I. The Bulletin de philosophie médiévale

For the most part, the principles and forms of annotation articulated in this style­sheet follow the long­established practices of the Bulletin, with only a few modifications. The principles and formulae articulated in this style­sheet are designed to achieve a balance of precision, clarity and economy in references, and to establish for a multi­lingual publication a koine that does not favor the typographical and bibliographical conventions of any one scholarly language. For understandable historical reasons, the Bulletin adopted early on French typographical conventions; today, however, the journal publishes as many articles in English and German as in French. Therefore, some adjustments and modifications have seemed appropriate.

2 Publications of the S.I.E.P.M.

(1) General Rules

In general, authors should follow the typographical conventions of the language in which they have written the article or item. This principle per­tains especially to the style of quotation marks and to the placement of punctuation marks and footnote numbers with respect to quotation marks. Therefore, English writers should use the English style (“quotation…”), French writers the French style (« quotation… ») and German writers the German style („quotation…“), not only in the body of the text, but in all entries in the footnotes.

Text

1) In italics: single words or expressions in Latin or other foreign langu­ages; the titles of works.

2) In smaller size font: longer quotations (verse, extracts from letters, documents etc.); in this case please use block quotations. For short quota­tions please follow the typographical conventions of the language adopted in your contribution. (see above).

3) Avoid the use of bold or underlining.4) The use of tables is restricted to the absolutely essential. Note: tables

should contain no more than three columns. (5) […] Square brackets indi­cate omissions in the text […] or additions Example, (within a quote): he [Augustinus] said ... Please use the glyph … instead of three points ...

Footnotes

1) In bibliographical references in footnotes, the names of modern and contemporary authors, editors and translators should be printed in small ca­pitals. For first and middle names use initials; e.g., J.A. Aertsen, J. HAmes-se, D. Luscombe. The full names of ancient and medieval authors should be printed in small capitals, e.g., AristoteLes, Henricus de GAndAvo, ro-bertus Grosseteste, tHomAs de Aquino. One should follow the orthogra­phy of names according to the principles enunciated, and the forms evident in the Table des noms d’auteurs anciens et médiévaux of the Bulletin. The Editor endeavors to present there the preferred orthography of Latin names, of Greek names as transliterated in the Latin alphabet, and of transliterated forms of Arabic and Hebrew names, as they are established in critical edi­tions, in the scholarly literature, and in authoritative bibliographical works. Suggestions for revisions, in the light of new scholarship, are welcome.

Typographical Conventions 3

2) In both the body of the text and in footnotes, the titles of books and journals should be italicized, e.g., John Buridan: Portrait of a Four-teenth-Century Author, Bulletin de philosophie médiévale. In footnotes, the titles of publication series should be placed in Roman font wthin paraen­theses, e.g. (Studien und Texte zur Geistesgeschichte des Mittelalters 80).

3) In general, in bibliographical references in footnotes one should cite only the place and date of publication and should not name the publisher, e.g., Louvain­la­Neuve 1993. In footnotes it is appropriate to name the printers or publishing­firms of early­modern (15th­16th centuries) printed books.

4) The abbreviations “p., pp.” etc. to signify page numbers should be eliminated. On the other hand, the abbreviation “f., ff.” (preferable to “fol., fols.”) for folios in manuscripts or early printed books must always be used, and the abbreviations “p., pp.” must be used when citing manuscripts that are paginated.

5) Because writers vary in their usage of them, and because they some­times engender ambiguity, the abbreviations idem, Ibid., op. cit. should be used sparingly.

6) The general principles articulated above are illustrated by the ex­amples given in the typology of annotation in the following sections. Nota bene: For reasons of simplicity, all of the examples refer to works written in Latin or in modern European vernacular tongues. Scholars referring to texts and scholarly works written in Arabic, Greek or Hebrew should use the same typographical conventions and forms of annotation, with these spec­ifications:

(i) Arabic names of authors and Arabic titles should be written (prop­erly) in the transliterated alphabet.

