CRR, a peer-reviewed electronic journal published by the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures of the University of Cincinnati, welcomes submissions at any time and has an open submission policy. We seek articles from the field of Romance Languages and Literatures on a wide variety of issues. Articles are to be submitted to our editors Carlos Gutiérrez (Spanish and Portuguese) and Janine Hartman (French and Italian).

What format should authors follow?
Articles must be written in compliance with MLA style: Parenthetical references should be used in conjunction with a bibliography to keep notes to a minimum. The main text as well as block quotes, notes, and bibliographies should be double-spaced. Book and journal titles should be in italics, not underlined. Use endnotes, not footnotes, and place them between the main text and the bibliography. If you are writing in French or Spanish, you may choose to disregard MLA rules regarding the placement of commas and periods relative to quotation marks; in other words, you may (if you wish) place commas and periods outside quotation marks instead of inside them, as long as you do so consistently. Likewise, if you are writing in French or Spanish, you may choose to disregard the MLA rule stipulating that a comma must be placed after the penultimate element of a series of three or more items (e.g., "books, pamphlets, and broadsides") as long as you do so consistently.

How many copies of an article are required?
Send three paper copies and a copy on a diskette or CD in MS Word format. To guarantee anonymity, your name must NOT appear anywhere on your paper, but please include a cover sheet with your first and last names, the title of the article, your address, your telephone number, your email, your university affiliation, your professional status or title, and a signature.
