4. Models for quotation and Bibliography:

4.1 Direct Quotations

a) In the direct form must be transcript between quotations, when they hold until 3 printed lines, where must be written the author’s name, the date and the page, as in the example: “People know that for so long the human being has been causing nature unbalance and that something urgent must be done to minimize the effects from this harmful action” (NEIMAN,2005p.17).

b) The quotations of more than one author will done with the indication of the 2 authors’ surname separated by “and”, as in the example: SATO and CARVALHO (2005 p. 12) say that ” the EE are much more in quicksand than in a sunny coast”.

c) When the quotation has more than 3 lines, it must be separated by a retreat paragraph with 4,0 cm  in simple space, ARIAL 11. As in the example:

Severino (2002 p.185) understands that:

                     “The argumentation, or,the operation with arguments, presented with the objectives to prove a thesis, is based on the rational evidence and in the facts evidence. The rational evidence, on its turn, is justified by the logic principles. More primitive fundaments can be searched. The evidence is the manifested certainty imposed by the power of the action ways and the own reason.”

 4.2 Indirect Quotation

a) The indirect quotation , called conceptual, reproduce ideas from a consulted source , but does not transcript the text. This kind of quotation can be presented by a paraphrase ,when it is stick to the source , and is generally preferrable to a long text quotation , but should be done clearly to show the author. In this specific case it is not necessary to mention the page number, because the paraphrase may be the synthesis of a whole thought.

4.3 Quotation of a quotation

a) Avoid using bibliographic material that was not previously consulted , but if it is indispensable, reffer to it using the apud (with) and the surname of the consulted work ,in small letters, as the example Freire apud Saviani (1998 p. 30) or (Freire apud Saviani, 1998 p. 30).
