Author Guidelines
1. Only original texts will be accepted for publication. Submitted manuscripts may not have been
published before, nor have been intended in part or in entirety for publication elsewhere.
Fragments of texts by other authors as well as figures or tables borrowed from other papers must
be accompanied by source notations of the borrowed fragments or data, otherwise such
borrowing shall constitute a breach of copyright law resulting in legal consequences pursuant to
Act of 4 February 1994 – Copyright law (unified text O.J. 2019, item 1231 as amended, article
34) which applies to borrowings from Polish as well as foreign publications. Author/authors bear
full responsibility for all data presented in the published paper. This includes instances of
ghostwriting (when a coauthor, undisclosed, has significantly contributed to the publication) as
well as honorary authorship (where the co-author’s contribution is negligent or non-existent, but
such person is nevertheless named as co-author). Quotations, bibliographical data and the like are
not subject to editorial revision.
2. The whole manuscript should be no shorter than 15 but must not exceed 30 pages (30 000–
60 000 characters) – summary included; commentaries, opinions and polemics, as well as
summaries of judgments and glosses must not exceed 20 pages (40 000 characters); reports and
notes must be no longer than 5 pages (10 000 characters).

author/s) should be between 1800–2000 characters including spaces, followed by 3 to 5
keywords, also in the language of submission and in English). The author(s) is solely responsible
for the correctness of the summary and selection of the keywords;
