Use of Place Names
Use standard English names wherever possible (Prague, Vienna, Cologne, Bucharest), even in the bibliography, regardless of the original bibliographic data. Otherwise, in the main body use the relevant place names at their first mentioning (Kolozsvár/Cluj/Klausenburg, L’viv/Lwów/Lemberg) and then use the most relevant one in a coherent way. Consideration should be given to the use of place names in diverse cultural situations: derogatory or discriminatory terms or terms in poor taste, likely to cause offence should be avoided.
