About the Journal

As a critical journal for the entire field of classical studies, GNOMON fosters links between the various disciplines of classical studies. It thus occupies a special position among the review journals and offers the opportunity to find out about important research and publications in neighbouring fields of one's own discipline. The reviews in GNOMON are aimed at an international audience from all areas of classical studies. The languages of publication in GNOMON are: German, English, French, Italian and Latin.

Guidelines for reviews
Reviews are generally by invitation of the editors only. Please send requests to gnomon@uni-bonn.de
Every review in the GNOMON should aim to give a clear picture of the book's content that is understandable even to those who have not read the book themselves and do not know the problem dealt with from their own experience. The scientific nature of the review will often require criticism of individual aspects of the work under review; however, the merely specific should not predominate and should not be used so much for its own sake as to illustrate the method and result of the book. Everything specific should be presented separately from the generally significant in a clear structure. The GNOMON emphasises a readable, stylistically accurate presentation. Your own productive and further reflections on the subject of the reviewed work are very welcome.
