  • Belles-lettres and literary criticism of the period
  • Religious and philosophical movements
  • Ethnic minorities and interactions among Chinese and non-native dynasties
  • Art and archaeology
  • Scientific and technological inventions

Instructions to Authors

Journal statement

Early Medieval China welcomes original submissions that match the aims and scope of the journal on the understanding that the article has not previously been published, and is not being concurrently submitted for publication elsewhere. It is a condition of publication that on acceptance of the article by the journal Editor that copyright must be assigned to the Early Medieval China Group and an Assignment of Copyright Form will be circulated with proofs.

How to submit

Submission instructions
Submissions are not limited to members of the Early Medieval China Group. Research may be in any discipline and should concern the people, events, or culture of the period between the end of the Han and beginning of the Tang eras (AD 220–618). As historical boundaries are rarely abrupt or sharp, the journal’s coverage is occasionally extended in either direction. Feature articles are generally 10,000 to 15,000 words in length.

All submissions as well as proposals for bibliographic articles, translations, and conference reports should be sent to the Editor, J. Michael FarmerEarly Medieval China, 800 W. Campbell Rd, JO 31, Richardson TX 75080, USA, farmer@utdallas.edu.

Submissions should be prepared in accordance with the style and referencing guidelines below. All submissions should be double-spaced (including double-spaced for block quotations) and preferably use Times New Roman, size 12 font. Notes must be listed in sequence (using arabic numerals) and placed at the end of the article. Please provide a short abstract (approximately 300 words) and five keywords that summarize the article. Authors will also need to supply an academic biography (50-75 words) and correspondence details along with their submission. Articles that do not conform to these guidelines will be returned to the author.

All submissions are evaluated through a peer-review process. The Editor serves as the first reviewer of an article, screening articles to ascertain whether the quality is consistent with Early Medieval China's scope and mission. Articles meeting the journal's general standards are then sent to independent referees. To ensure blind reviews from referees, authors should remove their names from the article. Supply instead a separate cover sheet with the author’s name, address and email address. Two hard copies should be sent to the Editor in addition to an electronic Word file by email attachment. Please supply illustrations as high resolution files with captions in a separate Word file.

Book reviews
Books for review and inquiries about review articles and book notices should be sent to the Editor, J. Michael Farmer at the above address.

Open Access options: MORE Open Choice
Maney offers authors a choice in publishing their research. Authors who require their article to be available immediately in the public domain online (open access) may pay the Article Publication Charge (APC) associated with the journal via ManeyTrack once they receive email notification that their article has gone into production. Information about MORE OpenChoice Maney’s immediate (Gold) open access policy is available on our open access information page.

The Article Publication Charge (APC) associated with this journal is £500 or US$800 per article.

Authors may alternatively choose a delayed open access (Green) option by self-archiving the post-print version (the accepted, peer-reviewed manuscript) in the institutional repository of their higher education employer and/or in subject-based repositories (but not posted to personal, institutional nor social networking sites), subject to a 24 month embargo period. More information about our green archiving policy can be found via our open access information page.

Preparing your article

In preparing your article in Microsoft Word, there is no need to format articles. Use a single (not double) space after the full point at the end of sentences. Please use plain style and avoid elaborate layout or typography, but include italics or bold type when necessary, and make sure that headings and subheadings are clearly visible as such. Words should not be hyphenated at the end of a line. Consistency in spacing, punctuation, and spelling will be of help. References and captions should be placed at the end of the file. Photographs, maps, and other supporting material are encouraged. Please use hard returns only at the end of paragraphs, switch auto-hyphenation off, and do not justify text. Figures and Tables should be submitted as separate files and keyed horizontally from left to right using a tab between columns, not the space bar (or keyed in Table mode in Word).

Article titles
The article title should be concise, accurate, and informative. Titles are often used by search engines and other information retrieval systems. The title should be specific and it should contain words that readers might be searching for.

Abstracts
The abstract is an important part of the article and will be used in Abstracting and Indexing services where the journal is listed, searched by Google and other search engines, and freely available online. Abstracts should be succinct but sufficiently comprehensive to provide a comprehensible summary of the article. 

