Author Guidelines

Submission Guidelines

Hon No Mushi - Japanese Multidisciplinary Studies, a publication by the course of Japanese Language and Literature of the Federal University of Amazonas, is a reflexive and questioning forum for the promotion and expansion of the interlocution of ideas and cultures, as well as the convergence of many scientific studies and new findings in the fields of Japanese literature, language, and culture, and language teaching. It welcomes, therefore, many different insights revealed in several forms of scientific expression, becoming a true and legitimate invitation to different submissions from several perspectives.

1. The submission cannot have been previously published or distributed elsewhere;
2. The submission of an original work entails the authorisation of its publication by Hon No Mushi. The submitted article will belong to Hon No Mushi and there will be no financial compensation or payment to its authors regarding copyright;
3. The authors are entirely responsible for the ideas contained in the submitted works;
4. The author will be notified in case there’s any suggested change to the submitted work;
5. The Hon No Mushi journal will be published every six months, and submissions will be accepted at any moment;
6. The submission guidelines are available in the website;
7. The articles must be submitted via the Hon No Mushi website (http://www.periodicos.ufam.edu.br/HonNoMushi) and sent to the following email adress: honnnomushi.revista@gmail.com;
8. The submitted articles will be sent to two peer reviewers. Should one reviewer not approve the article, the editors will send the article to a third reviewer. If two reviewers fail to approve the article, it will not be published;
9. The authors whose articles do not reach the publication stage will be notified.
