Guidelines for Texts
Format:
1) Use font Arial size 12 throughout, including all entries in the End Notes.
2) Full justification, both left and right.
3) Double-space the main text.
4) Indent the first line of each new paragraph. (Do not leave a blank space between paragraphs.)
5) Use one space (not two) after sentence punctuation.
6) Single-space notes, and do not put a space between each separate note.
7) Single-space all items in the End Notes.
8) To indicate emphasis, titles, and terms in a foreign language use italics (not underlining).
Basic Layout:
1) The title should appear at the top of the first page, centred and boldface (16 font), and be followed by one blank double-spaced line.
2) Number all pages in the right hand corner using Arabic numerals, except for the first page, which will remain unnumbered.
3) Notes should be assembled at the end of the text (not the bottom of each page). They should be headed by the unnumbered section heading "Notes," which should be centred, boldface, set off from the preceding paragraph by two blank double-spaced lines.
4) All citations should be included in the note. Generally, list the source of the quote, then add your comments.
Quotations:
1) Quotations longer than three lines should appear without quotation marks, be single-spaced, and be indented 1 cm in both the left and right margins. Enter one blank double-spaced line immediately before and after the block-indented quotation.
2) Indicate all interpolations with square brackets.
3) All ellipses should be indicated with a group of three immediately consecutive dots, preceded and followed by a single space.
Quotation marks and punctuation:
1) Use double quotation marks for first order quotations of less than three lines and integrate them in the text. Use single quotation marks for quotations within quotations.
2) Final punctuation goes inside quotation marks.
3) Semicolons, exclamation marks, and question marks that are not part of the quoted material should be placed outside quotation marks.
4) Leave one space (not two) following punctuation between sentences.
Citations:
1) All citations should include an End Note. The source of the document should be listed first, in the following form (listing translators is optional):
A) General paradigm:
Author, Jane. Title of the Book (Publishing Location: Publishing House, 2009: pp. 33- 36).
B) Book with translator paradigm:
Sartre, Jean-Paul. Being and Nothingness: A Phenomenological Essay on Ontology. Trans. Hazel Barnes. (New York: Washington Square Press, 1956: pp. 44-47).
C) Article paradigm:
Simons, Margaret. “Two Interviews with Simone de Beauvoir”, in Hypatia 3, no. 3 (1989): pp. 11-27.
D) Chapter/Article in Book paradigm:
Gyllenhammer, Paul. “The Question of (In)Tolerance in Heidegger’s Notion of World- Disclosure.” Issues in Interpretation Theory. (Milwaukee: Marquette University Press, 2006: pp. 167-198).
2) Subsequent references will be in the form:
This is her most important point. (Author, p. 45)
3) Where more than one work by an author is cited more than once, abbreviate the title using one key word:
See: Deleuze, Proust, pp. 65,67, and Deleuze, Logic, p. 15.
4) If referencing an author further in your End Notes, one need only cite the page number in parentheses:
Deleuze, Proust, pp. 65-67. This passage is interesting, because Deleuze later refutes the same argument in the same book. (p. 99)
Notes:
1) Notes appear in the body of the text in superscript and as consecutive, Arabic numerals.
2) Numbers appear in the Notes section also in superscript.
3) In the body of the text, superscript notes appear:
(a) outside punctuation, when no quotation marks or parenthetical citations are used, e.g., … lovers seek solitude.1
(b) outside closing quotation marks, when no parenthetical citation appears, e.g., “… lovers seek solitude.”1
(c) outside punctuation that follows the parenthetical citation, e.g., “… lovers seek solitude” (Deleuze's favorite passage).1