Keywords
Keywords are also important as they facilitate searching and accurate identification. The more accurate the choice of keywords, the more likely the article will be found, read and referenced.

Conditions of Submission
By submitting to this journal, authors acknowledge and accept that articles are considered for publication on the basis that:

  1. The article presents original work that is not being considered or reviewed by any other publication, and has not been published elsewhere in the same or a similar form;
  2. All authors are aware of, and have consented to, the submission to the journal;
  3. Due regard has been paid to ethical considerations relating to the work reported;
  4. The article contains, to the best of the authors' knowledge, no libellous or unlawful statements.

Submissions are vetted for quality of written language and may be rejected on these grounds. Maney recommends that any non-native English speaking author who is not confident of their English language skills ask a native English speaker or professional language-editing service to review their article before submission. This is not mandatory but will help ensure that the Editors and reviewers fully understand the academic content of the article.

Use of an editing service does not guarantee that your article will be accepted for publication. A decision will be made following the usual peer review process.

For information about language editing services and discounts for Maney authors, please visit our language editing page.

Titles of works in East Asian languages cited in endnotes

Book titles
Provide romanized names and titles followed by characters (except for very well-known works; see above, point 2). Include full information about the edition used but do not provide characters for the place of publication nor for the names of publishing companies.

Pre-modern work

  1. Pre-modern edition: Liu Xiang 劉向 (79–8 BC), comp., Shuo yuan 說苑 (SBBY),14.7a–9b.
  2. Modern edition: Xu Song 許嵩 (fl. 756–762), Jiankang shilu 建康實錄 (Shanghai: Shanghai guji chubanshe, 1987), 16.441–42.

Modern work

  1. Lu Qinli 逯欽立, ed., Xian Qin Han Wei Jin Nanbeichao shi 先秦漢魏晉南北朝詩, 3 vols. (Beijing: Renmin wenxue chubanshe, 1985), 2: 1401–402.

Note
When citing a multi-volume work with continuous pagination, such as the example above, indicating the volume number in which the reference occurs is optional, although recommended by the Chicago Manual of Style. If the volume number is indicated, insert a space between the colon and the page reference.

Essays or journal articles
Provide romanized names and titles followed by the characters.

  1. Liu Yuejin 劉躍進, “Cai Yong zhushu zhilu” 蔡邕著述摭錄, in Ershiyi shiji Han Wei Liuchao wenxue xinshijiao, Kang Dawei jiaoshou huajia jinian lunwenji 二十一世紀漢魏六朝文學新 視角, 康達維教授花甲紀念論文集, ed. Su Jui-long; 蘇瑞隆 and Gong Hang 龔航 (Taibei: Wenjin chubanshe, 2001), 138–50, esp. 144–46.

Essay or article in a journal

  1. Kumagai Nobuo 熊谷宣夫, “Tachibana shorai Toroban shutsudo kinen bunsho” 橘師將來吐魯 番出土紀年文書 [Added English title: The Dated Manuscripts Brought Back from Turfan by the Reverend Tachibana],Bijutusu kenkyu 213 (1960): 169–83.

Notes

  1. Insert a space between the colon and page reference.
  2. If a Chinese author is known by a name not romanized in pinyin (e.g., Feng Yu-lan; Su Jui-long), use that non-pinyin spelling.
  3. The inclusion of added titles in translation that were printed originally with the work (first example above) is optional.
  4. When a journal publishes more than one issue a year and uses continuous pagination after issue no.1 (e.g., HJAS, JAOS, T’oung Pao), do not include the issue number or month / season in your citation—only the volume number and year, as follows: Etienne Balazs, “Le traité économique du Souei chou,” T’oung Pao 42 (1953): 113–329.

References in subsequent notes to previously cited material

Abbreviations
In the first citation, indicate the abbreviation you wish to use in later notes:

  1. From the biography of Yu Jun 庾 峻 (d. 273), Jin shu [hereafter JS] 50.1392–94.

Later references to the Jin shu should then be abbreviated as JS.

