2 MLA Citations (From a site by William Wade, West Kentucky Community and Technical College) A parenthetical citation is brief so that it does not interrupt the flow of ideas. It directs readers to a works- cited-page entry, where they are given the complete source data. The reason for this is to give the author of the source credit and to five readers the ability to find the exact source that was used and verify the material or gather more information on the topic.

5 Peer Proofreading of RP
When people think of a man, they generally think of “an adult male human being” (“man, n.1”). However, some think they have to “[b]e stupid, be unfeeling, obedient and soldierly, and stop thinking” to be manly (Theroux, par. 2). In parentheses after the quote, put the first word of that source’s works-cited-page entry (usually the author’s last name) and the page number (or “par.” and the paragraph number). See page 6 of the syllabus and pp of our textbook. Works Cited “man, n.1 (and int.).” OED Online, Oxford University Press, March 2016, Entry/ Theroux, Paul. “The Male Myth.” The New York Times, Sunday, Late City Final Edition, 27 Nov. 1983, p LexisNexis Academic, www. lexisnexis.com.db11.linccweb.org/ lnacui2api/api/version1/getDoc Cui?lni=3S8G-HPY Y1KC&csi=270944,270077,11059, 8411&hl=t&hv=t&hnsd=f&hns=t&hgn=t&oc=00240&perma=true. 11:52, 4:22, 7:52

MLA Works Cited Page Peer Proofreading of RP Use both italics and quotation marks if the title of a novel or play is within the title of an article (italics for novel/play, quotation marks for article): Persoon, James. “Shakespeare’s Hamlet.” The Explicator, vol. 55, no. 2, 1997, pp. 70+. Literature Resources from Gale, 2013, search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct =true&db=a9h&AN= &site=ehost-live.
