Answer:
"I lived in the first century of world wars" is the opening line of "Poem" by Muriel Rukeyser (1913-1980) an American poet and political activist. Her best-known poems are about social justice, equality and feminism. Her choice of words establishes her anti-war theme and her efforts to oppose war through her poetry: "Slowly I would get to pen and paper, Make my poems for others unseen and unborn. In the day I would be reminded of those men and women, Brave, setting up signals across vast distances, Considering a nameless way of living, of almost unimagined values." She felt her poetry, which would outlive her, would be a message to those "unseen and unborn" who could work to promote peace and justice. "We would try by any means To reach the limits of ourselves, to reach beyond ourselves, To let go the means, to wake." Here Rukeyser was passing on the baton, as it were, to the generations "beyond ourselves" in the hope that they would be more purposeful peacemakers.
The correct answer is The author's last name and page number(s) must appear within the text and after the direct or indirect quotation.
According to MLA Handbook (8th ed.), whenever a quotation is directly or indirectly inserted in the body of a research paper, it is essential to acknowledge the source where the quotation was taken form. To do so, it is necessary to add a parenthetical reference at the end of the quotation with the author’s (or authors’) last name(s) and the page number(s) of the quotation, paraphrase, or summary you are quoting. For example:
Sometimes, teachers will shy away from teaching literature with a goal of aesthetic reading because it is nearly impossible to measure accurately a student’s personal responses to the text (Cline 96).
