英语论文格式及例文TheEpiphanyinAraby
文献引证
参考文献引用的规范,一般偏重人文学科的使用MLA(theModernLanguageAssociation)规范。
引用文献中具体观点或文字
引用文献中某一具体观点或文字时必须注明该观点或者该段文字出现的页码,没有页码是文献引用不规范的表现。
引用文献现通常采用页内注,例如:
AncientwritersattributedtheinventionofthemonochordtoPythagoras,wholivedinthesixthcenturyBC(Marcuse197).
引用文学作品和经典文献
在引用小说的时候,应标出引文所在的页码。
按MLA的规范,有几种情况括号夹注内不标页码。
在引用剧本时应标出引文的幕、场、行,如:
Inhisfamousadvicetoplayers,Shakespeare’sHamletdefinesthepurposeoftheater,“whoseend,bothatthefirstandnow,wasandis,tohold,as‘twere,themirroruptonature”(3.2.21-23).
这里的括号夹注表示引文来自剧本第三幕第二场的21至23行。
(注意标点的使用。
)
在引用诗歌时应标出引文的节、行,如:
WhenHomer’sOdysseuscomestothehallofCirce,hefindshismen“mild/inhersoftspell,fedonherdrugofevil”(10.209-11).
这里的括号夹注表示引文来自诗歌第10节的209至211行。
对不分节的诗第一次引用时应说明括号里标的是行数,使用“line”,以后的引用则不需再说明。
例如:
第一次引用:
(lines5-8)
以后的引用:
(12-13)
在引用有章节、分册的小说的时候,应标出引文所在的页码、册数、章节,如:
OneofKingsolver’snarrators,teenagerRachel,pusheshervocabularybeyonditslimits.Forexample,RachelcomplainsthatbeingforcedtoliveintheCongowithhermissionaryfamilyis“asheertapestryofjustice”becauseherchancesoffindingaboyfriendare“dullandvoid”(117;bk.2,ch.10).

(注意标点和缩略语的使用。
)
