Book projects are due on December 15th and 16th.
We reviewed this in class, but I feel like it needs to be posted. Also, this is information about MLA formatting that you should be able to find on your own.
Quoting Shakespeare
One to three lines
At one point Lady Macbeth calls on night to "pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell, / That my keen
knife see not the wound it makes" (I.v.54-55).
Note the following:
The / indicates a line break.
The (I.v.54-55) indicate the Act, scene, and line numbers.
The period is after the end parenthesis.
Four or more lines
At one point Lady Macbeth calls on night with the lines
Come, thick night,
And pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell,
That my keen knife see not the wound it makes,
Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark. (I.v.53-56)
At this point you would begin discussing your selected quotation and how it connects to your thesis.
Note the following:
Line breaks are indicated by pressing return.
The period is before the parenthesis.
There are no quotation marks.
It is double spaced.
Tab twice to indent.
