The following Latin abbreviations are used in The Monograph of the Jagiellonian University PhD Student Association:
ibidem (lit. “in the same place”), when citing the same entry as in the previous footnote
idem/eadem (lit. “the same”), when citing the text of the same author whose work had been cited in the previous footnote
op. cit. (lit. “work already cited”), when citing a text previously cited or a text which the article had previously made a reference to. In this case we can resort to two alternatives:
(3a) if throughout the article the author makes a reference to only one text of a given person, “op. cit.” should immediately follow his/her surname,
(3b) if, however, the author makes a reference to more than one work of a given person then a fragment of the work’s title should follow that person’s surname, and only then be followed by “op. cit.”
EXAMPLE 3a: M. Heidegger, op. cit.
EXAMPLE 3b: M. Heidegger, Bycie i czas, op. cit.
It is possible for the above-mentioned abbreviations to co-occur:
EXAMPLE: Idem, Podstawowe problemy fenomenologii, op. cit.
When citing a previously cited work with a longer title, shorten the title:
EXAMPLE: I. Kant, Prolegomena..., op. cit.
