Question

(1 point)
• before the title of the collection
• at the beginning of the citation
• after the title of the poem
• after the primary editor's name

Answer 1

The name of the author of the poem should appear after the title of the poem. In citations, it is typically formatted like this:

Author's Last Name, First Name. "Title of Poem." Title of Collection, edited by Editor's First Name Last Name et al., Publisher, Year, pages.

So the correct answer is: after the title of the poem.
