What will make my submission stand out?

Whilst the journal publishes a large spectrum of articles, all pieces have the same specific aim of promoting meaningful and involved engagement with the challenges of our time. With this in mind, successful articles should seek to examine a neglected or unusual topic or idea, examine an established topic or idea from a unique angle or provide a comprehensive discussion and overview of an accepted topic or idea.

​

Please see the following document for more information about our Style Guide:

If you have any further questions about the submission process please email the Editor-in-Chief, Muireann Carton, at editor.spr.trinity@gmail.com.

We look forward to receiving your submissions.
