STYLE SHEET (IN ENGLISH)

1. MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION

Authors or Editors in charge of manuscript submission:

• Please enclose a short notice to let us know which kind of word
processing program you used.
• Please use standard word processors only (Word for Windows or Mac,
WordPerfect, Open Office etc.). All manuscript files must be stored in
the same file format.
• If you save chapters or contributions in separate files, please assign
each file an easy-to-identify file name (e.g. chap1authorname.doc).
• Please number the pages consecutively throughout the manuscript
(including the first page) – do not start over with each new
chapter/contribution.
• Please include a comprehensive Table of Contents.

2. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARING MANUSCRIPTS

For more detailed instructions, please consult the Chicago Manual of Style.

• The most important rule is consistency. Please make sure always to

use the same style/method etc.
• The whole text, including captions, should run flush left.
• No syllabification.
• To indent text, please set tabs, not spaces.
• To emphasized words, use italics only, no bold fonts, e.g. for titles or
special terms.
• To place and administer footnotes, use the word processing program
only.
• Footnotes should be counted by chapter.

Instructions for tables and figures

• Please store tables and figures in separate files (each table or figure in
a file of its own). Files should be named so that they can be easily
identified, e.g. authorname_tab1.doc.
• Tables and figures should be counted within each chapter/contribution
(Table 1/Table 2, etc.; Figure 1, Figure 2, etc.). Sources are given below
the tables/figures.
• To ensure high print quality, please submit files and/or print outs of the
figures for evaluation as early as possible.
• Figures/tables must be printed out on separate pages for reproduction.
Please do not print out tables and figures within the text. One
figure/table per page, please.
• Give a standardized instruction on the very spot where you want to
have tables/figures inserted into the text. Do not forget captions.

use the author-date system: (Author, year, page[s]); e.g. (Müller,
1980b, S. 931-932). To differentiate authors with the same name,
please include initials or first name. All works cited in the text must to
be included in the reference list.

name on the title page followed by “et al.” or “u.a.” (for und andere)
