Aims and scope

Analecta: Studies and Materials for the History of Science is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, supported and published biannually by the Institute for the History of Science, Polish Academy of Sciences since 1992. Drawing on the rich tradition of the publishing series Studia i Materiały z Dziejów Nauki Polskiej [Studies and Materials from the History of Polish Science], initiated in 1953 by Bogdan Suchodolski, the journal covers all areas of the history of science. It features extensive research papers, shorter studies, critical editions of source texts, as well as conference reports and book reviews. Occasionally, Analecta publishes themed issues on topics of particular interest within the history of scientific thought, edited in cooperation with prominent scholars.

The editorial board accepts proposals in Polish and English on a rolling basis. Issues are published at the end of June and at the end of December each year. Editors neither charge fees for accepting articles for publication nor pay fees to authors.

Submissions are evaluated by the editorial board (internal review) and independent experts in the double-blind peer review process which means that the identity of both the author and the reviewer is concealed (external review). Reviewers are requested to disclose any conflict of interest and assess each publication impartially on the basis of eight objective criteria.

In the last ranking of the Polish Ministry of Education and Science (17.07.2023) Analecta: Studies and Materials for the History of Science received 70 points.
