Articles may be submitted in English, French or other languages, but will normally be published in English. While acceptance of a contribution may be based on an evaluation of the ms. in its original language, a satisfactory translation of the accepted ms. into English is the author's responsibility. Manuscripts should not normally exceed 6,500 words. Style must conform generally to MLA Style (see MLA HANDBOOK, 4th ed. (1995)). Paradoxa will regularize individual variations in style. Foreign language quotes must be accompanied by glosses, i.e., translations into English in brackets. Authors must obtain written permission for quoting unpublished or published material in excess of fair use. In accordance with the journal's policy of blind submission, the author's name and institution should appear only on the title page. A one or two paragraph abstract on a separate sheet of paper should precede the main body of the article. Upon acceptance, authors of articles and book reviews are requested to supply a final, clean copy on disk (Word or Word Perfect preferred). Authors will receive proofs which must be corrected and returned within forty-eight hours of receipt. No new material may be inserte d in the text at the proofreading stage. Upon publication, authors receive 3 copies of the issue in which their work appears. Authors whose manuscripts have been accepted for publication warrant: (1) that the ms. has not been published elsewhere in English, and that the ms. will not be published in English until after publication in Paradoxa; (2) that Paradoxa will be held financially blameless, and that the author will be financially responsible for any legal action taken against Paradoxa as a result of publishing the author's contribution; (3) that Paradoxa retains the right to republish the manuscript in any issue or reissue of Paradoxa or in any anthology published by Paradoxa and; (4) that in any republication, the author will acknowledge its first publication in Paradoxa. All other rights are released to the author.
