footnotes (as cited in)

How would I do a footnote that was originally published elsewhere (as in a primary source) (using Chicago Manual of Style, Full Note w/ Bibliography)?

Here's an example:

Quintus Tullius Cicero. “Handbook on Canvassing for the Consulship,” in Rome: Late Republic and Principate, ed. Walter Emil Kaegi Jr. and Peter White, vol. 2 of University of Chicago Readings in Western Civilization, ed. John Boyer and Julius Kirshner (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1986), 35.
  • that seems like a regular book section, no?
    Your item in Zotero should look like this
    Title: Handbook on Canvassing for the Consulship
    Author: Quintus Tullius Cicero
    Editor: Walter Emil Kaegi Jr. and Peter White (on separate lines, obviously)
    Series Editor: John Boyer and Julius Kirshner (again, separate lines)
    Book TItle: Rome: Late Republic and Principate
    Series: University of Chicago Readings in Western Civilization
    Volume:2
    Location: Chicago
    Publisher University of Chicago Press
    Date: 1986
  • wow, you're fast!

    with your help, I'm getting the hang of this!

    Thanks.
  • How did you get the editor and series editor to show up?

    When I choose "Book Section" after "Item Type," I only see: title, author, abstract, book title, series, series #, Volume, # of volumes, edition, place, publishers, dates, pages, etc?
  • Click on the author label (not the field, the label that says, "Author").
  • http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/edited_volumes_and_book_chapters

    This is in the FAQ - in general Zotero is well documented - it's very worthwhile learning to navigate the documentation.
  • Thanks so much to both of you!
