Trismegistos Online Publications

This series, edited by W. Clarysse (K.U.Leuven), M. Depauw (K.U.Leuven), and formerly also the late H. J. Thissen (Universität zu Köln), aims to provide freely downloadable pdf-documents with scholarly tools based upon or providing links to the Trismegistos database.

Contributors can send in manuscripts in Word format to Mark Depauw. The editors will decide whether the manuscript fits in the series and can be accepted for reviewing. An anonymous version of the manuscript will then be sent to two or more peers for evaluation. On the basis of their report the editors will take a decision whether to publish it in the series or not. Authors will be given the anonymous notes of the reviewers and can be asked to implement changes to their manuscript.

TOP Special Series

The TOP Special Series publishes manuscripts that are more synthetic in nature than the 'standard' series, but still strongly data-oriented by the nature of their subjects. They are closely connected with one of the Trismegistos sections, or even give rise to a separate section themselves (e.g. TOP SS 5 and 6).