  1. From the biography of Xie An 謝安 (320–385), JS 79.2072.

Notes

  1. Unless you indicate otherwise, it is assumed that the edition cited of the standard histories is the punctuated Beijing, Zhonghua shuju edition. Romanizations of the histories’ titles are at least two words: Shi ji, Hou Han shu, Song shu, Bei shi, etc. Do not include characters for the titles or the authors’ names/dates unless this information is relevant to your article.
  2. Provide the Chinese characters, and birth–death years for all historical figures. If the person’s dates are not known, you may use an approximate date (see ‘Miscellaneous’ section) or add “(dates unknown).”; Do not abbreviate year dates, i.e., “320–85” should not be written for a historical period because it can be confused for a range of pages.
  3. When a modern edition has multiple volumes, do not cite the volume or ce number. JS; 79. 2072 is correct not JS 7.79.2072.
  4. For HJAS and JAOS, it is not necessary to explain the abbreviation. Likewise, references to this journal as EMC may be made without indicating the journal’s full name.
  5. Subsequent references do not repeat the publication information nor do they repeat any characters previously supplied.
  6. Shuo yuan 15.1b. Kumagai Nobuo, “Tachibana shorai Toroban shutsudo kinen bunsho,” 172.

Page, volume, and Juan references in citations

Use an en-dash (not a hyphen) both for a range of “birth to death years” and for any citation that extends beyond one page, e.g. 115–17 not 115-17.

Notes

  1. Do not write “p.” or “pp.” before the page reference, except in instances when there is potential for confusing a page reference for a Juan or note reference.
  2. Observe the following page-citation style
    1. From a double-digit page number to another double digit page number: 51–52 and 51–62;
    2. From a triple-digit page number to another triple-digit page number: 105–6, 151–52, and 189–231;
    3. For modern texts in multiple volumes, indicate the total number of volumes before the publication information; then indicate the volume in which the cited passage appears, followed by a colon, a space, and the page number. i. Feng Yu-lan, A History of Chinese Philosophy, trans. Derk Bodde, 2d ed., 2 vols. (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1952–1953), 2: 165–67.

For pre-modern texts, indicate the Juan number first, followed by a period and the page number (no space between the period and page number). For example, once publication information has been given for a modern edition of the pre-modern Shishuo xinyu, it may be referenced as follows:
Shishuo xinyu 8.333.

When including an item number within a Juan, distinguish the item from the page number:
Shishuo xinyu 8.335 (no. 42) or Shishuo xinyu 8.42 (p. 335).

When citing any modern text by its title and/or author, or when citing any pre-modern work only by its author, it is necessary to place a comma after the title or author’s name and before the volume number or page number. In the following examples, the full publication information had previously been supplied:

  1. A History of Chinese Philosophy, 2: 142.
  2. Balazs, “Le traité économique du Souei chou,” 203–6.
  3. Kang-i Sun Chang, 177.
  4. Lu Qinli, 3: 2463. (or Lu Qinli, vol. 3, “Chen shi” 2, 2463).
  5. Liu Xie, 1: 4.367. (compare:; Wenxin diaolong 1: 4.367).

References to pre-modern texts in a collectaneus (congshu series)

Texts in standard congshu series
Li Ji zhengyi 禮記正義 (in Shisanjing zhushu [Zhonghua shuju 1980 facsimile], hereafter Shisanjing), 21.1414a–c.
Liu Jingsu 劉敬叔 (fl. 468), Yi yuan 異苑 (in Xuejin taoyuan 學津討源), 3.4a/b.

Note
In the first example, “a–c” refers to the three registers printed on the same page in a modern facsimile of the work. In the second example, “a/b” refers to the recto and verso of a folded sheet in a traditionally printed and bound Chinese text.

Buddhist texts in the Taisho series
Reference includes volume number only: [text][vol.], e.g., T 262: 9

Reference includes page number: [text][vol.][pg], e.g., T 262: 9.58b–c

Reference includes line number: [text][vol.][pg][line], e.g., T 262: 9.58b–c11–13

Notes

  1. Place one space between the T and the text number, without a period.
  2. Place one space after the colon and then write the volume number.
  3. Place a period between the volume number and the page number.
  4. If a line number is cited, place it immediately after the page number without a space.

