1. HISTORY OF THE JOURNAL
Archivo Teológico Granadino (ATG) is a scientific journal created in 1938 by the Faculty of Theology of Granada and started by the Jesuit theologian José Antonio de Aldama Pruaño. ATG is a Yearbook of the History of Modern Theology that, as an organ of this Faculty, publishes studies on Theology, especially of the post-Tridentine period.
As stated in the first issue, ATG "fits all the branches to which modern theological research extends", although there has always been a preferential interest in post-Tridentine scholasticism, vitally linked to Spain. At that time, people went to Alcalá de Henares and Salamanca to learn theology, and from both cities the "thinkers of deep reflection" renewed access to divine wisdom, its foundation and its announcement were distributed throughout the lands. In the first modernity, it was the thought sought and proposed from the Iberian universities - those mentioned above, and also those of Coimbra or Évora - that opened new and unexpected possibilities for dialogue with the knowledge of that time throughout the world. ATG was born from "the need to promote historical studies" on the theology of all that time and continues to promote them since 1400, the years of the end of the late medieval ecclesiological crisis and the boom, reinforced after the Council of Constance, of conciliarism, until 1900, that is, the time immediately after the first Vatican council and the crisis of the so-called theological modernism; that is, from one council to another, from one period of strong transition and theological renewal to another.
From 1952 to 1979 ATG was published in co-edition with the Francisco Suárez Institute (Raimundo Lulio Board of Trustees) of the Higher Council for Scientific Research (CSIC).
In the ATG presentation in 1938 it was stressed that the period of post-Tridentine scholasticism had only just begun to be studied as it deserved, "with a greater appreciation of serious speculation on the more modern positive foundations", and added that "to concentrate on it our efforts” would have a beneficial influence on modern theological science. From the beginning ATG had two sections: one devoted to historical and doctrinal research, another for editing unpublished texts, sometimes for reproduction, verified and contrasted, of documents that are difficult to access in their original language. As a complement to both sections and as a service to researchers in the History of Modern Theology, in 1939 ATG began to publish a bibliographic section on historical-theological questions. The consultation and study of the published collection confirms the value of that first claim and work program enunciated in 1938, which has been maintained for eighty years following a similar structure: studies, manuscripts and bibliography. That is his strength and his lasting contribution to intellectual work. There are indexes for the first two periods, of twenty-five years each: from 1938 to 1962, prepared by Cándido Pozo and collaborators, and from 1963 to 1985, prepared by Antonio Navas. Consulting them allows access to a first-rate documentary and scientific set due to its specialized nature and the originality of the sources. On the other hand, the most current forms of access to information have allowed, little by little, the complete numbers from 2004, and the summaries from 1938 to the present (2017), were available electronically. It is our purpose to facilitate free electronic access to previous years until the collection is completed. ATG is the fruit of people who have dedicated part of their lives with courage to take care of this journal: the directors, the editorial secretaries and the advisors and collaborators of the same. Making their names known is the way to pay tribute to their work. Although in the journal as such there is hardly any allusion from time to time, using the internal annual publications of the Faculty of Theology, we have been able to reconstruct the identities of the intellectual community that has been behind ATG.
Until 1945, no name appeared as the director of ATG, possibly because its initiator José Antonio de Aldama, was in turn rector of the Colegio Máximo del Sagrado Corazón, which since December 3, 1939 has been the Faculty of Theology. From the autumn of 1945 his name appeared as director of the journal, until 1960, although he stated that he was a professor at the Pontifical University of Salamanca from 1952 to 1960. This first 22-year period (1938-1960) was followed by that of the second director, Augusto Segovia, who had been deputy director since the autumn of 1957. His direction began in the autumn of 1959 and ended when he died in the summer of 1993. In 1949 he had joined as secretary, who was also the secretary of the Faculty , Manuel Ramírez, remaining until 1964, with the help of Andrés Cabello since 1955.
