Philologia applies the double-blind peer review procedure (the evaluation for each article by two independent reviewers). Reviewing is anonymous: the authors' and reviewers' identities are unknown.

Reviewers are selected by the Editorial Board from the journal's database.

Designated reviewers are sent the article and the Peer review form by e-mail.

The review criteria cover the following aspects: the relevance of the topic, inclusion in the profile of the journal, appropriate title, relevance of the abstract, observing the inherent structure of a scientific article, originality and quality of the paper, rigour of arguments, conclusions, citations, bibliographic references, in compliance with editing requirements.

The reviewer provides, in a timely manner, the evaluation of the received article. The result of the peer review will be sent to the publisher and will indicate the degree of acceptance: 1) the article is recommended for publishing; 2) the article will be approved for publishing after some modifications; 3) the article is not recommended for publishing. The article will be accepted if both reviews are positive or when one review is positive and another recommends the article for publication after some modifications. In this case, the reviews, including the necessary recommendations, will be sent to the author. The authors will comply with the opinion of the reviewers. If an article is proposed for publication by one reviewer, but is rejected by the other, the article is not accepted for publication.