Miscellaneous

  1. Acknowledgment note: Do not use an asterisk * to mark your acknowledgment, and do not number it. Instead, simply place the acknowledgement at the head of the endnote section.
  2. Leave only one space after the final punctuation mark at the end of each sentence. Likewise, leave only one space after a colon.
  3. For approximated dates, write “ca.” (e.g., “ca. 521,” not “c. 521”).
  4. For the abbreviation of century, write “c.” (e.g., 6th c.– 7th c.).
  5. BC follows a year, e.g., “80 BC” and AD precedes the year, e.g., “AD 384”.
  6. Do not italicize the following:
    1. et al.
    2. ibid.
  7. EM-dash: Do not leave any blank space before or after the em-dash, e.g., “Although Hou Jing was short—just over five feet—and walked with a limp, his Liang shu biography relates that he was a skilled mounted archer”.
  8. Ellipses: A space is required both before and after each ellipsis point. Input these manually by typing the “sentence-period key” followed by the space bar (do not use the automatic “insert ellipses” command of your word-processing program). For example, “On the 5th day of the 12th month, the king . . . summoned Kuang”.
  9. If an ellipsis is applied at the end of a complete sentence, place a period at the end of the sentence, then add the three additional points of the ellipsis with a space both before and after each point, as shown in the example. “On the 5th day of the 12thmonth, the king summoned Kuang. . . .”
  10. For ellipsis points in a poem, make one line of continuous dots that is approximately the length of the line above, with a space before and after each point except the first one. E.g.,

    Bitter it is that my aims and deeds have never tallied,
    Nigh ten years of joy and sorrow are gone by.

    Now I cast aside sportive jaunts at the Wan and the Luo,
    Long will be my absence from within the Gold Portal.
    Tsyau-tsyau—ripples are plied by the light oars;
    On and on—we trudge a cliffside pass.
    Though I have yet to “follow rivers and seas,”
    Here it is that mountains and forests commence.

  11. Block quotes: Block quotes should be double-spaced with approximately one-half inch indentation on both the left and right margins. Leave one extra line space both before and after the block quote.

Supplementary material

Supplementary material gives authors the opportunity to enhance their work by including material that cannot be included in an article for reasons of space, is of very specific interest, or is not compatible with the standard journal format (e.g. audio or video files, animations, software, models, or large datasets). Supplementary material is intended to support arguments advanced in the article; it should not refer to other work nor contain discussion or conclusions that go beyond the content of the article. The inclusion of supplementary material is at the discretion of the Editor whose decision is final.

Supplementary material will be published online and linked to and from the article. It is considered to form an integral part of the article and will be peer reviewed and subject to the same ethical standards, warranties and conditions of submission. Authors will be required to sign an Assignment of Copyright form and provide the same warranties in respect of supplementary material as for the article itself.

To assure continuity of access and effective archiving, supplementary files will be published online with the journal content, unless the data appears in an open access database such as GEO or CIF or a widely recognized subject based repository. It is not acceptable to link to files held on personal or other websites.

Whenever possible, include supplementary material on initial submission of the article since peer review at a later stage may cause delays. Supplementary material will be hyperlinked from the main article. In preparing an article:

  • ensure each supplementary file is referred to at the appropriate point in the manuscript using the correct style for the journal: (Supplementary Material 1), (Supplementary Material 2), etc.
  • provide a separate document giving the title and a brief description of each supplementary file, plus detailed captions for non-text files (figures, video, audio, software, datasets, etc.)
  • distinguish supplementary tables, figures and references using the numbering system S1, S2, S3, etc.

Supplementary material must be self-contained, i.e. capable of being understood without reference to other material. Supplementary files are not edited and may not be typeset. It is the responsibility of the authors to ensure the content is correct, consistent with the article itself, consistent with journal style and self-contained. CrossRef reference linking may not be active in all file formats; the use of additional references in the supplementary files should therefore be kept to a minimum.

Acceptable file formats for supplementary material include:

  • text files: Word, RTF, PDF, SGML, txt
  • tables: Word, RTF, Excel, PDF
  • figures: TIFF, JPEG, EPS, BMP, GIF
  • presentations: PowerPoint, PDF
  • audio/video files: MPEG, WFV
  • data and software files running on recognized programs.

