Aim and Scope of the Journal
ΣΧΟΛΗ is the academic journal of the Centre for Ancient Philosophy and the Classical Tradition. The aim of the Centre in general is to encourage the dissemination of Classical scholarship, especially in the fields of Ancient philosophy, the history of sciences, both natural and social, and the arts. For publication we consider submissions dealing with any aspect of Classics, including reviews, commented translations from Greek and Latin, and archive materials which may be of interest for the classical scholarship.
We never charge authors any money.
We accept articles written in English or Russian. If the submission includes Greek, Arabic, or other specialized fonts, the font name should be specified (preferably an Unicode). The author is responsible for a correct use of the language chosen; if not a native speaker him/herself, s/he is strongly encouraged to have the contribution checked by a native speaker.
