Types of Works Eligible for Publication

EDI Press UniMarconi welcomes proposals for the publication of various types of works:

  • Monographs: original studies on a single research topic; they must present original results and have a significant impact in their field.
  • Edited volumes: collections of essays or articles written by different authors on a common theme, introduced by an explanatory text. They are coordinated by one or more editors, who introduce the volume with an explanatory text. It is important to ensure coherence and scientific quality among the various contributions.
  • Textbooks: intended for university teaching.
  • Critical editions: analyze already existing works (historical, philosophical, literary texts, etc.). They are based on comparison between manuscripts, printed versions, and other sources. They must provide rigorous philological analysis, with commentary and annotations.
  • Conference proceedings: collect contributions presented by scholars during an academic conference. They must be clearly structured and accompanied by a preface explaining the context.

Authors interested in submitting a proposal are encouraged to consult the editorial series and Scientific Committees in advance, in order to verify publication objectives and the work’s alignment with editorial guidelines.