Please consult with the journal Editor prior to submitting supplementary material and ensure that they are aware of the additional file(s) when you submit your article for peer review.

Illustrations

Illustrations of all types—photographs, line drawings, maps—are particularly welcomed. They should be used wherever they contribute to the subject matter of the article. These should be submitted in separate files and numbered sequentially using Arabic numerals. Each must have a caption and source. Within the text, figures and tables should be referred to by number (e.g. Figure 1; Table 1), and preferred position, sizing, and groupings in the text should be clearly indicated. Images can be supplied electronically in CMYK format as TIFF or EPS files at high resolution suitable for printing.

As a guideline, images should be submitted at the following minimum input scanning resolutions:
 

full colour images

half tones

slides or transparencies

simple line illustrations

fine line illustrations

300 dpi

350-400 dpi

600 dpi

800 dpi

1200 dpi

Please note that the final reproduction quality is dependent on the quality of the original illustration. Prior to submission, we would advise authors to print out, at roughly the size required for publication, all images supplied electronically so the hard copy image can be assessed for contrast etc.—what might be clear and legible on a full computer screen will not be the same printed out at journal text/column width or less.

Manipulation of images to enhance, obscure or remove individual features is not permitted. Adjustment of brightness, contrast or colour balance may be applied to the entire image provided the result does not mislead the viewer. Significant digital manipulation of images must be acknowledged in the figure caption.

Labels/legends should be in a consistent standard font such as Times New Roman or Arial and embedded in the image file. Please do not use effects such as outlining and shadows on lettering. Any lines should be a minimum of 0.3pt.

Captions should be submitted in a separate file. The author must obtain written evidence of permission to reproduce images (in all formats, in perpetuity and in all geographical regions worldwide) from the copyright owner for the use of any illustrative matter in the journal and will be liable for any fee charged by the owner of the image. The caption should include relevant credit of the permission of the copyright holder to reproduce the image.

Illustration checklist:

  • Files are provided in TIFF or EPS format.
  • Artwork is of sufficient resolution for its style.
  • All images are the size intended for publication and all unnecessary elements have been removed.
  • All fonts used for any text are embedded and standard fonts (Arial/Times New Roman). Font size is consistent.
  • Any lines are a minimum of 0.3pt.
  • Images do not contain any layers or transparent objects.
  • Files are named according to convention.
  • Artwork is provided in separate files to the main text.
  • Captions and figure titles are provided in separate file.
  • All rights/permissions have been secured.

Using copyrighted material

Authors who wish to reproduce material from previously published sources or where copyright is owned by a third party, such as sections of text or images, must obtain written permission from the copyright holder and any other interested party. Authors should obtain permission to use items within the context of the article ensuring they explicitly obtain permission for the following areas:

  1. Permission in all geographical regions of the world,
  2. Permission in all formats including electronic,
  3. Permission in perpetuity, including the online version.

A letter template that authors can use to seek such permissions is obtainable by clicking here. The author should fill in the details of the article and the journal title and obtain a signature to the letter. Many copyright owners prefer to provide their own letter of permission and this is acceptable as long as the three requirements above are included.

Author images
If authors wish to retain copyright of their own images in their manuscript, this can be accommodated. Authors wishing to retain the copyright in an image should indicate this by adding into the figure caption wording such as “© Author name” or “Copyright Author name”. This will ensure that anyone who may subsequently want to reference the work or reuse the image will know who owns the copyright and therefore who to contact for permission to do so.

Using images from Google
Authors may use Google Map/Google Earth images in articles (where necessary) subject to the guidelines published by Google on its website (http://www.google.com/permissions/geoguidelines.html). Full acknowledgement must be given in the caption credit. These Google guidelines suggest that a Google Map/Google Earth image may be used only if the view shown is distinctive. If the view is not distinctive, the image may not be used. The website noted above includes examples of distinctive and non-distinctive material. Authors may include links to Google pages in their article as long as they do not use Google logos as links.

