My paper:
"Any photograph that alludes to social or political agendas suggests an ideological view which, as argued by Victor Burgin (????), is encouraging the continuation of false consciousness..."
I got picked up on my sloppy referencing before and this is my dissertation now, so I want to get it perfect.
I am referencing this guy Burgin, I read an essay of his in a book called The Camerawork Essays, which was published in 1997. As the title suggests, the book is a collection of essays. What do I put within my text, the year of the book, or the year of the essay? But also, how do I set it out within the bibliography?
Here's the details:
Book:
Jessica Evans. (1997). The Camerawork Essays: Context and Meaning in Photography, London: Rivers Oram Press
Essay:
Victor Burgin (no.3, July 1976) Art, Common Sense and Photography
Cheers! I'm assuming Harvard uses the MLA format. Unless you know where the essay was originally published, I would just cite the essay as you would any work from an anthology. Your entry would look like this (info that should be underlined is in caps, because I can't figure out how to underline in this text box):
Burgin, Victor. "Art, Common Sense and Photography." THE CAMERAWORK ESSAYS: CONTEXT AND MEANING IN PHOTOGRAPHY. Ed. Jessica Evans. London: Rivers Oram Press, 1997. page numbers would go here.
As for citing within the text, you would usually put the author's last name and the specific page number in parentheses (Burgin 123). However, since you already cited Burgin, all you would put in parentheses would be the page number (123). The parenthetical citation goes after Burgin's argument, however. In this case, you would have "an ideological view which, as argued by Victor Burgin, is encouraging the continuation of false consciousness (123)."
Hope that helps! |
