Citation and Notes

No footnotes or endnotes shall be used for mere page references when citing works directly or making broader references. They will only be used for longer commentaries and placed at the end of the text, before the bibliography.


Use parenthetical citations as follows: (O’Toole 2000:30). If the same source is referred to or quoted immediately afterwards simply repeat the page number. If only the page number changes it will suffice to put the new page number within brackets.
 

Short quotations (up to 40 words) will appear in inverted commas within the text, longer ones (more than 40 words) will have no inverted commas and will appear in a separate indented paragraph (1.25 cm; single space). If parts of a citation are omitted, the omission is noted by three full stops enclosed in square brackets […].
