How to represent circa and BCE in yaml?

How to represent circa and BCE in yaml?

[Joseph Reagle]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1147 bytes --]

I've seen a couple of bugs discussing ranges, multiples, negatives (BCE), and circa, but in playing with a minimal example, I can't figure out the correct format. Is there documentation on this?


I can get BCE to work with a negative 'year' integer.

But circa...

```
  issued:
    - year: 161
    - circa: 1
```

 puts a `-` after AD?

```
<li id="fn1" role="doc-endnote"><p>Marcus Aurelius, <em>Meditations</em>, ed. Maxwell Staniforth (London: Penguin Books, 161AD–).<a href="#fnref1" class="footnote-back" role="doc-backlink">↩︎</a></p></li>
```

No idea how to do a range or multiple specification. (I do use 'original-date''year', but chicago-fullnote-bibliography.csl doesn't seem to use that...)

The correct format for ranges (and original-date) is this:

---
references:
- id: item1
  type: book
  author:
  - family: Doe
    given: John
  issued:
  - year: 2007

  original-date:

    month: 1
    day: 31
  - year: 1808
    month: 12
    day: 31
  title: Title
  language: en-US
...


As to chicago-fullnote-bibliography.csl, please file a bug report at https://forums.zotero.org/discussions. (Should be fixed to output original-date, just like chicago-author-date.csl does already.)

As to circa, nothing off the top of my head, but I’ll have a closer look.

Re: How to represent circa and BCE in yaml?

['Nick Bart' via pandoc-discuss]

The correct format for “circa” is:

---
references:
- id: item1
  type: book
  author:
  - family: Doe
    given: John
  issued:
  - year: 2007
    month: 1
    day: 31
    circa: true
  original-date:
  - year: 1807
    month: 1
    day: 31
  - year: 1808
    month: 12
    day: 31
    circa: true
  title: Title
  language: en-US
...


However, while apa.csl correctly renders


Doe ([ca. 1807–1808]/[ca. 2007])

Doe, J. [ca. 2007]. _Title_. [Original work published ca. 1807–1808]


chicago-fullnote-bibliography.csl outputs the following (confusing “circa” and “uncertain” [note: there are no provisions for the latter in the CSL specs]):


John Doe[1]

Doe, John. _Title_, [2007?].

[1] _Title_, [2007?].


and chicago-author-date.csl renders nothing w.r.t. to “circa” at all:


Doe ([1807–1808] 2007)

Doe, John. (1807–1808) 2007. _Title_.


Concerning the latter two I’d recommend, again, filing a bug report at https://forums.zotero.org/discussions.

Is this documented anywhere? I was reading these issues and '1' was used instead of 'true' -- which led to problems.

Why Zotero discussions rather than CSL issues?

> Is this documented anywhere?

Actually, I don’t think so. There’s some documentation on CSL JSON dates (https://citeproc-js.readthedocs.io/en/latest/csl-json/markup.html#date-fields), but nothing I’m aware of on CSL YAML date syntax - which is in part different from CSL JSON’s.

I really wish both CSL JSON and CSL YAML were using a fully standardized date format such as ISO8601/EDTF - it would make things so much easier.

Fortunately, biblatex does use ISO8601/EDTF, so if in doubt, you can always put together a minimal biblatex record, run it through `pandoc-citeproc -y` and inspect the output.

> Why Zotero discussions rather than CSL issues?

This at first appeared strange to me as well, but while bug reports at https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/issues eventually will be taken note of, too, de facto it is the Zotero forum where the vast majority of CSL style file issues are being reported and discussed.

Re: How to represent circa and BCE in yaml?

['Nick Bart' via pandoc-discuss]

As to why `circa: 1` no longer works, I seem to recall that at some point pandoc-citeproc started applying the YAML specs more strictly, and these don’t allow 1/0 as Boolean values. (See http://yaml.org/type/bool.html.)

I'm not getting any indication of circa in the following example:

Re: How to represent circa and BCE in yaml?

['Nick Bart' via pandoc-discuss]

P.S.:

While ISO8601 (and, e.g., biblatex) treat “circa” and “uncertain” as distinct concepts, CSL conflates them (“Approximate dates test “true” for the is-uncertain-date conditional”, http://docs.citationstyles.org/en/1.0.1/specification.html#approximate-dates).

And CMOS 17e, 14.145, “No date of publication” recommends:

“Edinburgh, [1750?]” or “Edinburgh, n.d., ca. 1750”

... so the behaviour of chicago-fullnote-bibliography.csl can’t really be described as a bug (though I’m not happy with this either).

Re: How to represent circa and BCE in yaml?

