Hungarian Review Style Guide for Authors

Hungarian Review’s British-English house style is based upon the New Oxford Style Manual (2016), including New Hart’s Rules and the New Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors. In addition, the Oxford English Dictionary (OED, 2012) is our reference for spelling.

Notes and References

Bibliographical references should be provided in the form of endnotes, placed in a single sequence at the end of the text, in smaller type (’10). HR specific: no separate list of bibliography should be added at the end of the text; instead, the endnotes should contain all the bibliographical data.

Endnote numbers should be superscript both in the text and in the list of notes at the end of the article. E.g.:

Text:

Not even the best endowed colleges had incomes approaching those of such great Benedictine houses as Westminster or Glastonbury.[1]

a) first reference to the source:
