CHICAGO MANUAL OF STYLE DAY

  Footnotes Conference:

Following a citation format has much more to do with your ability to follow simple directions than it does with your ability to remember ridiculous citation formulas.

Here is the front page of the OWL site for Chicago Manual: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/717/01/

General Format:

Here is the OWL site for the general guidelines:  https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/717/02/

Notice, your final paper must have a title page.

Here is the OWL site for the sample paper:           https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/717/11/

Here is the OWL site for how to cite a book:      https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/717/03/

The most difficult issue to overcome with Chicago Manual is this; you enter the bibliographic information differently in the footnotes and the bibliography.

Here is an example:

In Democracy and Other Neoliberal Fantasies, Jodi Dean argues that “imagining a rhizome might be nice, but rhizomes don’t describe the underlying structure of real networks,” rejecting the idea that there is such a thing as a nonhierarchical interconnectedness that structures our contemporary world.¹ The 23 year old Belgian had been strongly linked with a move to the Spanish giants before he opted to make the move from Lille to west London and is now seemingly once again a Bernabeu target.