The most relevant change, the incorporation of directors, occurred in 1959 with the beginning of the leadership of ATG by Augusto Segovia. These are their names and dates of reference as directors: Eduardo Moore (1959-1974), Cándido Pozo (1959-1970), Estanislao Olivares (1959-1965), Ricardo Franco (1960-1965) and Manuel Sotomayor (1963-1972). After finishing the service of Manuel Ramírez as editorial secretary, Estanislao Olivares (1964-1973) and Eduardo Moore (1974-1993) went on to carry out this task.
In 1990 José Ignacio Terry joined as a collaborator, who together with Eduardo Moore carried out a remarkable work in manuscript editing, among others the Jesuit Diego Ruiz de Montoya. In 1993 Eduardo Moore became director until 1995. He was replaced as director by Estanislao Olivares (1995-2003) who was followed by Diego M. Molina (2003-2005), Antonio M. Navas (2005-2016), Pablo Ruíz Lozano (2016-2017) and Josep M. Margenat (2017-2019). Since July 2019, Miguel Córdoba has assumed the editorial direction of the journal.
The journal has been progressively renewed. In 2016, the abstracts and keywords of all articles were entered, in Spanish and English. Since 2017, we want to offer the immediate dissemination of all content in the academic network, which allows expediting the pertinent consultations. In this same year, some changes are incorporated that, without altering the first purpose, aim to improve or broaden the dissemination and academic contrast of our journal.
The rules for the publication of originals, the criteria and peer evaluation processes of the originals received and everything that affects transparency as a scientific publication, as well as the names of the evaluators of the originals received, the number of these and of the eventually rejected or subject to revision and improvement, they will be published from 2018.
For all the above, ATG naturally and faithfully endorses some of the inspiring lines proposed by the Holy Father Francis in the Apostolic Constitution Veritatis Gaudium (8-XII-2017): we want to continue with the demanding task for theology, of transmitting the living river of Tradition, of a Gospel that is incarnated in an ever new way and accompanies difficult transitions. In them, theological research, as stated in the Apostolic Constitution Sapientia christiana (1979), is a fundamental duty. Accordingly, ATG intends to contribute to rigorously substantiate the new paradigms of thought and the quality of the specific scientific research of theological studies at the height of the mission lived with risk and fidelity on the border (Veritatis Gaudium, nn. 4 and 5 and Sapientia christiana, proem III).

7. ANTI-PLAGIARISM POLICY
To ensure an anti-plagiarism policy on manuscripts, the journal uses the Turnitin tool. The document will go through this tool first before the peer review begins.
Archivo Teológico Granadino will acknowledge receipt of the originals sent by the authors.
USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)
The Editor is responsible for ensuring that the editing, authoring and peer review processes leading to publication incorporate good practice and ethical, accountable and transparent behaviour by all parties involved. This includes the use of AI during the editing process.
The editing and authoring processes of Scripta Theologica will never rely on AI, the use of which will be restricted to being a support tool to make these processes faster or more efficient. The Editor will ensure that authors, peer reviewers and Editorial Board members are adequately informed about their use of AI. Reviewers may not resort to the use of AI to evaluate manuscripts (Vid. infra).
Warning: in none of the editing, authoring and peer review processes, manuscripts received for evaluation may be uploaded (in whole or in part) into an AI application, as their content could potentially become part of the training data. Confidential information would be shared and the authors' intellectual property rights would be infringed.
PEER EVALUATION PROCESS
The Editorial Board may reject an article, without the need to proceed to its evaluation, when it considers that it does not adapt to the standards, both formal and content, or does not fit the editorial line of the publication.
After this preliminary analysis, all articles will be submitted to an review process according to the “peer” and “double blind” system, resorting to a third party if necessary. The reviewers of the journal Archivo Teológico Granadino are reputed experts in their field of knowledge and carry out a careful review of the articles based exclusively on the relevance, originality, quality and pertinence of the work presented. The anonymity of both the author and the reviewers will be maintained. The list of reviewers who have collaborated with the journal in the publication of the last issue will be published. As it is an annual journal, the list of reviewers will be the last four years.
Authors will be informed of the definitive acceptance or rejection of the article.
Each published article will indicate the dates of receipt and approval of the article.
