Translated work in Sage Harvard

ColmJoseph

Hi - In Sage Harvard the translator of a book is meant to come directly after the title. However, when I create the bibliography the translator is never listed (even though that info is in the Zotero item.). Can you help?

Can you pick out the part/example from the style guidelines regarding this issue? Then I can have a look tomorrow if/how to fix it.

It is not listed in my Sage Harvard, which is very short, but for Harvard it is as follows:

To be made up of:
• Author/editor.
• Year of translated publication (in round brackets).
• Title of book (in italics).
• Translated by ...
• Place of publication: reprint publisher.
In-text citation:
Ludwig (2005) feared the worst for Napoleon.

Reference list:
Ludwig, E. (2005) Napoleon. Translated by E. Paul and C. Paul. London: Book Jungle.

But as that page says -- there are many versions of "Harvard" which really just means "author-date" and while I guess we can put it into Sage Harvard, we prefer not to just invent things. Any reason you want to stick with the Sage Harvard version? I think e.g. Cite them right would likely add book translators.

The journal am submitting to uses Sage Harvard, and they also include the translator. For certain types of work, including the translator is normal and required.

OK, could you provide a couple of sample citations & links to the citing articles from said journal then?

Thanks, we'll get this fixed.

I just pushed a fix -- The style will now display editors & translators the way they are in JCS.

thanks. I'll try it out.
