation of Greek or Latin quotes is advised: for long indented quotes, the translation is placed under the quote extract and not as a footnote, and is enclosed in quotation marks to differentiate it from the original text.

2. General instructions for text presentation

— To format their article, authors are requested to use the Word template, downloadable from the following link: <https://objs-fr.hypotheses.org/698> on PC or <[…]/697> for Mac.

The procedure for installing Word document templates is also available at this address.

A template defines the basic layout of a document and allows it to be formatted using pre-defined style sheets. It structures the texts drafted with Microsoft Word software, and facilitates their processing prior to importing into Lodel software for online publication on the journal website.

— The maximum length of the article is 50,000 characters, including spaces.

— Articles may be written in French, English, German or Italian. If an author wishes to submit an article in another language, they must check first with the scientific management of the publication. The author of a contribution is responsible for the correct use and punctuation of their chosen language.

— The article must be paginated and typed in Times New Roman Unicode 12 (Greek included). If special fonts are nevertheless required, they must be attached to the documents provided (only Unicode fonts are accepted). Do not add a space between paragraphs and remember to accentuate capital letters (in particular for proper nouns appearing in bibliographies).

— The punctuation rules for each language must be strictly adhered to, whether for articles written entirely in a foreign language or for a quote.

— Headings and sub-headings: The hierarchy must be clearly indicated using “Title 1” (rank 1 title), “Title 2” (rank 2 title) etc. style sheets. The introduction and conclusion must also be clearly specified. Please avoid references to headings and sub-headings in the running text.

— The title and summaries of an article must not include a reference to a footnote. In the case where a footnote is required, it is preferable to specify this in the text body or as an author’s note (using the “author’s note” style sheet).

— Footnotes must be numbered using Arabic numerals. They must serve to clarify the text; avoid using too many or overly long footnotes. Do not include tables or long quotes in footnotes.

— Do not overuse visual signs for the reader. Only italics are generally accepted typographically; avoid using underlining, words in capital letters and bold type.

3. Bibliographical references

Bibliographical references (associated with quote extracts or simply supporting the author’s views) are preferably to be inserted as footnotes, using the footnote reference and the Author + publication date system referring to a bibliography at the end of the article. The reference is to be placed in brackets; it includes the author’s name and year of publication separated by a comma, in addition to the page(s) in question, where appropriate. A suffix (a, b, c, etc.) may be added to the year if the bibliography contains several publications by the author for the same year. The suffix is attributed according to the order of appearance in the bibliography.

In the text, the general rule is to quote only the last name of authors and not their first name. The initial of the author’s first name is included only in the case of two authors sharing the same last name.

Format for references in brackets

  • When a reference includes only 1 author, the various reference items (author’s name, year of publication, page or page sequence) are separated by commas:

(Lewis, 1973)
(Grassigli, 1988, 2008
b)
(Menichetti, 1988
b, 141–149)

[To specify page intervals, follow the typographical rules specific to the language of the article: “141–149” or the abbreviated form “141–9” (in English), “141-149” (in French).]

  • When a reference includes 2 to 3 authors, insert the “&” character before the last author:

(Grassigli & Menichetti, 2008)
(Cavanagh, Gallou
& Georgiadis, 2009, 77–84)

  • When a reference includes more than 3 authors, only the first author is quoted, followed by the non-italicised term et al. (for “et alii”) and the date of publication:

(Musti et al., 1991)

[Articles written in French generally use “et al.” but in italics]

  • To refer to a bibliography, use “see” rather than “cf.”

[For articles in French, replace “in” by “dans”, “sq.” by “et suiv.”, “op. cit” by “art. cité” or “ouvr. cité”.]

Ancient texts in the running text or in footnotes

The various reference items are separated by commas and non-abbreviated:

Homer, The Iliad, IX, 370
Pindar,
Nemean Odes, X, 1–10
Apollonius Rhodius,
Argonautica, IV, 1638

For indented ancient texts, the reference is placed after the original text and in brackets.

