Can somebody help me with parenthetical citations in an essay?

Question

I'm writing an essay about being vegetarian, and I have this one book called The Vegetarian Way, which I am quoting in my essay, but that book quotes another person named Ralph Waldo Emerson. So technically I am quoting Emerson, but since I found the quote in The Vegetarian Way by Virginia and Mark Messina, I'm pretty sure I need to cite them as well. Can somebody please help me with how to cite the source? Thank you!

Answer 1

Does "The Vegetarian Way," have a footnotes or endnotes section, I would suggest you site it as Virginia and Mark Messina sited Emerson.

Or you could do
(Virginia and Mark Messina 2000, pg3, translated from Ralph Waldo Emerson)

But yeah you do have to give credit to Emerson.

Answer 2

I would give Emerson credit in the text, and in the citation list only the Messina book.

eg. Emerson argued vegetarian is great (Messina 240).

Answer 3

If bringing up a e book... He reported "blah blah blah" (author, web page volume). in the different case use the author if a source does no longer use paper pages. He reported "blah blah" (author). If no author is for sale, use the identify of the source or element of it. If the identify is lengthy, use element of the identify. She reported "blah blah" (identify). also comprise a web page volume if the source is a e book. If no longer basically use a identify.
