SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

LOGIA is happy to receive unsolicited manuscripts. Before submitting an article, please read several issues of LOGIA and/or read the articles that are available online at logia.org to see the subjects we treat and the way we treat them. You may also ask the senior editor about an article that you want to submit, if you are not sure whether it will work for LOGIA. Please understand that a positive response does not guarantee that your article will be published. All manuscripts are subject to peer review and editorial modification.

Please prepare your article in accordance with LOGIA’s Manuscript Preparation/Style Guide (PDF).

All submissions must be accompanied by a 300-word or less abstract of the article.

Manuscripts should be typed in Microsoft Word, single-spaced. Please use only one space after periods and other punctuation. Please use footnotes rather than endnotes. Please use parentheses for references to Bible passages and quotations from the Lutheran Confessions and Luther’s Works. Keep notes short. Provide only pertinent documentation. Long discursive footnotes are discouraged and are subject to editorial revision or removal.

Article Length:

Feature articles (including notes) should be between 18,000 and 28,000 characters (3,000 to 5,000 words). LOGIA does not accept simultaneous submissions or previously published materials, including material published on the author’s own web site.
