ABOUT THE STYLE OF CITING

(MLA)

Beginning with the first issue of 2018, we take as a basis the MLA style for processing bibliographic data. However, instead of the alphabetical list of literature, we continue to use the order of quoting sources in the text (ORDINAL CITATION). Below the rules and examples for REFERENCES are given.

 For full information on this style, see The Chicago Manual of Style

(16th edn)

or http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide.html

IN THE TEXT (PLACEMENT)

Sources are cited in the text, usually in square brackets, by

ordinal number in the text, and a page number. Full details are given in the Reference list (under the heading References). Place the reference at the appropriate point in the text; normally just before punctuation: [1. P. 34].

REFERENCE LIST

GENERAL PRINCIPLES

ORDER

As the source is mentioned in the text. In the Reference list all cited works are given  sequentially, the source sequence number is placed in square brackets:

[1] Ortiz, F. 1995. Cuban Counterpoint: Tobacco and Sugar. Spanish edition. / Transl. into English by Harriet de Onis. New York: Knopf, (1940)1947. Reprint: Durham, NC, and London: Duke University Press Books, USA.

IMPORTANT:

Please, use the form of the author name as it appears on the title page or head of an article. Typically, the author's name is given in full: Ortiz, Fernando; Kellman, Stephen, etc., but you may also use initials: Ortiz, F.; Kellman, S. Choose only one variant of spelling a name, and use it in the list of References. We kindly ask you not to mix these two types.

PUNCTUATION

Headline-style capitalization is used. In headline style, all major words (nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs) are capitalized. For non-English titles, use sentence-style

capitalization.
