About the journal
Aims & Scope
The Journal of Legal History, founded in 1980, is the only British journal concerned solely with legal history. It publishes articles in English on the sources and development of the common law, both in the British Isles and overseas, on the history of the laws of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, and on Roman Law and the European legal tradition. There is a section for shorter research notes, review-articles, and a wide-ranging section of reviews of recent literature
Abstracting & Indexing
Articles appearing in this journal are abstracted and indexed in America: History and Life; British Humanities Index; Historical Abstracts; Index to Legal Periodicals; International Bibliography of Book Reviews (IBR); International Bibliography of Periodicals Literature (IBZ); Social Planning/Policy and Development Abstracts; Sociological Abstracts, Thomson Reuters Arts & Humanities Citation Index and University Microfilms Products.
Instructions to Authors
Note: authors are asked to ensure that their contact address information is clearly visible on the outside of all packages which are sent to editors.
MANUSCRIPTS
Manuscripts and editorial correspondence should be addressed to Dr Neil Jones, Magdalene College, Cambridge, CB3 0AG, UK. E-mail: ngj10@cam.ac.uk.
Books for review should be addressed to Dr Charlotte Smith, School of Law, University of Reading, Foxhill House, Whiteknights Road, Reading, RG6 7BA, UK. E-mail: c.l.smith@reading.ac.uk.
The Journal of Legal History is a refereed journal. The refereeing process is anonymous and double blind. To assist anonymous refereeing, authors are asked so far as possible to avoid self-referencing.
Articles submitted to the Journal of Legal History should be original contributions which are not under consideration for any other publication at the same time; submission will be taken as a representation that this is so. If another version of the article is under consideration by another publication, or has been, or will be, published elsewhere, authors should clearly indicate this at the time of submission.
Articles should be submitted as an e-mail attachment using a standard word-processing package (please contact the editor if there is any difficulty over this). All articles should be double-spaced and with ample margins. All pages (including those containing only diagrams and tables) should be numbered consecutively. There is no standard length for articles but 8000?2,000 words (including footnotes) is a useful target. Articles should begin with an abstract of around 100 words setting out their main arguments and conclusions.
Details of the author's institutional affiliation (if any), full address and other contact information (including, if possible, an e-mail address) should be included on a separate cover sheet. Any acknowledgements should be included on the cover sheet, as should a note of the number of words in the article (stating separately, if possible, the number of words in the text and the number of words in the footnotes). It is assumed that authors will retain copies of their work.
All diagrams, charts and graphs should be referred to as figures and consecutively numbered. Tables should be kept to a minimum and should contain only essential data. Each figure and table should be given an arabic numeral, followed by a heading, and be referred to in the text. Figures and captions should be presented on separate sheets, their place in the text being indicated.
Diagrams or maps should be prepared in black and white. Tints should be avoided, use open patterns instead.
It is the author's responsibility to ensure that where copyright materials are included within an article the permission of the copyright holder for publication, in both print and electronic formats, has been obtained. Confirmation of this should be included with the final submission.
Free article access. Corresponding authors can receive 50 free reprints, free online access to their article through our website (<http://www.informaworld.com>) and a complimentary copy of the issue containing their article. Complimentary reprints are available through Rightslink?when proofs are received. If you have any queries, please contact our reprints department at reprints@tandf.co.uk.
Copyright. It is a condition of publication that authors assign copyright or license the publication rights in articles, including abstracts, to Taylor & Francis. This enables us to ensure full copyright protection and to disseminate the article, and of course the Journal, to the widest possible readership in print and electronic formats as appropriate. Authors may, of course, use the article elsewhere after publication without prior permission from Taylor & Francis, provided that acknowledgment is given to the Journal as the original source of publication, and that Taylor & Francis is notified so that our records show that its use is properly authorised. Authors retain a number of other rights under the Taylor & Francis rights policies documents. These policies are referred to at <http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/authorrights.pdf> for full details. Authors are themselves responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyright material from other sources.

However, Taylor & Francis and its agents and licensors make no representations or warranties whatsoever as to the accuracy, completeness or suitability for any purpose of the Content and disclaim all such representations and warranties whether express or implied to the maximum extent permitted by law.

