Text Submission Guidelines

 
Please email your article or review as a Microsoft Word document to either dsingsen@hotmail or koyaanisquiles@gmail.com. Features and Practice articles should not exceed 3000 words; reviews should not exceed 1500 words. Questions should be directed to the editors at either of the emails above.

Please do not call the Art History department with questions or comments because they do not handle the production of the journal and will not be able to answer questions about it. All submissions will be read and formal responses will be made. In the event of acceptance, authors are responsible for obtaining images, reproduction permissions, and all related costs.

We encourage everyone to include as many links as possible in their articles to make PART as online-oriented as possible.

Put footnotes/endnotes in a separate word document by themselves. Do not use the auto-footnote/endnote function within your word-processing program. Type the number for the footnote in normal case between brackets within the text of the article where you would like it to appear.

  • Example: Robert Rosenblum has identified the discourse of abstract virtue as one of the central features of Neoclassical history painting.[1]

When formatting book and article titles, please italicize titles and put articles in quotes. Do not underline books, as underlining on the web generally indicates a hyperlink. To avoid confusion, do not underline anything that is not a link; use bold or italics instead.

Images should be submitted in either jpeg or gif format. Make sure that permission to use all images is secured before submission, including payment of any necessary fees. To this end, make sure that all images submitted are accompanied by credit information, including artist's name, title of piece, year, media, dimensions, and appropriate credit line:

  • Example: Whitfield Lovell, Eight Rock, 1999, charcoal on wood, posts, 98 x 70 x 21 inches. Photo by Jim Frank, courtesy of the artist.

Follow this example in terms of the order of information, as well as format for dimensions (no quotes, inches spelled out), etc. If dimensions contain fractions, convert them to decimal format. The credit lines for each image should be put into a text document separate from the images, making sure that it is clear which image goes with which credit line.

When you submit your article, you can use the following checklist to ensure that you have included all the materials in the proper format.

  • Text of article
  • List of footnotes
  • Images
  • Image captions
  • Bio of author
