在英语论文中引用名人名言时,需遵循以下格式规范:
一、直接引用格式
结构要求 先介绍名人背景:使用"According to [姓名],[身份描述],"[引语]"的结构
示例:
> According to Francis Bacon, a renowned British writer and philosopher, "Money is a good servant and a bad master."
格式要点
引语需完整引用原话,使用引号括起来
若引用完整句子,首字母需大写
二、间接引用格式
结构要求
使用俗语或古话:
"There goes a saying that..."
"As a saying goes..."
"As the saying goes..."
示例:
> There goes a saying that he knows most who speaks least.
注意事项
间接引用无需标注名人姓名,直接以"俗语/古话"开头
三、格式要求补充
文献标注
被引用文献需用引号标出,注明页码范围(如:Bacon, F. (1626). *Novum Organum*. London: Andrew Crooke, p. 356-357)
同作者多部作品仅需首次标注姓氏,后续用"..."替代
引用位置
文章开头或相关讨论段落
引用后需用括号或注释说明来源
四、示例综合应用
直接引用示例
> As Confucius, China's most famous philosopher, once said, "Never give a sword to a man who can't dance."
间接引用示例:
> As the saying goes, "Practice makes perfect."
通过以上格式规范,可确保名人名言的引用既尊重原意,又符合学术规范。