4. Quoting an extract from a text

Quotes must correspond exactly to the original text. The author is responsible for their accuracy. Short quotes (less than 40 words) are included in the running text, in Roman font in brackets if in English, or in italics and always between quotation marks for quotes in other languages (except Greek). Long quotes (3 or more lines, or more than 40 words) are separated from the text by line spaces before and after, without quotation marks, and with an indentation to the left and right (use preferably the “quote” style sheet for the Word template, downloadable at<https://objs-fr.hypotheses.org/698> for PC or <[…]/697> for Mac). The author’s interventions in the quoted text (deletions, additions, or substituted letters or words) are indicated between square brackets. If the author adds italics or underlining to attract the reader’s attention to a specific passage, this must be specified in a footnote with phrases such as “I underline”, “I have underlined” or “I have italicised”. Narrative ellipses or omissions of one or more words in a text extract must be indicated by three dots between square brackets […] and never in italics (even for texts in French and English). Do not forget the punctuation, before or after the break. Always include the quote reference, inserted preferably as a footnote on the same page, using the footnote reference, or in brackets after the quote.

1. The quote is incorporated in the text, consists of only a few words and does not form a complete sentence:

Descartes says that shame is “a kind of modesty or humility” or even “a kind of self-distrust” (1649, 73, art. 205).

In his Passions of the Soul, Descartes states that “shame […] comes from the opinion or fear that one has of being blamed” (1649, 73, art. 205).

Note that the full stop is placed outside the quotation marks and the reference of the quote is specified in brackets and before the last full stop.

2. The quotation is introduced by a colon and forms a complete sentence:

Homer says: “There is nothing more terrible than the sea to tame a man” (Odyssey, VIII, 138).

Note that the first word is capitalised and the full stop is placed after the quote reference placed in brackets.

NB. – You are advised to translate all quotes in a foreign language. In the case of a short quote, the English translation, in brackets and quotation marks, can follow the original quote or appear as a numbered footnote on the same page.

5. Bibliography at the end of the article

The aim of the bibliography at the end of the article is to enable the reader to identify and find only the original documents actually consulted and explicitly quoted in the article (with or without extract).

Bibliographical references are listed in alphabetical order of the authors’ names, followed by the chronological order of the publication year. Last names are written in capital letters (accentuated if necessary) and first names in full. If there are several authors for the same reference, use the character “&” before the final author’s name.

6. Reminder of some typographical rules

Footnote reference

The footnote reference in an English text is always placed after the punctuation, contrary to the French system which places it before the punctuation. In the case of a quote, it is placed after the closing quotation mark.

NB. – If the quote extract is complete, the full stop is also placed before the closing quotation mark.

How do I place this footnote reference?1

The footnote reference is always placed after the punctuation mark.2

This footnote reference,3 in an English Text, must be placed after the comma.

The teacher told them: Place this footnote reference correctly.”4
[Note that when the quote is introduced by a colon and begins with a full sentence, the first word takes an initial capital letter.]

The teacher asked them to place this footnote reference correctly”.5

The teacher says that the “footnote reference”6 is well placed.

The footnote reference is placed directly after the word7 it refers to.
[Note that it is never italicised (or in bold type) when it follows a word in italics (or bold type).]

🇫🇷 In French, the footnote reference is always placed before the punctuation mark. If it refers to a quote, it is placed before the closing quotation mark.
Please note: if the quoted sentence is complete, the full stop is also placed before the closing quotation mark. The note reference mark is followed by a full stop at the end of the sentence, even if it is preceded by a full stop for an abbreviated word. For instance: etc.
1. / J.‑C.2.

🇮🇹 In Italian, the footnote reference is placed outside the quotation marks, after elements inserted in brackets, but always before the punctuation mark.

🇩🇪 In German, the footnote reference is placed after the word it refers to, outside the quotation marks, after elements inserted in brackets, and generally after the punctuation mark (full stop or other).

Quotation marks

In an English text, double quotation marks (“ ”) are used for a first rank quote and single quotation marks (‘ ’) for a second rank quote.

🇫🇷 In a French text, typographical quotation marks in the form of guillemets (« ») are used for a first rank quote and double English quotation marks (“ ”) for a second rank quote.

🇮🇹 In an Italian text, angular quotation marks (« ») (without a space) are used for a first rank quote, a translation, or to highlight a word (italics are preferable in this case) or an expression; double English quotation marks (“ ”) are used for a second rank quote and simple quotation marks (‘ ’) for a third rank quote or to highlight a word or expression.

