About the journal
THE THOMIST appeals to a wide international readership in the university, the seminary, and the Church. In the tradition and spirit of Thomas Aquinas, it seeks to promote original and penetrating inquiry into the full range of contemporary philosophical and theological questions. It undertakes particularly to support sustained discussion of issues of philosophy and systematic theology, where such discussion can be advanced by creative use of the thought of Aquinas and significant authors in the Thomistic tradition. In this way The Thomist seeks to cultivate a fruitful dialogue between modern and contemporary philosophical systems and the classical tradition of philosophy and Christian theology.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTRIBUTORS
|
1. Address all contributions, books for review, and related correspondence to the Editor, Joseph Torchia, O.P. c/o The Thomist, 487 Michigan Avenue, NE, Washington, DC 20017.
|
2. Contributions will not be returned unless return postage is enclosed.
|
3. Submission of a manuscript is taken to imply that it has not been previously published, or is not being considered for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts submitted to the journal should generally be between 5,000 and 10,000 words long, though shorter or lengthier contributions will be considered.
|
4. Contributions should be formatted for blind review. They should be submitted in duplicate, double-spaced (including footnotes), and printed on one side of the sheet only. Electronic submissions are not accepted in lieu of printed copies. Footnotes should be numbered in one sequence throughout the article and should be placed at the end of the article. The manuscript should be prepared to accord as closely as possible with the typographical conventions of The Thomist. The University of Chicago Manual of Style (13th edition, revised) is our authority in matters of style.
|
5. Contributors should retain one copy of the manuscript for correcting proofs.
|
6. The staff will be unable to respond to authors?inquiries about their contributions after acknowledgments of receipt are sent to them and while their manuscripts are under consideration by the editors.
|
7. Galley-proofs of articles are sent to contributors to be read and corrected and should be returned to the Managing Editor within ten days of receipt. Corrections should be confined to typographical and factual errors. More extensive corrections can be made only with the concurrence of an editor. Contributors may be liable for additional printer’s costs incurred because of non-typographical corrections.
|
8. Contributors of articles receive 25 free offprints and one copy of the journal. Additional offprints are available at cost plus postage, provided these are ordered at the time of returning corrected galley-proofs.

A glance at recent issues of the journal should settle most questions of form in reviews. Unsolicited book reviews (other than review discussion articles) are rarely accepted for publication. Galley-proofs of reviews are not sent to reviewers. Reviewers receive one free issue of The Thomist.
