Author Guidelines
Alpha Omega is a journal issued by the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum that publishes articles, notes, reviews, and announcements by professors and doctoral studentses. The journal dedicates special issues to proceedings of conferences organized, sponsored, or supported by this institution.
The works submitted for publication must adhere to the following length limits:
- Articles and notes: 30,000 characters.
- Book reviews: 10,000 characters.

Articles, by virtue of their relevance in the contemporary academic landscape, their originality, and scientific rigor, will be subjected to a double-blind peer review.
Notes are short articles, synthesis works, or reviews that do not necessarily represent an advancement of the state of the art. Notes also include possible responses from authors to a review published in our journal or debates that a particular article may provoke.
Accepted languages include Italian, English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, and Latin.
The contributions, written in accordance with the Athenaeum’s style guidelines, will be submitted to the Open Journal System. Authors must therefore create a profile, provide the requested information, and upload the file.
