Author Guidelines

Dear author, please utilize this template for the submission: https://we.tl/t-nod1NjOsr1

Submissions of articles, essays, translations and reviews must follow the following rules:

1. They must be typed in a .doc file, A4 page size, 1.5 spacing, Times New Roman font, size 12 for the body of the text, 10 for highlighted citations of more than three lines and 10 for footnotes (USE THE RESOURCES OF WORD ITSELF). Paragraph entries must be 1.5 cm (USE WORD PARAGRAPH FORMATTING FEATURES). Highlighted citations must be 4.0 cm away from the left margin of the text.
2. Articles must not exceed 25 pages and must include on the first page an INDICATIVE SUMMARY (NBR 6028 - ABNT), with a maximum of 100 words and five KEYWORDS, separated by commas and ending with a period, in the language of the text. In addition, the TITLE must be included in one of the languages: ENGLISH, FRENCH, ITALIAN, OR GERMAN, with a summary and keywords with the same formatting.

 


2.1. In the case of translations, essays and reviews, the rules in item 2 may vary.

3. A small presentation of the author (last training, course and institution to which he/she is linked) must be included in a footnote marked by an * (asterisk).
4. References to general philosophy citations should preferably be in the body of the text in the system (Author, DATE, page), following NBR 10520 / 2023 and may also be in a footnote as long as a standard is chosen and maintained;
5. For classic philosophy authors, references must be given, in the footer or in the body of the text, according to the corresponding established academic standard. Below, we offer some cases of authors and works, with appropriate examples:

- The Diels-Kranz (DK) reference for pre-Socratic authors. E.g., for fragment 7, lines 1-2, of Parmenides (which constitutes chapter 28 B of the Diels and Kranz edition):

“No, it is impossible for this to prevail, being (the) non-being;
But you turn away from this path of inquiry” (DK 28 B 7:1-2).

- The Stephanus pagination  for Plato's texts, which originates from the 1578 bilingual (Latin-Greek) edition of the Platonic dialogues, edited by Henricus Stephanus. For example, for the following passage from the República, cited prominently and, hypothetically, indicated in the footer:

Therefore, the good quality of speech, harmony, grace and rhythm depends on the quality of character, not that which, being weakness of spirit, we familiarly call naivety, but on the intelligence that truly shapes the character in goodness and beauty. (4)

(4) Rep., 400d-e.

- The Immanuel Bekker pagination for Aristotle's texts. E.g., for the following passages of the Rhetoric (chapter II, paragraph 1, passage 1378 a, lines 19-20) and the Metaphysics (indicated by the abbreviation Met., in a quote made by PUENTE, Fernando Rey. The senses of time in Aristotle. São Paulo: Loyola, 2001, p. 69):

“Passions, through the disturbances they cause, modify judgments” (Rhetoric, II, 1, 1378 a 19-20).

Discussing the irregularity of the accident, Aristotle states that “not always, nor in most cases, the white man is a musician, but since at any moment he becomes [a musician], [then] he will be so by accident” (Met 1027 to 11-12).

- The indication of parts, propositions, corollaries, etc., for Spinoza's texts. For example, for Ethics, Part II, Proposition 40, Scholium 2 (cited prominently and, hypothetically, with reference indicated in the footer):

In addition to these two types of knowledge, there is still a third, as I will show below, which we will call intuitive science. This kind of knowledge proceeds from the adequate idea of the formal essence of certain attributes of God to the adequate knowledge of the formal essence of things.(17)

- Paragraphs or aphorisms for texts by Hegel, Nietzsche, Pascal, etc., as per the following examples:

For paragraph 24 of Hegel's Principles of the Philosophy of Right (FD):

“The will is universal, because all restrictions and all particular singularities are suspended in it [...]” (FD, § 24).

For the fragment of Pensamentos, by Blaise Pascal, which, in the Lafuma edition is numbered 713 and, in the Brunshwicg edition, number 4, there is the option of a double reference:

“To mock philosophy is, in truth, to philosophize” (Br 4, La 713).

Assessment policy

Kalagatos Philosophical Journal uses the double-blind system as a criterion for evaluating texts sent for publication, as it is the most democratic and with the greatest possibility of impartiality. In this system, the text is sent without any identification of its author to two reviewers. Approval to publish will occur after the minimum return of a favorable opinion for publication. In case of contrary opinions, the text will be sent to a third reviewer to analyze. Upon submission, a complementary document must be sent with the title of the author and co-author(s), as well as email and institutional affiliation.
