  Le Cygne subscribes to a policy 
of blind submissions. Each article will be reviewed by two readers from the journal's Advisory Board. The author's name, address, institution, telephone number and e-mail address should be listed on a separate cover sheet. Necessary references to the author's scholarship should be in the third person.

  The maximum length for articles 
(including the endnotes and the bibliography) is 6,000 words.

  Submissions to Le Cygne should be prepared according to the
MLA  Style Manual and Guide to Scholarship Publishing.  
The author is responsible for the accuracy of quotations and citations, which must be carefully verified before submission.

  Criteria for acceptance include: discussion of significant ideas; relevance to contemporary critical discussions; groundbreaking research or new theoretical approaches to ongoing debates.

  Two to three articles are published in each volume 
(except for special issues).

  Normally, the time between submission and publication decision is 6-9 months, and the time between 
publication decision and publication is 12-18 months.

  Final versions of accepted articles must be submitted 
on schedule in hard copy and  diskette format.

  Rejected manuscripts will be returned on request 
(please include return postage).
