Aim and Scope

LIBRI: Journal of Epigraphy, Translation and Review is an international, peer-reviewed and online review journal and does not have any affiliation with any institution or organization. The journal which is prepared by a group of the historians of Ancient History and idealist academics does not look after any interest. It is an open access and non-profit periodical. It may not be sold.

The journal is not the product of an instant enthusiasm or a popular trend. It is a small step in order to compensate the deficiency of the translations of the ancient sources and to increase the quality level of the reviews which are not at the desired level in our country.

LIBRI aims to to identify and disseminate epigraphic materials in ancient Greek and Latin pertaining to the geography of ancient Anatolia and to introduce them to the scientific community. In this manner, newly discovered inscriptions recovered from surveys conducted by academics in various regions of Anatolia and excavations in ancient cities are presented to the scientific community and the public by academics. Articles from other disciplines related to ancient studies cannot be published in our journal, which is distinctive in terms of subject and scope.

While the journal’s primary focus is on epigraphy, its stated objectives, as outlined in its title, encompass two main areas of interest. The first objective is to translate ancient Greek and Latin sources, which are currently lacking in our country and have not yet reached the desired level of accuracy, into our language. Secondly, for academics, students and intellectuals interested in antiquity, the journal aims to publish informative book introductions and reviews by experts on books published in recent years about the Mediterranean Basin and civilisations in our country and in the world, with the aim of creating academic awareness.

In accordance with the objectives of the journal, translations from ancient Greek and Latin are confined to works from the ancient and late antiquity periods. This policy also extends to book reviews and notices.

When reviewing and promoting books published in different disciplines (history, historical geography, archaeology, epigraphy, numismatics, etc.) on the Ancient and Late Antiquity of Anatolia, the preferred period of acceptance is for field-specific books published within the last 1-2 years. However, due to the fact that our journal is limited to the disciplines of Ancient History and Ancient and Late Antiquity, and due to the limited number of original publications and translations in these fields in our country, this period may sometimes be extended.

In this respect, our journal aims to raise awareness and provide social benefits to academics, students and intellectuals interested in antiquity by publishing informative book introductions and reviews by experts on books published in recent years on the Mediterranean and civilisations in our country and the world. At the same time, it aims to contribute to the development of analytical evaluation and dissertation writing skills by encouraging undergraduate students who wish to pursue an academic career or graduate and doctoral students who are new to academic life.

It is important to note that translations and introductions published in our journal should not be regarded as articles. They differ in terms of subject matter, methodology, and perspective, as well as in their scope and purpose. Abstracts and keywords in Turkish or other languages are not provided for each publication due to the specialized nature of the content and the generally accepted standards within the respective fields.

The users can read, freely download, distribute and print the articles in full text, as well as giving link to the articles with reference, without requiring any permission from the publisher or the author(s).

The notices, reviews and translations, process of which are completed is published on the web site of the journal (libridergi.org) within the relevant issue (Volume V: January-December 2019) throughout the year. The issue of the relevant year is completed at the end of the month of December. The authors are responsible for the content of their work.

On such a situation is encountered, the aforesaid author is declared as not to be suited to apply Libri: The Journal of Epigraphy, Translation and Review for publication for 5 years.

(21) Should an article be produced through a thesis, it should certainly be expressed in the first footnote of the article stating through which thesis the said article is produced.

(26) The ideas and conclusions are the personal remarks of the author and cannot be considered as the journal’s arguments.

(27) Book presentations, which are submitted to the editorial committee to be published in the journal should only contain objective assessments of publications (monographies, guides, biographies, catalogues [coins], books with editors, compilations / thematic books, ancient sources, translations of and commentaries on modern literature, etc.) belonging to disciplines, which cover different subjects related to the history of the Prehistoric period and the Late Ancient period and the learning ancillary to these.

(28) Both the works which are being assessed and the presentation articles written by the author in the selection of the subject matter and the book, in book presentations, should possess academic/scientific attributes. Book presentations should be prepared objectively and with simple and easy to understand wording, without adopting a turn of phrase which contains subjective evaluations and comments on the works. Narratives should be fully directly proportional with the content of the book. Presentation articles should be between 2 – 3 pages and should not exceed 4 pages.

(29) The works to be selected in book presentations should be works which have been published in the last 1-2 years.

(30) What is expected in book presentations is a clear assessment by the author rather than an article. Thus, footnotes and end notes should not be used. However, where deemed necessary, the author who has penned the presentation may state the title of the book/article and the relevant page number, in short, in brackets within the sentence (APA citation style).

(31) The reviewer is expected to have read the book or article with a revisionist point of view, defined its problematic, scrutinised and questioned it, put it through the filter of analysis and the review he/she has penned is expected to contain opinions to a degree which will contribute both to the readers and the author of the book/article, in book or article reviews which have been submitted to the editorial committee to be published in the journal. A writer who has peened a review of a book or article may hold the same or opposing opinions as that put forward by the study. However, he/she must evidence each point and inference he/she has set out to readers, with examples. He/She may show the aspects which epitomise the definitions, information, inferences and evaluations set out by the book or article, or any parts where it has fallen short in this respect. However, while doing this, he/she should refer to similar books and studies related to the subject [penned under the same title] and support any opinions he/she has put forward with examples.

