The content of the journal
is available online via AMUR, the Adam Mickiewicz University Repository.
The
language of the journal is English.
Articles published by PASS usually range between 4,000 and 15,000
words, but longer text can also be occasionally accepted. Published articles
will be accompanied by abstracts and lists of keywords (see below for details).
Together with the names of the Authors, the journal will publish their
institutional affiliation, as well as email addresses.
Manuscripts, formatted in accordance with the PASS stylesheet (see below for details), should be sent as file
attachments (MS Word type, PC-readable), to PASS’s
email address (pass@wa.amu.edu.pl). In the
email the Author's or Authors' institutional affiliation and full contact
details (email and postal addresses, telephone number) should be included.
When submitting manuscripts to PASS,
Authors are requested to avoid simultaneous submission of them to other
publication venues.
Submitted articles will be subjected to a double-blind
peer review process. After an initial acceptance of a text by the Editors
(with a focus on the scope and form of the submission), at least two specialist
anonymous reviewers will be asked to assess the text and to comment upon it.
Their recommendations as to the potential publication of the article (publish,
publish after revisions, reject), as well as their particular comments, will be
forwarded to the Authors, together with the Editors’ decision.
Publishing a text in PASS includes granting by the Author(s) a non-exclusive licence to the Adam Mickiewicz University to store the text digitally and to make it available in the Adam Mickiewicz University Repository.
PASS Stylesheet
All contributions should follow the PASS stylesheet:
- They should begin with a separate page with the Author's name, institutional affiliation
and email.
- Following the title they should have an abstract (up to 250 words) and a
list of several keywords.
- They should be equipped with both footnotes and a final list of References.
- 1.5 line spacing and Times New Roman 12 points should
be used throughout, with the exception of footnotes, block quotations and
long quotations from poetry, which should be set in Times New Roman 10
points. Quotations should be formatted as block quotations if they have
more than 90 words. Block quotations should be additionally left-indented.
- The documentation information of a source cited in the
text should first be placed in a footnote and then repeated, in a modified
format, in the References section at the end of the text (see below for
examples).
- Footnotes are to be numbered consecutively with
superscript numbers (Arabic numerals).
- Titles in languages other than English (including
Polish, French, Spanish etc.) should be translated into English. The
translations should be placed in parentheses and should follow immediately
the original titles in both the footnotes and the References section.
- The abbreviations of n.p. and
n.d., standing respectively for “no place” (of
publication) or “no publisher”, and “no date” should be used where
necessary.
- Footnotes should use the traditional Latin
abbreviations of cf., op. cit., and ibid., without italicizing them.
