1. Acknowledgement of receipt and submission to evaluators

Once the receipt of the original has been acknowledged, its unpublished nature and its compliance with Creneida. Anuario de literaturas hispánicas’s standards will be reviewed. The paper will then be sent to two expert referees.

The reviewers will be members of the International Scientific Committee or completely external to the journal: always independent and selected by the Editorial Board, they will issue a report on whether or not to publish the work (which will be anonymized) and, if necessary, will suggest the appropriate corrections. The review method is “double-blind” (anonymity of the author and reviewers), with the editor of the journal being responsible for establishing contact between the two. If necessary, a third reviewer will be used.

 

3. Results of the review

The outcome of the evaluation process may be:

1. Acceptance of the article
2. Publishable with modifications
3. In-depth review of the work
4. Rejection

The editor’s decision, together with the final evaluation reports and, if submitted, the anonymous word or PDFS files (with in-depth reviews), will be sent to the author via the platform.

Reviews are subject to an internal review system by the Editorial Board, which will accept and decline publication according to the following criteria:

1. If it does not meet the minimum quality standards required for a scientific publication.
2. If it detects lack of objectivity or academic malpractice in the review of the contents and/or methodology of the book.

4. If they are signed by researchers who are authors of a chapter of the collection.