STYLE
Authors are asked to take particular care to ensure that their manuscripts conform to the Journal's style.
Sub-headings. Two levels are available:
1. Centred, in capitals. May be listed by upper-case roman numerals (I, II, III? followed by a full point, or may consist of upper-case roman numerals only (without a full point).
2. Flush left, in italics, with minimum capitalisation. May be listed by arabic numerals followed by a full point.
Paragraphs begin flush left after subheadings. Otherwise paragraphs are indented, with no extra space between them.
Quotations of more than c. 60 words (or shorter quotations consisting of more than one paragraph) should be indented and set off from the text without quotation marks. Other quotations should appear within the text in single quotation marks (double quotation marks within single). Substantial quotations in languages other than English should normally be given in English in a footnote. Authors are asked to take particular care to ensure the accuracy of quotations.
Punctuation. Full points should be outside closing quotation marks except where the quotation consists of a grammatically complete sentence beginning with a capital letter. Other punctuation marks should be outside closing quotation marks except where they belong only to the quotation. Do not insert double spaces after full points at the ends of sentences.
Initial capitals should be kept to a minimum. Titles of offices take initial capitals only where used before an office-holder's name. For legislation, note 'Act' with initial capital even in non-specific references, but 'bill' with lower case initial except in the names of bills.
Abbreviations should be used with care, and avoided if there is a risk of misunderstanding or confusion. No points should be used in abbreviations consisting of capitals (e.g. UK, USA, LJ, QC, MP), or in contractions (e.g. Dr, Ltd) (but note no. (number) with full point). Full points should be used in other abbreviations, including plural forms of abbreviations taking a full point in the singular (e.g. Co., vol., vols., col.). Use per cent (without full point) not % (except in tables, or where frequently repeated). Use a full point after each letter in lower case abbreviations of phrases consisting of more than one word (e.g., i.e.). Abbreviate ‘section' to ‘s.' only following the title of an Act or in parentheses. Where an abbreviation is used at the beginning of a footnote the initial letter should be capitalised.
Dates in running prose, whether in the text or in footnotes, should be in the form 4 February 1536 (but names of months exceeding five letters should be abbreviated in references in notes). Use ?660s' and ?945?8'. Where necessary indicate whether the year is taken to begin on 1 January or on 25 March.
Numerals below 100 (and all numerals beginning sentences) should be spelt out. Numerals of fewer than five digits appear without a comma (e.g. 1234; 56,789).
Spelling. Except in quotations, British spelling should be used.
Italics are used for case names, and for words in languages other than English except those in common use (e.g. bona fide, de facto, habeas corpus). Italics are not used for common Latin abbreviations (e.g., i.e., ibid., cf.), but note c. (circa) in italic.
Footnotes should be numbered consecutively through the article, with a superscript arabic numeral corresponding to the relevant footnote. Note indicators are placed outside closing quotation marks and parentheses (unless relating only to text within parentheses), and after other punctuation marks. Footnote indicators attached to sub-headings, or in the abstract, should be avoided. Footnotes should not be separated by line spaces. Cross-references should be to note numbers and, where appropriate, accompanying text, not to page numbers. Use ‘above' and ‘below' in English. Notes cannot be accommodated in book reviews; references should be included within the text of the review.
REFERENCES
Authors are asked to take particular care to ensure that references are accurate and complete.
In stating a range of page or other reference numbers, numerals of three figures or fewer should not be elided (e.g. 245?54; 1400?5). Page numbers are given without p. or pp. unless confusion is likely, but all other means of reference should be indicated (e.g. para., col.).
Books should appear with full bibliographical details, including place of publication (but not the publisher's name) in the first reference only, and thereafter in a short form, which should include an element of the title, e.g.:
Sir Frederick Pollock and Frederic William Maitland, The History of English Law before the Time of Edward I, 2 vols., 2nd ed., Cambridge, 1898, repr. 1968, vol.1, 200?01; thereafter Pollock and Maitland, History of English Law, vol.2, 45; W.W. Buckland, A Textbook of Roman Law, 3rd ed. rev. by Peter Stein, Cambridge, 1963, 501; thereafter Buckland, Textbook, 500?01.

Sub-titles of books should be separated from titles by a colon, and take the capitalisation of normal prose.
Authors' names should be given in the form in which they appear on the title page.
Where possible, names of places of publication should be given in English form (Vienna not Wien). Where there is risk of confusion, place names in the USA should be followed by the appropriate state abbreviation in postal form (e.g. Cambridge, MA).
Ibid. may be used instead of a short form reference where the relevant full or short form reference appears in the same, or the immediately preceding, note and there is no danger of confusion. Do not use idem or eadem (or abbreviated forms) in place of an author's name.
Articles in books and periodicals should appear with bibliographical details in the first reference only, and thereafter in a short form, which should include an element of the title, e.g.:

Bush and Alain Wijffels, eds., Learning the Law: the teaching and transmission of law in England, 1150-1900, London, 1999, 383, at 385; thereafter Cocks, ‘Lectures of Sir Henry Maine', 385; Raphael Sealey, ‘On Lawful Concubinage in Athens', 3 Classical Antiquity (1984), 111, at 124; L.S.

And thereafter: Sealey, ‘Lawful Concubinage', 125; Bristow, ‘Legal Restrictions', 264; Shammas, ‘English Inheritance Law', 147-149.
Where periodicals do not use volume numbers, the year should appear before the name of the periodical in square brackets. Where pagination of numbers within a volume of a periodical commences at 1 in each issue, indicate the relevant issue number by means of a roman numeral separated from the volume number by a comma.
Authors' names should be given in the form in which they appear in the article.
Ibid. may be used instead of a short form reference as indicated above. Do not use idem or eadem (or abbreviated forms) in place of an author's name.
Material in electronic format. Web-siteaddresses should be given in full (including the relevant protocol: http, ftp, etc.) and enclosed in angle brackets. The date on which the site was last accessed should be included, e.g. < http://www.informaworld.com> accessed 4 Feb. 2006. Material in CD-ROM format should be indicated by the addition of [CD-ROM].
