The Kreutzer Sonata and Other Stories by Leo Tolstoy

What Is Art? Translated by Almyer Maude, Bobbs Merrill, 1960. Great Short Works of Leo Tolstoy, translated by Louise Maude et al., Harper Perennial Modern Classics, 2004, pp. The Kreutzer Sonata and Other Stories, translated by Louise Maude et al., Oxford UP, 1999, pp. Works-Cited List 2: Mix of Russian and English Entries If some of the entries are in the foreign language and some in English, provide transliterations and alphabetize by transliteration (list 2). If all the entries under an author’s name are in the foreign language, alphabetize according to the rules of the language (list 1). In the list of works cited, titles of works in languages that do not use roman characters should appear in this order: original characters, then transliteration (if included), then translation. For example, there is more than one way to present an Arabic term: In the text of your essay, include the elements in whatever order makes sense in your discussion.

Aside from this practical reason, we feel that using the original characters shows a respect for the foreign language that once was generally not shown in academic work. Nowadays all three elements can be useful to readers searching for a source on the Internet. In its publications, the MLA prefers to give the original characters (script) and a translation for titles and quotations it also includes transliteration in some of its publications, especially those geared for nonspecialists.
