Pharos Submissions
Submission Guidelines
We aim to represent as broad a spectrum of article styles as philosophical interests, and so we welcome anything from a brief opinion piece to a more lengthy discussion on an extensive debate. While we proofread all submissions, we do not follow strict quality standards, and submissions are, by their nature, semi-formal. All articles published are a reflection of what their author considers a good philosophical argument, not the editors.
If you wish for your piece to be published anonymously, please request this in the submission email. In the interests of promoting a non-judgemental atmosphere for people to explore philosophical topics the editorial team takes a dim view of personal attacks, otherwise, we encourage people to interact with the articles as much as possible.
After you submit your work, if you wish to have it removed from the webpage, please email us. However, if your work is published in our print edition, we will not be able to remove it; we will inform you if we plan to publish your work in our print edition.
Word count
The length of submissions is naturally at the author's discretion, but should not exceed 2,500 words.
Referencing
Journal style articles should be referenced (if referencing is necessary) in Harvard style.
Formatting
Submissions themselves should be in .docx or .pdf format, or embedded into the email.
