About the journal
About the Journal
Founded under the editorship of the antiquary W J Thoms, the primary intention of Notes and Queries was, and still remains, the asking and answering of readers' questions. It is devoted principally to English language and literature, lexicography, history, and scholarly antiquarianism.
Each issue focuses on the works of a particular period, with an emphasis on the factual rather than the speculative. The journal comprises notes, book reviews, readers' queries and replies.

4. QUOTATIONS
If these form part of the text and do not exceed about three lines they should run on in the text within single quotation marks. Any reference given should follow immediately in parentheses. E.g.:
Camiola, in answer to Bertoldo's appeal, `Is there no hope left me?' gives him this cold comfort:...
Crashaw's line `Amorous Languishments, Luminous trances' (`On a prayer booke', line 63), is only a slight variation ...
For simple quotation, single quotation marks are used; for quotation within a quotation, double quotation marks. E.g.:
Who now remembers `And laugh'd and shouted, ``Lost! lost! lost!''
When a quotation has no final punctuation mark of its own, the closing quotation mark should precede the punctuation mark of clause or sentence. E.g.:
Years ago Mr Disraeli called Sir Robert Peel's Ministry `an organized hypocrisy', so much did the ideas of its `head' differ from the sensations of its `tail'.
A word or phrase discussed individually should be underlined, and any interpretation of it put in single quotation marks. E.g.:
For Cain 1261 (misread as cam) he writes camp `battle'.
Longer quotations, whether verse or prose, should be broken off from the text and marked as verse extract or prose extract. Quotation marks should not be used. For a quotation within a long quotation use single quotation marks. Editorial insertions should be within square brackets.
5. NUMBERS AND DATES
In references to pagination, dates, etc. use the least number of figures possible separated by an en-rule; e.g., print 42-3, 132-6, 1841-5, 1960-1, 1966/7; but print, e.g., 10-11, not 10-1; 16-18, not 16-8; 116-18, not 116-8; 210-11, not 210-1 (i.e. for the group 10-19 in each hundred).
For dates, write 1897-8, not 1897-98; do not contract dates involving different centuries, e.g. 1798-1810, not 1798-810. In displayed matter (e.g. titles) all dates should be in full: 1960-1961. Exact dates should take this form: 16 May 1913 (without comma). Let AD precede the year, but let BC follow (small caps, no full stops).
