Harvard citation style
听
There is no authoritative source for the Harvard citation style, and the exact formatting and punctuation may vary by both country and individual institution.
Consult the Harvard guidelines issued by your department if you are in doubt.
UC 九州影院 strongly recommends using听APA听style where an in-text author-date system is required. APA is well documented and regularly updated.
The examples on these pages are based on Style Manual for Authors, Editors and Printers.
听
In-text citations
The Harvard style uses in-text citations not footnotes.
听
General
When citing sources within the text of an assignment, use only the name of the author followed by the year of publication, e.g. Bauman (2007) claims that鈥
Include a page number and quotation marks if you have directly quoted an author鈥檚 words, e.g. Ritzer and Dean (2011, p. 2) define globalisation as 鈥...鈥
听
Secondary Sources
For sources that you have not actually seen but which are referred to in another work, cite both the original source and the secondary source where you read it, e.g.
Smith (1993, quoted in Gibbs 1998, p. 78) gives an excellent pr茅cis of this contentious subject.
听
Bibliography
听
Your essay should conclude with a full bibliography of works consulted. The Harvard style requires the second and subsequent lines of the reference to be indented, to highlight the alphabetical order.
