Types of Submissions

Arts & Artists

Of course, artists too are part of the conversations in the philosophies of the arts. We encourage them to discuss the philosophical aspects of their own or other artists' works; as well as critics to write about particular works indicating certain philosophical aspects. We also encourage philosophers to talk to artists about their works, and so on.
The Arts & Artists-section is edited by two editors---it is not peer-reviewed. Contributions to the Arts & Artists-section should not normally exceed 3000 words and should include an abstract of no more than 100 words. We welcome the inclusion of pictures, which are eligible for publication as ``the image of the journal'' on the home page of an issue.

Articles

The Articles-section is double blind reviewed by peers. Articles should not normally exceed 7,500 words. Our website facilitates that articles be submitted in anonymised form, for the sake of anonymous reviewing, and that biographical details and a 175 words abstract are provided in a separate file. Pictures to be included, are delivered as separate files. Authors are asked to indicate clearly in the text where they should go. Copyright clearance is the author's responsibility.

Fresh

Not all contributions to philosophical debates will take the form of lengthy articles that conform to the arguments developed in the academic debates in the journals. Fresh accepts contributions of maximum 3500 words, which in the view of the editorial board hold clear promise of initiating new avenues of thought and debate. This section is not peer reviewed. Please include an abstract of no more than 100 words.

Reviews

Reviews should not normally exceed 2000 words.
