xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

xxxx. (Gómez Redondo 1996: 640)

Ex: xxxxxxxxxx1.

Ex: “xxxxxxxxxxxx”2.

Ex: “xxxxxxxxxxx” (Machado 1987: 4)3.

― Use of confront/see

a) In body: between parentheses and using cf. (on italic)

Eg: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (cf. Eco 1988: 34).

Eg: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (cf. Machado 1987 and Ruiz Pérez 1989)

*If in cf. Between parentheses that include several authors, specific pages are specified, move to a footnote (as in the following example from See):

a) As a general rule, high quotation marks [""] are used, which will always go before semicolons.

b) In case of quotes inside quotes, single quotes [''] are used:

Example: “xxxxxx xxxxx xxxxx ‘xxxxxxxxx’ xxxxx” (Sierra 2007: 32).

c) Single quotes [''] are also used in the case of non-foreign expressions that are not quotes but that the author considers relevant to underline through this means.

Ex: "it is, needless to say, 'the one-armed from Lepanto', that is, Cervantes"; "Imagination was considered 'the crazy house' at that time."

-Bar:

Before and after the introduction of the slash, a space should be left as a general rule, except in the case of dichotomies and the like:

Ex: xxxxxxxxxxxxx / xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Ex: solid/liquid, energetic/energetic

-Stripe:

For subsections, comments and dialogue entries quoted from novels, use hyphen [―] instead of hyphen [-] or hyphen [–]:

Ex: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ―xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx― xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

― Passages omitted in the text: with square brackets […], without periods, commas or ellipses before or after them.

For example: "it reflects the effects of globalization, migration, nomadism, tourism, the Internet, mobile telephony [...] interacting with the enormous and fascinating potential offered by new information technologies" (2007: 32).

― Foreign words, Latinisms or technical terms in italics.

Ex: contemptus mundi, avant la lettre, crack-up…
