Tutorial 2: Using a Style Manual

Special cases

Many pages in Turabian (and other style manuals) are devoted to specifying how to handle special citation situations.

Do you have multiple authors? A translated book? A revised edition of a book? An unsigned article in an encyclopedia?

Turabian will spell out exactly how to handle these and a multitude of other situations that may not fit the standard citation model.
