According to the MHRA Style Guide, this item should be cited in a bibliography as follows:

Modern Language Review, 110.1 (2015)

This is how standard MHRA style would look. Some of its book series (notably Legenda) allow an alternative citation system called 'author-date', but please talk to your editor before using it. (To see the demonstration for author-date, follow this link.)

Let's take this bibliography entry one step at a time:

Step 1. Here we identify the journal.

Modern Language Review, 110.1

Step 2. Since this is a journal, no need for place of publication or publisher, only the year.

Modern Language Review, 110.1 (2015)

And that's the finished bibliography entry. Note that there's no final full stop.

So how about citations in footnotes or endnotes?

In standard MHRA style, the first time the work is cited in a note, it should be cited in full. This looks very like a Bibliography entry, but:

• The author's name doesn't always come first: only for monographs. For collections and editions, the title comes first.
• Even if the author's name does come first, it's back to being the right way round, so it's Forename Surname, not Surname, Forename;
• Unlike Bibliography entries, notes are punctuated as sentences, and usually end in full stops.

Suppose we want to cite a passage on pages 24 to 27:

³⁴ See Modern Language Review, 110.1 (2015), pp. 24-27.

But in any subsequent notes, a heavily abbreviated form is used:

³⁷ Compare , p. 17.