(ii) Likewise, Hebrew names of authors and Hebrew titles should be written (properly) in the transliterated alphabet.

(iii) The names of Greek authors should be written in their proper Lati­nate form. Titles of texts and of scholarly works written in the Greek alpha­bet may be recorded in that alphabet.

(3) Citations of Articles in Journals

The Bulletin has not established its own table of abbreviations for journal titles. Thus, authors should use such abbreviations only when they are uni­versally well­established among students of medieval philosophy, and only when the author is certain that nearly all readers of the Bulletin will reco­gnize immediately the journal titles that the abbreviations signify. Since subsequent citations of articles need give only author and short titles and need not cite the title of the journal again (see section d below), the need for such abbreviations is minimal.

(5) Citations of Texts by Ancient and Medieval Authors

In general, contributors to the Bulletin in their first citations of editions must (i) follow the typographical conventions expressed above (e.g., for authors’ names, titles), (ii) be sure to include all of the bibliographical elements in their citations, and (iii), as regards particular texts (e.g., the texts of Aristotle), follow conventions accepted at large in the scholarly community. The important thing is to be (analogically) consistent throug­hout the article, and to be artful in treating singular features of particular texts and editions. IMPORTANT: There are no commas between title and text­divisions.

In their citations of editions subsequent to the first, authors will make use of abbreviations (for titles, series, etc.) and will be able to eliminate bibliographical elements included in their first citations. In their abbreviated references, authors must include the key identifying elements and avoid all ambiguity.

When they are cited, line numbers in critical editions should be attached to the page numbers divided by a point (period), e.g., 333.16­18, or 335­36.22­28.

(6) Citations of Manuscripts

(a) In articles and reports, the first citation of a manuscript (in the body of the text or in a footnote) should be full, the name of the city and the currently official name of the library being written out in the language of the place in which the library is located. Insofar as it is possible to know, scholars should use the signifier for a manuscript book (e.g., Ms., Cod., Hs.) that is preferred by the particular library, as indicated in printed catalogues or as is in use within the library. For the proper names of libraries and their locations, and for extensive bibliographies of manuscript catalogues and in­ventories, consult: P.O. KristeLLer, Latin Manuscript Books before 1600: A List of the Printed Catalogues and Unpublished Inventories of Extant Collections, 4th revised and enlarged edition by S. Krämer (Monumenta Germaniae Historica: Hilfsmittel 13), München 1993. Information in this work will need constant supplementation and up­dating.

II. Editorial Procedures for Volumes in the Series Rencontres de philosophie médiévale

The scholarly editor or editors—henceforward called the “volume­editor”— of volumes in the series «Rencontres de philosophie médiévale», which usual­ly comprise the proceedings of S.I.E.P.M. annual Colloquia, and the General Editor and Editorial Office collaborate in the publication of the book. The respective duties of the volume­editor(s) and the General Editor are these:

(1) The volume­editor is responsible (a) for assembling the essays in the volume and setting the deadline for submission, (b) for editing the essays, (c) for preparing the annotation in each essay according to the norms specified above (for the Bulletin), and (d) for preparing the indices of manuscripts, of ancient and medieval authors, and of modern and contemporary authors (see 3 below). The volume­editor must prepare the text in computer files in a uniform format, and then submit the files by e­mail attachment to the General Editor, as well as a printed copy by post

(2) The General Editor is responsible (a) for preparing the final copy for the publisher (Brepols) and (b), in the process, for making sure that the annotation etc. conform to the standards of S.I.E.P.M. publications.

(3) When the General Editor has established page­proofs of the text of the essays sent to him by the volume­editor, he will send them to the vol­ume­editor so that he or she may prepare the indices. When the volume­ed­itor has completed that work, he or she will send the indices to the General

Typographical Conventions 11

Editor, who will put them in their final format, and submit the whole volume to the publisher for printing.

(4) Between them, the volume­editor and the General Editor will decide how best to send out proofs to authors, etc., during the course of publication.
