  Language:
  Since 2020, the journal supports a full bilingual edition (Greek and English).
  Initially, english-speaking authors may send the article to be rejudged in English. In case the article is accepted for publication, the article is translated to Greek, under the Editorial Board's responsibility, so that it is published in both languages.
  
  Text format:
  Word file, body text in Calibri, 11', single spaced, fully aligned.
  
  The system of bibliographic references (intertexts and end bibliography) should follow the APA7 system.
  
  The texts submitted should be original, according to the format specifications given and not exceed the prescribed number of words, as defined by the Editorial Board.
  
  Files are returned to the authors prior to any judging process, in case the above specifications are not met.
  
  The authors retain copyright but all publishing rights belong to the publisher (Hellenic Theatre/Drama & Education Network).
