Quotations and quotation marks

- Use double quotation marks: “Misquoting an author is

considered a serious offence by many people” (Van
Helder 1890: 138).

- For a quotation within quotation, use single quotation

marks. Within quotation, put square brackets around
additions and deletions: “Pernyata[a]n sejarawan itu
tidak mudah dimengerti. […] Masyarakat umum rupanya
terbiasa akan sudut pandang dari seorang sastrawan.
‘Perbedaan [pandangan] di [antara] mereka sering
membingungkan awam’ […]” (Sutrisno 2005: 221).

- Longer quotations should be set off from the text and

indented, in which case quotation marks are not needed.

Footnotes and references

- Place the footnote number after the punctuation

mark:2, after the comma,3 after the period.4

- References referring to one or two works should be

placed in parentheses in the text (Cohen 2004: 34-39;
Pigeaud 1960-64, V: 281-287; Van Sterkenburg and De
Vries 1997: 56-59).

- More than one work by the same author: separate by

commas (Jones 1998: 66, 2002: 24, 2003: 90). If there
is more than one work per author per year, distinguish
them by adding the letters a, b, c to the date (Cohen
2002a, b, c).

- More than one author with the same surname: include

the first initial (H. Geertz 1971; C. Geertz 1976) (C.
Geertz and H. Geertz 1988).

- Multi-author works: (Houben, Maier, and Van der Molen

1992: 112-115) not (Houben, Maier, and Van der Molen
eds 1992: 112-115). More than three authors uses et al.
behind the first author.

- Any work soon to be published, is to be listed as

”Forthcoming”.

- Repeat the author and date each time, and give exact
page numbers. Do not use such expressions as f., ff.,
passim, loc. cit., &, op. cit., ibid.
