Call for Papers:

Requirements for the Arrangement and Design of the Summaries:

The summary of your paper is to be sent via www.lomonosov-msu.ru/~smu  from 1st of January, till 25th of February, 2011 (use our electronic registration system). It is the only way of sending your summary. Otherwise arranged summaries are not to be registered.

1. Size -  no more than 6,000 characters (including spaces). Statistics should be checked through "service - statistics,"; otherwise you'll receive an approximate result.  Any theses that exceed the required size will be automatically rejected. The upper and the lower margins of a page should be 2cm, the left and the right ones - 2.5cm.

2. Font:  Use only Times New Roman. For the Greek language, use the panel 'Symbols' in this font, for the Old Russian letters use Lucida Sans Unicode or Palatino Linotype fonts that include yat, theta and yuses. In the comments you should add 'the examples are given in a simplified orthography'. Font size should be 12, single spaced,  proper alignment: Initial margin: 1.25 cm. The beginning of a paragraph should not be done by tabulating (using Tab key) or utilizing the space bar. Use the panel 'For-mat - paragraph - standoff: first line - 1.25cm.'

3. Any footnotes are inappropriate. The references should be formed by square brackets when referring to literature. Included in square brackets should be the name of the author, the publication year (if there are several texts by the same author) and the page numbers of the quoted texts. For example, two works by Ivanov in the years 2000 and 2002 are used in a thesis. The reference to the first work should be arranged this way: [Ivanov 2000: 51]; the second - [Ivanov 2002: 151]. If there is one work by Petrov used in the thesis, it should be arranged this way: [Petrov: 50]. Reference variations: [Petrov, Ivanov: 67-68], [Same: 69].

4. The works (no more than 5) used for your thesis should be listed at the end of the text under the heading: 'Literature'. You should make reference only to the quoted works. The works that you have read or are just important scientific articles should not be listed. All the titles should be arranged as follows: Petrov V.V. A Great and Profound work. M., 1999. Ivanov V.V. A greater and more profound work. Paris, 2000. Petrov V.V., Ivanov V.V. How we wrote our great works // Gardening Bulletin. 2001. ? 5. P.67-68. Ivanov V.V. Complete works in 13 volumes. SPb., 2002. T.8.   Only Moscow (M.), Leningrad (L.) and St. Petersburg (SPb.) are abbreviated. Page numbers for individual articles are to be given in the Bibliography. The name of the publishing house and the number of pages are not to be given. Punctuation marks, spaces and capital/lower-case letters are crucially important. References to internet resources are to be registered in a simplified way: Gramota.ru: http://www.gramota.ru/ The more comprehensive list of requirements for the design and the patterns of Bibliography can be found at the site of the Young Researchers' Society: www.philol.msu.ru/~smu.
5. The summary must contain the following imprint in lower-case letters (no Caps Lock, please!):

-A new line, centrally aligned: the title of the work;
-A new line, centrally aligned: your surname (is to be the first!) and name;
-A new line, centrally aligned: your current status (student/post-graduate/research worker, etc.) and academic degree;
-At the same line - the full name of your university/college, then the city and the state. For example,                               

My First, but still Outstanding Work
Ivanova Maria Vasiljevna
A student of The Paris Gardening College, Paris, France

No full stops at the end of the line, please! Anonymous works will be rejected without any consideration.
