How do you write a reference list in the MLA writing style?
Your list of references in an MLA paper will be called "Works Cited," and that is the title that should go at the top of the page in the center. (This is not the same thing as the header, which is where your last name and the page number go.)
Remember, punctuation is important.
After the Works Cited, you would list each entry alphabetically by author. List the author (last name, comma, first name, period), title (book or main publication title, comma, article or short work title), publisher,publication city, and date (publisher, colon, city, comma, date), and page numbers of the borrowed material (i.e. 32-46).
Other things that you would need to include can be found at this site owl.English.purdue.edu/owl/resource/557/01/, depending on the *type* of entry... websites require the URL and don't always have page numbers, magazines require the magazine title and the article title, etc... each entry should have a hanging indent, meaning that the first line is flush with the left margin and the rest of the entry is indented five spaces. You do not have to do this by hand if you have a word processing program. They can do it automatically.
There is an example here ccc.commnet.edu/mla/sample.shtmlif you are looking for an overall look. If you need details about how to enter a movie or a book with multiple authors, or other types of entries, use the link in the previous paragraph.
Also, the definative authority is the MLA Guide, which I believe is in its sixth edition. It can be found at most public and academic libraries, or can be purchased at any university/college bookstore, or most retail book dealers.

What is a critical appreciation of Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelly?
Ozymandias, the most outstanding political sonnet written by P.B. Shelley throws light on the power of time. Nothing can beat time. It treats everyone equally whether rich or poor, king or pauper.
The poem is an account of the meeting and conversation between the poet and the narrator. The narrator had just returned from an antique and unique land. The poem begins with the traveller telling the poet that he had seen a vast but ruined statue, where stood two giant legs, isolated in the desert. The face was sunk in the sand, frowning and sneering. The sculptor interpreted his subject well. There also was a pedestal at the statue, where the traveller noticed that the statue read "Ozymandias, King of Kings." Through the note written on pedestal, the traveller came to know that he was a powerful king named Ozymandias who could not face the power of time. His strength, works or ego - nothing had remained. He had been perished by the storm of time and was now standing trunk-less in the vast desert. The expressions noticed by the traveller were those of frown and ignorant pride. It could well be understood that the ruler was tyrannous.
The poem conveys the message that man is mortal. He might be proud of his powers but the reality is far more cruel that everything comes to an end as the time keeps on moving and changing. Immortality is the fact concerned with views, time, poetry and goodness only. Thus, Shelley points out very well the power of time. He says that how much ever the emperor might be cruel and powerful in his own time, the race with time can never be won.
Finally, we cannot miss the general comment on human vanity in the poem. It is not just the "mighty" who desire to withstand time; it is common for people to seek immortality and to resist death and decay. Furthermore, the sculptor himself gets attention and praise that used to be deserved by the king, for all that Ozymandias achieved has now "decayed" into almost nothing, while the sculpture has lasted long enough to make it into poetry. In a way, the artist has become more powerful than the king. The only things that "survive" are the artist's records of the king's passion, carved into the stone.
Perhaps Shelley chose the medium of poetry in order to create something more powerful and lasting than what politics could achieve, all the while understanding that words too will eventually pass away. Unlike many of his poems, "Ozymandias" does not end on a note of hope. There is no extra stanza or concluding couplet to honour the fleeting joys of knowledge or to hope in human progress. Instead, the traveller has nothing more to say, and the persona draws no conclusions of his own.
