Q. How do I do the in-text citation for a translated book, using MLA format?

Generally, you will credit or acknowledge the author of the book title you are citing, as opposed to the translator, in the in-text citation.

In the works cited page, you will again acknowledge the author, but also note the translator. Please consult the following resources for citation support.