Using images and other content from the internet
The internet is not a copyright free zone and copyright laws apply, sometimes more rigorously than for other mediums such as print. Authors must check the terms and conditions of the website and/or the copyright disclaimer; if these items are not visible please do not assume that re-using content is acceptable. Please visit our Publishing Ethics policy page for full details.

Plagiarism and publishing ethics

It is the responsibility of the author to ensure that they comply with Maney’s copyright and ethics (including plagiarism) policies. Strong policies in these areas protect the rights of authors, editors, reviewers and publishers alike ensuring the reputation of the publication and copyright holders. Please click here for our full Publishing Ethics policy.

COPE

This journal supports the ethical principles set out by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) available on its website.

CrossCheck

Maney is a member of CrossCheck, the multi-publisher initiative to combat plagiarism and redundant publication. Submissions are checked for similarity against the CrossCheck database using iThenticate software. View Maney’s plagiarism policy. Find out more about CrossCheck.

Online colour

Colour illustrations will be published in the online version of the journal free of charge. Authors have the opportunity to enhance the appearance of their article, improve its clarity, and heighten its impact by using colour for diagrams, graphs and illustrations. Authors should consider the use of colour within their articles carefully to ensure that meaning is not lost from diagrams if produced in greyscale in the printed journal. Where it may be necessary to adjust the contrast after conversion to preserve clarity, authors are advised to supply both colour and adjusted greyscale images. Authors should bear this in mind when preparing the format of the images for submission and when obtaining permission to use material from third parties. For more information please see the copyright and permissions page.

After acceptance

ManeyTrack
Once an issue has moved into typesetting, each corresponding author will receive login details for Maney Track, Maney Publishing's web-based production tracking system. Authors are able to view the live production status of articles. Key estimated and actual production stages and dates, such as expected proof receipt and publication information are displayed, and can be accessed by the author at any time.

ManeyTrack also offers authors a secure and quick location for the payment and tracking of orders for offprints, issue copies (if the journal has a print offering) and to make an article open access via Maney's MORE OpenChoice offering.

Digital Object Identifier
The Digital Object Identifier (DOI) is a unique identifier assigned to a document by the publisher. The assigned DOI never changes and therefore is the ideal way to cite and link to electronic documents, particularly ‘Advance Articles’ because they have not yet received full bibliographic information.

Proofs
Proofs will be supplied by email to either the first-named or nominated author. Proofs will be supplied for checking and making essential typographical corrections only, not for general revision, alteration, or changes to illustrations. Revised proofs will not generally be supplied to authors. Significant changes to the article will only be considered at this stage with permission from the Editor. Authors may be asked to bear the cost of excessive changes, other than those caused by typesetting errors.

Some journals manage the proofing process electronically. For those journals which do offer this, authors will need to download Adobe Reader, available free from http://get.adobe.com/uk/reader, and use the Comment and/or Editing Tools to indicate changes directly onto the PDF file.

Authors may also email the necessary corrections as a list citing the page and line number where a correction needs to be made, how the text currently appears, and what it should be changed to, or use the BSI proof marks to indicate changes on a paper printout of the PDF file and email or fax.

All corrections should be returned together within three (3) days of receipt, by email or fax, unless advised otherwise. Please ensure all corrections are sent in one communication as inclusion of subsequent corrections cannot be guaranteed.

Eprints
Corresponding authors receive a screen-resolution PDF file (Eprint) of the published version of their article by email upon publication of the article within an issue, which may be forwarded and shared with all co-authors, and other research associates, but it cannot be archived or put on a personal or institutional website, or in a subject-based open access repository. More information is also provided in the Assignment of Copyright form distributed to authors (see the Supporting Resources section in the right-hand column of this page to download this form). Orders for digital offprints may be made at the time proofs are distributed, via ManeyTrack. Log-in details for ManeyTrack are supplied via email to the corresponding author once the issue in which the article to be published has moved into typesetting.

Corresponding authors may purchase printed copies of the issue in which their article is published, via ManeyTrack once they receive their Eprint (please see above).

Permissions
Any reproduction from this journal, apart from for the purposes of review, private research or 'fair dealing', must have the permission of the copyright holder.
