L’Atalante. Revista de estudios cinematográficos accepts original and unpublished manuscripts about both film theory and practice. The articles will preferably be innovative and groundbreaking in topic and methodolody.

Some matters to be considered:

• Only unpublished work will be accepted, it must also follow the journal’s style guidelines and fit the standards and rigour expected from an academic journal.
• The originality of the topic will be valued, especially if it has already been issued in the journal. The repetition of subjects and themes may be a reason to dismiss a manuscript. The contents of previous issues can be consulted in our webpage.
• The Executive Editorial Board will submit the articles to a process of external peer-evaluation, which will respect both the authors’ and evaluators’ anonymity (peer review system) in order to prevent potential bias. If the number of proposals received is too high, the Executive Editorial Board will first select the articles that will then be peer-reviewed, dismissing those considered as less adequate. If the initial conditions of originality and style are not fulfilled, the essay will be dismissed without a prior external consultation.
• The acceptance of a manuscript will be communicated to the author within the following six months.
• The manuscripts (whose length must be between 4000 and 45000 words) must be sent through the journal webpage (OJS), saved only in Rich Text Format (.rtf) and using the provided text template. The author’s statement (.pdf) and the images (.psd, .png, .jpg, .tiff) must be attached as complementary files. The detailed submissions guidelines and process can be found in our webpage. Those manuscripts which do not comply with these rules will be dismissed.
• If it is decided that the manuscript is to be published in a bilingual issue, the author will cover the costs derived from translation and revision (in some cases, such as students and unemployed scholars who prove their situation, this cost will be zero).
• L’Atalante does not offer any compensation for the published articles.
