How do you cite The Odyssey?

Answer 1

When citing "The Odyssey" in an academic paper or publication, you should follow the guidelines of the citation style required (e.g., APA, MLA, Chicago). In general, you would include the author's name (Homer), the title of the work (italicized or underlined), the edition or translation used, the publisher, and the publication year. For example, in MLA format, it could look like: Homer. The Odyssey. Translated by Robert Fagles, Penguin Books, 1996.

Answer 2

That depends on which type of essay you are composing. And which format is required for that citation. There are many kinds, but you could do a simple goolgle search of APA, MLA, and Chicago style citations to figure out which one works best for your essay. You might also email your teacher to make sure the one you choose is acceptable. In nearly all of my high school work we used MLA and in almost all of my college work we used APA. Hope that helps.

Answer 3

To cite The Odyssey in MLA format, include the author's name (Homer), the title of the epic poem (italicized), the translator (if applicable), the publisher, the publication year, and the medium (print or web). For example: Homer. The Odyssey. Translated by Emily Wilson, W.W. Norton & Company, 2017.

In APA format, cite it as follows: Homer. (2017). The Odyssey (E. Wilson, Trans.). W.W. Norton & Company.

Always check the specific citation style guide you are using for any updates or deviations.
