SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Manuscripts are accepted for publication on the understanding that they have been submitted solely to the Kilikya Felsefe Dergisi / Cilicia Journal of Philosophy, and that they have not been previously published - either in whole or in part. Articles are expected to be in the range of 3000-6000 words.

All submissions must be made by email to [email protected] with the manuscript file attached in Word format. Please include your name, contact information, and the title of your paper in your message. All submissions will be acknowledged by email, and all subsequent correspondence regarding the manuscript will alsobe sent via email.

Submitted manuscripts must be prepared for double-blind refereeing, with any and all revealing references to the author removed, including personal acknowledgments. Any submission that does not adequately conceal the identity of its author will not be reviewed. All manuscripts must be paginated.

Please follow APA 6.0 Manual Style, and observe the guidelines listed below when preparing submissions. Information about the APA (American Psychological Association) style is available HERE.

While the editors are willing to read and evaluate a manuscript, please note that they may ask for revision of excessively long submissions. The final version of accepted manuscripts must be formatted as a Word file.

Preparation of Manuscripts

The first page should include the title of the paper, the name of the author and an abstract of not more than 150 words which will be printed along with the text; subsequent pages should be numbered and an address for correspondence should appear at the end. Contributions should be in English.

Language Editing

If English is not your native language, you may wish to have your manuscriptit edited for language prior to submission. This may help to ensure that the scholarly content of your paper is clearly understood by editors and reviewers. Language editing does not guarantee that your manuscript will be accepted for publication.

APA Documentation

You must document whenever you quote, paraphrase, summarize, or use any idea, fact, or figure from source material (unless the material is “common knowledge”). The current form uses in-text parenthetical references in conjunction with an alphabetized References list (on a separate page at the end of your text).

In-Text Citation

APA style favors the use of the author’s name, followed by the publication date, as part of your sentence, like this:

"Strunk (1979) determined latent ....."

The other common choice is to put both the author’s last name and the year of publication in parentheses at the end of the sentence, like this:

" ...latent adipose deposits also may be a cause of the problem (Strunk, 1979)."

Whichever style you choose, remember that the following information is required for a complete citation:

  • 1. Author’s last name
  • 2. Year of publication (separated from the author’s name by a comma).
  • 3. Page number is optional for summary or paraphrase, but required when you use a direct quotation:
    "According to Gray (1996), his study results "were ridiculous" (p.2)."

Works Cited

The works list appears on a separate page at the end of your paper and is organized as follows:

  • 1. Alphabetically by author’s last name. If no author, alphabetical by first word in title (not “A” or “The”).
  • 2. Double-spaced.
  • 3. First line of each entry even with margin; subsequent lines indented five spaces.
