Nov 1, 2021 at 15:09 comment added joncgoodwin In that case, I think my comment immediately above provides a reasonable answer. A more general issue to think about is that, if the CMS does not explicitly provide a model for what you want to do, then no professor or editor is going to have a problem with how you format it, as long as you follow the general guidelines.

Oct 30, 2021 at 19:34 comment added joncgoodwin If you mean that the source you cite first is Hoffman, then I'd add Hoffman's bibliographic information and then "Hoffman cites [bibliographic information of quote]."
Oct 30, 2021 at 18:52 comment added joncgoodwin In the example in my comment above, Ross = Hoffman, no?
Oct 30, 2021 at 11:06 comment added kraagje @user2619203 The CMS only discusses the case in which one wants to quote the part that Hoffman quoted. It says nothing about what you should do when you also include part of the text written by Hoffman.
Oct 28, 2021 at 19:00 comment added joncgoodwin Yes, it does, as does the CMS. See: "Astrik L. Gabriel, "The Educational Ideas of Christine de Pisan," Journal of the History of Ideas 16, no. 1 (1995): 3-21, quoted in Sarah Gwyneth Ross, The Birth of Feminism: Women as Intellect in Renaissance Italy and England (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 2009), 23." The question did not give the bibliographic information for what Hoffman quoted, but it can be found in the source and formatted per above.
Oct 28, 2021 at 18:35 comment added henning no longer feeds AI The linked example doesn't answer the question whether the in-text reference to the source of the "inner" quotation has to be included within the "outer" quotation and if so, how.
