I need to summerize a research paper that is mainly made up of quotes. How do I summerize it when is consist of quoting a quote. How do I structure my paper when the person that wrote the paper has so many quote. I hope this makes sense? Is there a way to summerize a quote that was quoted by someone else? And is there a word for this kind of sumerizing. I am really confused and can't continue until I get this,please help? Again, how do I summerize a paper with quotes quoted by the author. And also, do I need to add that to my work cited page. And is there any there anything I need to add at the end of the sentence, so forth?

Answer 1

This is not my normal area of expertise, but I'd say just make a note that the author included citations from many researchers, and then go on to summarize the actual content, not bothering to include references for each source quoted.

It is, after all, just a summary, no?

You experts out there: am I off base here?
