Question 8 • FL-0100320-Art in World Cultures

Which in-text citation is formatted correctly?

Answer
A
Odysseus “addressed them, sore at heart. (Homer 14)”
B
Odysseus “addressed them, sore at heart” (Homer 14).
C
Odysseus “addressed them, sore at heart” (14).
D
“Homer writes that Odysseus addressed them, sore at heart” (Homer).

Explanation

In MLA style, an in-text citation includes the author’s last name and the page number, with no comma between them. The sentence-ending period goes after the parenthetical citation, so “(Homer 14).” is correctly placed. Choice B follows both rules.
