  2. 10/3/2013 • A dropped quotation is a quote that a writer has just dropped into his or her text without integrating it into a sentence. • The quote should never be a separate sentence; it should always be connected to your own sentence.

  3. Integrating Quotes 1 • Option 1: For example, “Quote” (citation). *This is the easiest and most common format.* • 1. The Wife of Bath represents a typical member of the middle or merchant class. For example, “In making cloth she showed so great a bent / She bettered those of Ypres and of Ghent” (Chaucer 457-458).

  4. Integrating Quotes 2 • Option 2: Person says, “Quote” (citation). *Says can be changed into a variety of action verbs.* • 2. The Wife of Bath is rather materialistic. The narrator reports,“Her kerchiefs were of finely woven ground; /I dared have sworn they weighed a good ten pound, /The ones she wore on Sunday, on her head” (Chaucer 463-465).

  5. Integrating Quotes 3 • Option 3: Complete statement supported by quote: “Quote” (citation). • The clause must be a full sentence. The quote proves the sentence. • 3. The Wife of Bath is in love with love:“She’d had five husbands, all at the church door” (Chaucer 470).

  6. Integrating Quotes 4 • Option 4: Finish the sentence with a “quote” (citation). *Sentence would be a fragment without the quote.* • 4. Because of her several marriages , the Wife of Bath “knew the remedies for love’s mischances” (Chaucer 485).

  7. Modifying Quotes • Use an ellipsis to eliminate a word, a phrase, a sentence, or more from a quoted passage. • Use brackets to add a comment or explanation within a quoted passage. • Option 2: The narrator reports, “Her [Wife of Bath] kerchiefs were of finely woven ground; …The ones she wore on Sunday, on her head” (Chaucer 463-465).

  8. Instructions • Practice the four quote integration structures. • Use the brackets and ellipsis to modify the quotes. • Knight: Page 89 • Pardoner: Page 104
