Positioning the references: References may appear either at the right-hand side or at the foot of the screen. Readers can change the position of the references by changing the width of the window. To change the width, either drag the edge of the window or adjust the magnification (Ctrl+ or Ctrl- on PC, Cmd+ or Cmd- on Macintosh).

Reading the references: Use the note numerals to move back and forth between the main text and the references. The links work in both directions. The linked object will move to the top of its frame.

Opening linked files: In recent issues of JSCM, most examples, figures, and tables, along with their captions, open as overlays, covering the text until they are closed. Nevertheless, readers have choices. In most browsers, by right-clicking the hyperlink (PC or Macintosh) or control-clicking it (Macintosh), you can access a menu that will give you the option of opening the linked file (without its caption) in a new tab, or even in a new window that can be resized and moved at will.

Printing JSCM articles: Use the “print” link on the page or your browser’s print function to open a print dialog for the main text and endnotes. To print a linked file (e.g., an example or figure), either use the “print” command on the overlay or open the item in a new tab (see above).

Items appearing in JSCM may be saved and stored in electronic or paper form and may be shared among individuals for all non-commercial purposes. For a summary of the Journal's open-access license, see the footer to the homepage, https://sscm-jscm.org. Commercial redistribution of an item published in JSCM requires prior, written permission from the Editor-in-Chief, and must include the following information:

This item appeared in the Journal of Seventeenth Century Music (https://sscm-jscm.org/) [volume, no. (year)], under a CC BY-NC-ND license, and it is republished here with permission.

Libraries may archive complete issues or selected articles for public access, in electronic or paper form, so long as no access fee is charged. Exceptions to this requirement must be approved in writing by the Editor-in-Chief of JSCM.

Citations of information published in JSCM should include the paragraph number and the URL. The content of an article in JSCM is stable once it is published (although subsequent communications about it are noted and linked at the end of the original article); therefore, the date of access is optional in a citation.

We offer the following as a model:

A Note from the Editor

The articles in this issue of JSCM deal with various aspects of Italian music and its transmission to the German-speaking lands. Federico Schneider approaches a familiar topic, the effect of Giovan Battista Marino’s poetry on Monteverdi’s late madrigals, from a new perspective: Marino’s idiosyncratic engagement with Petrarchan form. Valerio Morucci uncovers a hitherto unknown patronage circle linking Roman musicians to the Imperial court in Vienna as early as 1619. Nieves Pascual León considers a newly recovered autograph manuscript by Wolfgang Caspar Printz, containing adaptations of Italian arias for Printz’s German patron, just back from his Grand Tour. Two of the six book reviews (those by Mary Frandsen and Kimberly Beck Hieb) complement Morucci and Pascual in considering the transmission of Italian music to northern Europe. The other reviews deal with a variety of issues of transmission, textual criticism, performance practice, and patronage in France, Italy, and Germany.

See “Reading JSCM” [now in a pop-up accompanying each article or review—Ed., December 2020] for different ways you might open the examples, figures, and tables, other than the default (usually an overlay, occasionally a separate tab).

As regular readers know, volumes 1–16 of the Journal recently underwent a major technical transformation. That process is now complete. Please do not hesitate to call our attention to any errors we may have overlooked; these could be as small as an inappropriate diacritical mark or missing line break. The footer of every page in those early issues (and every Table of Contents page in more recent issues) includes a “contact us” link.

Finally, we continue to introduce small improvements in the Journal’s website: drop-down tables of contents in the list of issues, an embedded Google search engine, an updated style sheet, and a new document (accessed by a link on the homepage) recognizing the service of past editorial board members.
