Manuscripts

        Since 1928 the Bulletin of the Institute of History and Philology (BIHP) has been issued quarterly under the auspices of the Institute of History and Philology, Academia Sinica, in the Republic of China. BIHP welcomes the submission of manuscripts dealing with history, philology, archaeology, anthropology, and paleography. Manuscripts must not exceed 10,000 words (roughly 30 pages of typed text). Guidelines for footnotes and references are available upon request. We cannot accept manuscripts that do not follow these guidelines. Please specify the following on the manuscript: author’s English and Chinese names, affiliated institution, position, and address. It is not necessary to include a computer file with the first submission. After a manuscript has been accepted, however, its author is required to submit not only a hard copy, but also a computer file. The preferred editing program is a recent version of Word. In any case, please note the brand of software used and its version number. Please avoid fancy formatting of the text. To cite online materials, it is required to include the URL, the name of the database, and an access date. The author has sole responsibility for obtaining permission from publishers to use copyrighted materials, such as illustrations, charts, or lengthy quotations. Upon publication, authors will receive fifty offprints of their articles, one copy of the entire issue concerned, plus one copy of the four issues for that year, free of charge. Rejected manuscripts are not be returned to the author.
