Instructions for Paper Submission

La Barca de Teseo accepts original papers from authors of all nationalities, in accordance with the journal's normative criteria and editorial line. Papers are accepted in Spanish and English in two annual calls for papers. The Editorial Board will consider the acceptance of pre-print submissions deposited in repositories that have not been previously evaluated.

Steps for Paper Submission

• Registration on the Platform: Authors must register on the journal's website.
• Document Preparation: Once registered, the author must attach two versions of the paper to the OJS system: one with identification and one anonymous for double-blind peer review.
• Author Metadata: Author metadata will be entered into the OJS system, including name, email address, country, ORCID, affiliation, and a brief biographical sketch.
• Copyright Transfer Form: This document certifies that the paper is original and unpublished and that it has been submitted exclusively to La Barca de Teseo for publication.

General Considerations

• Originality: The paper must be original and not have been submitted or subjected to review in other scientific journals.
• Maximum Number of Authors: A maximum of three authors are allowed per paper. In the case of more authors, the Editorial Board will evaluate the situation.
