What do you use for referencing in academic papers in history written in English? I know MLA is used for literature, and Chicago Style for Linguistics, but what about history?
Thanks Marc! How do others on here do referencing? I am familiar with how it is done in German but would like to be able to cite properly in English, too, so further input would be very welcome. *edit* Can you write something in the text and only mention the author in a footnote? Instead of writing "According to X, Y = Z" write "Y = Z1" 1 X, title, year, page. Is that acceptable?
