Onwards and upwards!tutorphilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11842833126210822641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594178812950951651.post-4867787309043112562013-09-26T22:10:10.149+01:002013-09-26T22:10:10.149+01:00Hey Tom! Getting there...but still not quite! Thi...Hey Tom! Getting there...but still not quite! Think about if you were reading this from the point of view of someone who knows nothing about the film, the books or sources you are using...nothing. Would 'Kolar' mean anything to you? This is why you have to reference the quote directly after it - so that the reader can follow up any of your sources. Also it is helpful to make a reference to what the source material was, so for example,<br /> 'As Kolar says in his discussion on German Expressionism, ' The story lines etc...' (Kolar, s.d) <br /><br />So now we know that Kolar was writing an essay on German Expressionism. The quote is referenced afterwards in brackets, and the s.d means there is no date available ( I looked at your bibliography!)<br />Similarly with Reimer...what was the source you used for this? Who is this Reimer?? When you talk about someone for the first time, you should use the full name - so 'Robert Reimer, in his book Historical dictionary of German cinema, agrees that 'The world...'etc (Reimer, 2008) (The book titles would be in italics, of course), and if you use him again, you would just use his surname.<br /><br />A couple of other things - in your bibliography, the names are listed in alphabetical order, surnames first; so, <br />Holmes, M<br />Kolar<br />Reimer, R<br /><br />The names of the book etc should be in italics.<br />And don't forget to reference your images!! :)<br /><br />Lots of nit-picking, I know, but worth it in the end :)Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332181835614441447noreply@blogger.com