🇩🇪 In a German text, inverted double quotation marks („ “) are used for a first rank quote, and inverted single quotation marks (, ‘) for a second rank quote.

Space and punctuation marks

In English, quotation marks (“ ”) are attached to the words they enclose, whereas French 🇫🇷 places a non‑breaking space after the opening guillemet («) and before the closing guillemet (»).

The colon, semicolon, exclamation mark, question mark, and the characters %, and °C are not preceded by a non‑breaking space in English, whereas they are in French 🇫🇷.

Ellipsis points

Please use the ellipsis points as a single character, with no space between them. To get the ellipsis points “”, press Alt + ; on the Mac and Ctrl + Shift + Alt + ; on the PC.

Do not to separate ellipsis points from the word preceding them (contrary to British English usage). If there is an ellipsis at the end of a sentence, the final full stop will be omitted.

NB. – To indicate a narrative ellipsis (omission of one or several words in a quoted text extract), use ellipsis points between square brackets […].

Dashes and hyphens

In English, the short dash (i.e. en dash) is used to indicate intervals.

The war of 19141918; pp. 1548.

The long dash (i.e. em dash) is used to indicate an insertion—such as this one—within a sentence. The second dash is deleted before a final punctuation mark. In English (American usage 🇺🇸 here preferred), it is customary not to introduce a space before and after the long dash:

The English examplethough it is usefulwon’t be translated like that.

In French 🇫🇷, the hyphen is used to indicate intervals.

1914-1918; p. 154-158.

🇫🇷 In French, the long dash (i.e. the em dash) is used to indicate an insertion within a sentence. A non‑breaking space is also used after the first dash and before the second. The second dash is deleted before a final punctuation mark.

Enumeration

In English, it is customary to keep the comma after the penultimate element, followed by the conjunction “and”.

A, B, and C.

Italics

Italics are used to draw the reader’s attention to a word, phrase or passage that the author wishes to emphasise. It is used for Latin expressions (abbreviated or not, except those considered common in English: cf., e.g., et al., etc., ibid., id., i.e., op. cit.) and foreign words (except Greek); on the other hand, the names of foreign companies and organisations are written in Roman.

It is also customary to use italics when quoting the title of a newspaper, journal or literary or artistic work.

Capital letters

Never write whole words, phrases, titles or proper nouns entirely in capital letters. Use capital letters only for acronyms. Do not put a full stop between the letters of acronyms.

CNRS and not C.N.R.S.

NB. – For the titles of English articles and books, please use: a capital for the first letter of the first and last word of a title, all the nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs and subordinating conjunctions (If, Because, That…), as well as the first word of a subtitle; small letters are used for articles (a, an, the), coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or, for, nor) and prepositions (about, at, before, between, by, from, in, on, etc.), regardless of their length, except if they are the first or last word of the title or subtitle.
To draft or check the composition of English titles, you can use the online tool at <
https://capitalizemytitle.com> (the MLA format is preferred here).

Common abbreviations

Avoid overusing abbreviations in the running text; they are nevertheless preferable in notes.

The decimal separator is a dot. E.g.: 
8,750.54
Months and days of the week take a capital letter.
Dates are written in British English.
E.g.: 
Thursday, 15 January 2015
(and not according to American English: Thursday, January 15, 2015).
Centuries are written in Arabic numerals and without superscript. E.g.:

Notes

1 The bold type used in the reference examples is to draw your attention to the placement of certain elements in the various bibliographical note formats.

2 Specify the volume first, followed by the periodical number in brackets, then the year of publication preceded by a comma.

3 Specify the DOI preferably (Digital Object Identifier).

4 Use the Année philologique abbreviations when they exist: here REG for Revue des études grecques (see the full list of abbreviations in use at <www.unige.ch/biblio/files/4016/3394/0849/Abreviations_APh.pdf>). If not, specify the name of the periodical in full.

5 The presentation differs for articles written in Italian and must comply with Italian rules: the names of magazines, periodicals and journals must be placed between angular quotation marks (« ») and the title of the article is italicised.
E.g.: DAIX David-Arthur, Les silences d’Homère, «REG», 126, 2013 (2), pp. 281‑283.

6 British English uses a full stop after words only if they are abbreviated before the last letter, contrary to American English which systematically places a full stop at the end of all abbreviated words (except for abbreviations of measurement units).
