Author Guidelines

The articles are selected in two steps: first, after consulting the Scientific Committee of the journal, the editorial team (Editorial Committee and the editor of the issue) makes a preliminary selection among the submitted article abstracts and invites the authors of the qualified abstracts to submit their articles; then all submitted articles are sent to two or three independent reviewers (double-blind review process).

The first stage (submission of proposals) is via e-mail: abstracts should be sent to the e-mail addresses of the issue editors before the deadline indicated in the call for papers.

The second stage is carried out entirely via the OJS platform.

The final decision to accept texts positively evaluated in the review process is made by the editorial team after consulting the Scientific Committee.

Submitted reviews are always evaluated by the Editorial Team (editor of volume and Editorial Committee) before being published.

The authors are requested to provide information concerning the financing sources of the manuscript’s publication (e.g. the number of the grant and the name of the institution providing the grant) and indicate the contribution of scholarly research institutions to its preparation (by unambiguously specifying the author’s/authors’ professional affiliation).

In order to avoid ghostwriting and guest authorship, the authors of multi-author texts are requested to specify the contribution of each author in the publication (by providing pertinent names, surnames and affiliations, and by indicating the authorship of the ideas, hypotheses, and methods used in the manuscript). The responsibility for providing information about the contributors to the text is borne by the author submitting the manuscript, and in the case of a collective submission, by the author mentioned in the first place.

The editorial board of Romanica Wratislaviensia will inform relevant parties of all forms of scientific misconduct, especially any breaches of ethics applicable to science.
