 |
|
Anyone able to recommend APA rules for quoting lines from a speech?
Google search gave me a lot of APA tips but nothing for quoting a public speech.
For example, if I were quoting Martin Luther King's I Have a Dream Speech within the text of my paper, could I do something like this:
| Quote: |
| Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama... .(King, 1963) |
Thanks for any tips/info. |

I found the APA format for a videotape (if thats where you got the speech):
Videotape:
National Geographic Society (Producer). (1987). In the shadow of
Vesuvius. [Videotape]. Washington, DC: Author.
Thats all I could find.

i really like the owl at purdue
you can get around not having the original source this way(if you found a copy of the speech's text):
| Quote: |
Work Discussed in a Secondary Source
List the source the work was discussed in:
Coltheart, M., Curtis, B., Atkins, P., & Haller, M. (1993). Models of reading aloud: Dual-route and parallel-distributed-processing approaches. Psychological Review, 100, 589-608.
NOTE: Give the secondary source in the references list; in the text, name the original work, and give a citation for the secondary source. For example, if Seidenberg and McClelland's work is cited in Coltheart et al. and you did not read the original work, list the Coltheart et al. reference in the References. In the text, use the following citation:
In Seidenberg and McClelland's study (as cited in Coltheart, Curtis, Atkins, & Haller, 1993), ... |
or from apastyle if you take the text from online (say here):
| Quote: |
Online document:
Author, A. A. (2000). Title of work.
Retrieved month day, year, from source.