As someone who has just submitted a PhD in classics & ancient history,
which was written using pandoc and tex exclusively, I just want to point
out that quoting ancient texts as below (like they are modern translated
works) isn’t the proper way to cite or reference them, and so a lot of the
bother can be avoided simply by citing them correctly:

   1. Works are referenced using a standard method to reference ancient
   authors and their works, usually the format from the Oxford Classical
   Encyclopedia but other standard references are also available.
   2. Don’t cite page numbers -- use the reference numbers from one of the
   standard critical editions (good translations will have these annotated in
   them, e.g. Oxford World Classics editions)
   3. Have a separate ‘ancient bibliography’ section which shows your
   sources and their translations (if you aren’t translating it yourself)

e.g. here’s a sample cut-and-paste from my ancient sources

*Cic*. (Cicero)

*Div*. — M. Tullius Cicero, Plasberg, O., & Ax, W., (1965)*. De
Divinatione, De Fato, Timaeus* (Editio stereo- typa editionis primae
(MCMXXXVIII) ed., Scripta quae manserunt omnia; fasc. 46). Stutgardiae: In
aedibus B.G. Teubneri.

*Dom*. — M. Tullius Cicero & Peterson, W. (1910). *Orationes. Cum Senatui
Gratias Egit, Cum Populo Gratias Egit, De Domo Sua, De Haruspicum Responso,
Pro Sestio, In Vatinium, De Provinciis Consularibus, Pro Balbo* (Scriptorum
classicorum bibliotheca Oxoniensis). Oxford: The Clarendon Press.

*Har. resp.* — See *Dom*. for source text.

*Nat. D*. — M. Tullius Cicero, Mayor, J. B., & Swainson, J. H. (2010). *De
Natura Deorum Libri Tres* (Text of Book II. with Critical Notes. (pp.
1-64)). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.

*Prov. cons.* — See *Dom*. for source text.

*Rep*. — M. Tullius Cicero & Powell, J.G.F. (2006). *De Re Publica, De
Legibus, Cato Maior De Senectute, Laelius De Amicitia *(Scriptorum
classicorum bibliotheca Oxoniensis). Oxford, New York: Oxford University
Press.

And from my pandoc/markdown source file, manually typed:

*Cic.*
  ~ (Cicero)
  ~ *Div.* --- M. Tullius Cicero, Plasberg, O., & Ax, W., (1965). *De
Divinatione, De Fato, Timaeus* (Editio stereotypa editionis primae
(MCMXXXVIII) ed., Scripta quae manserunt omnia; fasc. 46). Stutgardiae: In
aedibus B.G. Teubneri.
  ~ *Dom.* --- M. Tullius Cicero & Peterson, W. (1910). *Orationes. Cum
Senatui Gratias Egit, Cum Populo Gratias Egit, De Domo Sua, De Haruspicum
Responso, Pro Sestio, In Vatinium, De Provinciis Consularibus, Pro Balbo*
(Scriptorum classicorum bibliotheca Oxoniensis). Oxford: The Clarendon
Press.
  ~ *Har. resp.* --- See *Dom.* for source text.
  ~ *Nat. D.* --- M. Tullius Cicero, Mayor, J. B., & Swainson, J. H.
(2010). *De Natura Deorum Libri Tres* (Text of Book II. with Critical
Notes. (pp. 1-64)). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.
  ~ *Prov. cons.* --- See *Dom.* for source text.
  ~ *Rep.* --- M. Tullius Cicero & Powell, J.G.F. (2006). *De Re Publica,
De Legibus, Cato Maior De Senectute, Laelius De Amicitia* (Scriptorum
classicorum bibliotheca Oxoniensis). Oxford, New York: Oxford University
Press.


So when I cited a section from one of the above it would be cited as e.g. “Cic.
*Har. resp.* 23.48.”

All my *modern* sources on the other hand were cited with citeproc and
managed from a bibtex file, so the footnote that contains the citation
referenced above literally looks like this:

[^fn02_37]: Cic. *Har. resp.* 23.48. Further discussion in, for example:
[@Nice1999 p.272; @Stevenson2015 p.74-75; @Osgood2009 p.330-331; @Sumi2009
p.171-172; @Szemler1971 p.130; @Bell1997 p.11; @Taylor2000 p.16].

It really annoys me to see a reference like, (Cicero 57 B.C.E. p.122).
It’s not right, if you have an editor that insists otherwise, that editor
is flat wrong.

I've seen a couple of bugs discussing ranges, multiples, negatives (BCE),

correct format. Is there documentation on this?


I can get BCE to work with a negative 'year' integer.

But circa...

```
issued:
- year: 161
- circa: 1
```

puts a `-` after AD?

```
<li id="fn1" role="doc-endnote"><p>Marcus Aurelius, <em>Meditations</em>,
ed. Maxwell Staniforth (London: Penguin Books, 161AD–).<a href="#fnref1"
class="footnote-back" role="doc-backlink">↩︎</a></p></li>
```

No idea how to do a range or multiple specification. (I do use
'original-date''year', but chicago-fullnote-bibliography.csl doesn't seem
to use that...)

Hello Scot, that was a minimal-working toy example for the purpose of discussing pandoc dates.

Oh, sure, but for the purposes of citation, B.C.E. dates aren’t necessary ;)
