All reviews are read by the Editor and Associate Editor. All reviewers will receive proofs with feedback.

Information on the journal's editorial norms can be found on the journal's website: www.ibiblio.org/annali


PUBLICATION DEADLINE: Colleagues who have accepted to review books should submit their reviews as soon as possible and before the next deadline (June 30, 2018) for their review to appear in the 2018 issue.

In all your correspondence with the Editor, please provide 
your e-mail address, complete name, academic affiliation, and
the complete address where you wish to receive the book to be reviewed.

As of the 2009 issue, Annali lists in the annual volume all the reviews, including titles of books and names of reviewers, and will paginate all the reviews as they would appear in print, with consecutive page numbers. The reviews, however, will appear only online, where the entire section of reviews (Bookshelf) is already available as of 1998.
