Formatting
Please do not introduce any codes or formatting commands for full justification,
page numbering, headers or footers, etc. All the Goethe Yearbook
is interested in is accurate text, italics, tabs, paragraph beginnings,
marking of block and verse quotations. Do not enter page breaks or section
breaks.
Notes
The Goethe Yearbook uses endnotes only, no footnotes. All bibliographical
information should be contained in the endnotes since the Yearbook
does not use a "Works Cited" or "Works Consulted."
Bibliographic Information
Follow Chicago Style Manual rules. With book citations where
you have place and publisher information in parentheses, there is no
comma before the page number:
Black
Bread—White Bread (Columbia, SC: Camden House, 1988) 200.
With articles there is a colon after parenthesis and before page number:
MLA
90 (1990): 1-30.
If there are a lot of notes that just give page references, move them
into the text in parentheses.
Instead of repeating bibliographical information in subsequent notes,
use short forms of reference: Saine 100 (no comma), or, if multiple
works of the author are cited, Saine, Bread, 100. If there are
a lot of notes between the first reference and a subsequent reference,
then you can say Saine (n. 5) 100. This kind of reference can also conveniently
be moved into the text if it helps reduce the number of notes.
Quoting Goethe (and Schiller)
The Goethe Yearbook expects authors to quote from reliable Goethe
editions and to use the following abbreviations: WA (Weimarer Ausgabe),
BA (Berliner Ausgabe), FA (Frankfurter Ausgabe), MA (Münchner
Ausgabe), GA (Gedenkausgabe), HA (Hamburger Ausgabe). Although the HA
is listed, the Yearbook would prefer that this edition be avoided.
Editions such as the Jubiläumsausgabe and the Propyläenausgabe
are not as readily available as the others, so they should preferably
not be cited. Standard editions of other Goethezeit authors should also
be cited using abbreviations, e.g., NA for the Schiller Nationalausgabe.
If it is possible to quote accurately without reference to any particular
edition, please do so: citing longer poems, verse plays, Faust,
etc., by line number, and correspondence (including the Goethe-Schiller
correspondence), diaries, conversations (including Eckermann's Gespräche
mit Goethe), etc. by dates makes it possible for readers to consult
practically any edition without undue difficulty.
Word-Processing Software
Submissions in Word are preferred, although WordPerfect files are also
acceptable. If you are a Mac user, please save your file in Word
format and arrange to send the file to the editor as an attachment.
