OBLIGATORIO: PLANTILLA PARA RESEÑAS BIBLIOGRÁFICAS - TEXTOS VIVOS
Open Submissions / Indexed.
Our LIVING TEXTS section aims to register, analyse and disseminate publications of interest due to its validity and affinity with the subject matter of the call for paper launched. Thus, critical commentaries on recently published books and architecture monographs, on reprints of out-of-print titles and on current texts of interest that converge with the editorial line of PpA expressed through the different call for papers will be published.
Modalities:
- At the suggestion of its authors, books related to the subject matter of the call for paper launched for its review.
- Unpublished reviews of publications -reprints of out-of-print titles and on current texts of recognized interest- related to the subject matter of the corresponding call for papers.
Deadlines and documents to be submitted:
The deadlines for both modalities will be the same as those indicated with the open call for paper for the upcoming issue.
People interested in contributing a book authored by him/her/them so that others can review it (modality 1), must provide a maximum of two original printed copies of the book. The first one will be sent to the Editorial Board of PpA to analyse it and approve it within the deadlines established in the call for papers. If the inclusion of the review of the book submitted is approved, the author of the book will directly send the second copy of it to the writer of the review decided by the Editorial Board, according to the contact details provided by the PpA management.
If you participate in the call for papers with the writing of a review of a title corresponding to reprints of out-of-print books or texts of recognized interest (modality 2), these will be sent through the OJS platform. The book reviews that participate in the call for paper will also be analysed by the Editorial Board based on the assessment of those responsible for the LIVING TEXTS section.
The Editorial Board reserves its right to propose titles for this section, referring to convergence criteria with the subject matter of the issue in which they will be published.
