Inside the paper, offer parenthetical citations (just author and page) not only for direct quotations, but also for summarized and paraphrased material from sources. For example, Brontë's friend and biographer claims that Maria Brontë lay sick throughout the last seven months of her life (Gaskell 42). Note proper punctuation in citing (no comma, no pg., no pgs, nothing but a space between author and page!). Note also proper punctuation in quoting directly and that we speak of events in literature and film in the present tense: "Art allows Brontë to penetrate her psyche to a depth which not even her dreamlife made manifest" (Keefe 120). Interested readers can then easily retrieve full bibliographic information by referring to your alphabetized list of works at the end of the paper. The following list shows correct format for books, articles, television shows, films, primary sources contained inside edited works, and mostly actual resources for various types of literary research.
