Contributors

We welcome contributions on all aspects of Greek and Roman literature, history, and society; on the classical tradition; on the history of classical scholarship; and on the teaching of Latin, Greek, and classical civilization. We do not think it is necessary to write in one way for teachers in schools and in another for scholars in colleges and universities. Our ideal reader is a scholarly teacher or a teaching scholar. Our ideal contributor has something to say to this reader.

All submissions (regular articles, as well as contributions to Paedagogus and Scholia) should be sent to the Editors. Books for review should be sent to the Reviews Editor (for e-mail addresses, see the Editorial Office).

Authors are requested to send submissions electronically as a PDF, either as an attachment to an e-mail or on diskette; but paper submissions are also acceptable. Since submissions are judged anonymously, authorship and affiliation should be revealed only in an accompanying e-mail or cover letter. Authors of accepted articles are expected to format their final versions in accordance with this style sheet (Acrobat file). They will also be expected to submit their final versions in Word or WordPerfect (either via e-mail or on a diskette). Acceptance of an article is contingent upon the author’s signing a standard publication agreement, and Classical World reserves the right to make or require edits for style, clarity, and editorial consistency. Finally, authors of accepted articles should supply an abstract of no more than 100 words, which will be published with their articles and also sent to the American office of L’Année Philologique.

Reviews

Classical World specializes in brief, timely, and expert reviews of new books on all areas of classical antiquity. Publishers are invited to submit new books to be reviewed to:

Lawrence Kowerski
Department of Classical and Oriental Studies, Hunter College
695 Park Avenue
New York, NY 10065
email: lkowersk@hunter.cuny.edu

Additionally, the journal offers extensive and immediate listings of all books received from publishers around the world with complete bibliographical information.

Surveys

In addition to individual scholarly articles, Classical World publishes scholarly bibliographies on ancient authors and topics, as well as surveys of teaching resources (audio-visual materials, edited by Janice Siegel, and textbooks, edited by Judith Lynn Sebesta). Professor Siegel has also put a greatly expanded version of her “Audio-Visual Resources for Classics” into an on-line database (will open in a new window). This expanded version, hosted by the Hampden-Sydney College, has been authorized by CAAS, although the Association holds copyright only to the print version.
