Asked by Mike

I writing an essay on Stevenson's Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. When I use a quote, to put the page number at the end can I just do (37)or do I have to put (Stevenson 37). I have found it both ways on the internet and I don't have my MLA book at home. Thanks

You can put just the page number in parentheses at the end if one or both of the following are true:

1. ... if you have named Stevenson (or whoever the author is) in that sentence.
(Broken Link Removed)
See the first example right under <b>In-text Citation</b>.

2. ... if the citation immediately before the one you want to put only the page number for had the same author.