(32) The reviewer is expected to analyse the book without resorting to reductionism and cynicism; he/she is not expected to set out his/her own opinions or how the author has constructed and penned the book!

(33) The purpose of the translations we publish in our journal is to bring the ancient Greek and Latin sources, which are the essential reference focus points of studies into the ancient and late ancient periods, into Turkish from their original languages, and present them to the use of the different disciplines interested in antiquity (archaeology, philology, ancient history, epigraphy, numismatics, etc.). It is also an attempt to contribute to an increase in the accumulation of knowledge related to the ancient history, historic geography and archaeology of Anatolia and the Mediterranean Basin. On the other hand, there is also an aim to revive the discipline of philology, which seems to have gone mouldy and been forgotten in our country, which just a handful of idealist academics are endeavouring to perform but which also stands at an extremely important point from a cultural perspective. What is necessary when doing this is to understand and translate the language and literary works of the ancient period, and where necessary to re-interpret / comment on them (both in a linear and thematic manner) through comparisons. The said translations and commentaries can also be published separately, as supplements to the journal, where deemed necessary.
An accessible platform (developing in the long term) for academics and intellectuals, who wish to obtain information concerning the history of the Mediterranean and Black Sea basins and Mesopotamia, specific to Anatolia and the civilisations and cultures, which laid down their roots and developed in these regions, is being created in this way. In other words, the aim is to contribute to making the notion of acquiring universal knowledge based on historic information more widespread.

(34) The translation mission of the Libri Journal is to translate the ancient sources which shed light on the ancient history of Anatolia and the Mediterranean Basin, from their ancient Greek and Latin originals, into Turkish and publish them in both languages. However, the transcriptions of works which have been previously translated into Turkish may not be published in our journal.

(35) Anyone employed in the journal (including the Editor-in-Chief and the editorial team) may not publish anything in the edition of the relevant year.

Enforcement and Executing

Article 17–

(1) This hereby directive come into force after the approval of the owner of the Libri: The Journal of Epigraphy, Translation and Review. It can only be abolished by the decision of the owner of the journal.

(2) The founder of the journal charges editor-in-chief and editorial board in order that the publication process and the running of the journal can be carried out in a smooth and scientific manner.

(3) The journal is not the product of a momentary whim or a trend which has become popular in recent times. It is a small step taken in order to alleviate the lack in the areas of epigraphic publications, translations and accounts, which are not present at the desired levels in our country.

The aim of the journal is to find the epigraphic documents in ancient Greek and Latin related to the geography of Anatolia in ancient times and to present these to the scientific community. The ‘new’ inscriptions, which have been obtained from the surface explorations and excavations in ancient cities by academics in different areas of Anatolia, are presented to the information of the scientific community and the public, by academics in this way. No articles related to other disciplines in connection with research into ancient times may be published in our journal, which is authentic in respect of its subject matter and scope.

The translations brought into our own language from the ancient Greek and Latin in line with the aims of our journal, are restricted to the ancient and late ancient ages. The similar is also true for book reviews and presentations.

Books which have been published within the last 1-2 years are preferred when accepting the reviews and presentations of the books published on different disciplines (history, historical, geography, archaeology, epigraphy, numismatics, etc.) related to the ancient and late ancient periods of Anatolia. However, due to the fact that our journal is restricted to the disciplines of the ancient periods in terms of subject matter and the ancient and late ancient periods in terms of chronology, and the fact that the numbers of the originals and translations published in our country in the said fields is limited, this period of time may, from time to time, become more flexible. In this way, our journal aims to raise awareness by publishing informative book presentations on the books and book reviews penned by experts in the area, which have been published in recent years related to the Mediterranean Basin and its civilisations, both in Turkey and throughout the world, and provide benefit to society. While doing this, we also aim to encourage undergraduate students who desire an academic career or graduate and doctorate students who have just started their academic careers, and contribute to the development of their analytical assessment and thesis writing skills.

A point which should not be overlooked is that the translations, reviews and presentations published in our journal should not be evaluated as articles. Their subject matters, methods and points of view are different and their boundaries and objectives are also separate. Due to their scope and the generally accepted content of the areas they are tied to, no publications will contain any substance in Turkish or abstracts and key words in any foreign languages.

(4) User will be free to read the full text of the works in the journal, download, distribute and print them and provide links to the publications by citing them as references, without the need to obtain permission from the publisher and author(s)..

(5) All responsibility and the management of the journal is performed by editor-in-chief on behalf of the owner of the journal.

(6) The journal is a scientific and open access publication. Administration and the running of the publication process is under the responsibility of the editor-in-chief.

Article 18–
