Guidelines for contributors

Please note that the rules for bibliographical references depend on the language of the paper. Guidelines for contributors can be downloaded here.

The maximal length of a publication in one volume should not exceed 64 000 characters with spaces (not counting the bibliography and abstracts). Publications exceeding this limit will be split into two and more parts and published in several volumes. Shorter publications are welcome.

Priority is given to studies with a clear argument based upon interpretation of primary sources as well as to publications of new materials.

Contributions are accepted in English, German, French, Italian, Latin, and Russian. Papers are accompanied by a Russian and an English abstract and key words. Contributions should be sent as a file in MS Word and PDF format attached to an e-mail to hyperbicl (at) gmail.com.

The editorial board accepts or declines a contribution taking into account the opinion of anonymous referees. Authors are informed of the decision on acceptance or rejection of the submission usually within two months. Authors should send a copy of the final version of their paper in Word and PDF format per e-mail after acceptance has been communicated by the editors. English summary and 3 to 5 key words should be attached to the final version.
