About the journal Studies in Religion/Sciences Religieuses is a bilingual Canadian academic quarterly, serving scholars who work in a wide range of sub-fields in religious studies and theological studies. It publishes scholarly articles of interest to specialists, but written so as to be intelligible to other scholars who wish to keep informed of current scholarship. It also features articles that focus, in a timely (au courant) and critically reflective manner, on general intellectual, professional and institutional issues in the scholarly study of religion, and notices that inform scholars of activites and developments in religious studies and theological studies across Canada.

- The editors reserve the right to make editorial changes in all articles, solicited or unsolicited, in the interests of clarity, brevity or uniformity of style.
- Proofs will be sent to the author and must be returned promptly after necessary corrections are made. An author may be charged for excessive changes made in proof. The editors will decline to accept changes in proof judged to be non-essential.
- Ten offprints and two copies of the number in which the article appears will be supplied free of charge.
- PREPARING THE MANUSCRIPT
- The article should be limited to 12,000 words including Notes and References; shorter articles are welcomed. The text must be typed clearly and double-spaced throughout, leaving generous margins.
- The first page of each article must comprise the author's name and position, the name of his or her institution, and the full title of the article. The second page must consist of an abstract of the article in English and in French, each not exceeding 10 lines, with the exact mailing address of the author, including E-mail address.
- Footnotes are normally not used. If notes are absolutely necessary, they must be placed at the end of the article in a section entitled Notes which appears before the list of References.
- Tables and artwork are accepted only in exceptional cases. They must be submitted on separate sheets, and must be suitable for immediate photographic reproduction.
- Authors whose articles have been accepted must provide an electronic version, prepared in accordance with instructions that will be provided.
- STYLE AND REFERENCES
- SR's style conforms, in English-language articles, to The Canadian Style: A Guide to Writing and Editing, (revised and expanded ed., 1997). Spelling conforms to the Gage Canadian Dictionary (revised and expanded ed., 1997).
- All referencing must be meticulous and conform to SR's author-date system, which will commence with volume 28 (1999). References are enclosed in parentheses and placed in the text. Each reference must include last name of author(s), date of publication and, if precision demands, exact page number(s). The following examples illustrate the usual cases: (Barker 1986), (Anttonen 1996: 36), (Smith and Trottier 1965: 330-45); more than two authors (Parry et al. 1998); multiple references (Jones 1991, 1995: 234; Lawson 1980; cf. Roy 1970); original publication date, if necessary (Durkheim 1995 [1912]); plural references in the same year (Sperber 1996a, 1996b: 143-69); if an author is mentioned in the text, the reference indicates only date(s) and page(s), for example (1991) or (1966: 233-45).
All references cited in the text--but only those cited--are placed alphabetically and chronologically in a section entitled References at the end of the article. Article titles appear in quotation marks and only the first word, first word after a colon and proper nouns are capitalized. Book and journal titles are capitalized and set in italics. The following examples illustrate format and some usual cases:
