Template:RQ:Langley Rhetoric/documentation

Usage

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Larret Langley's work A Manual of the Figures of Rhetoric (1835). It may be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books.

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |page= – optional: the number of the page to link to at Google Books.
• |2=, |text=, or |passage= – The passage to be quoted.
• |brackets= – use |brackets=off to disable surrounding a quotation with brackets. (It's on by default for this template.) This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.

Examples

• Wikitext:
  • {{RQ:Langley Rhetoric|page=78|passage=An '''''Epizeuxis''''' twice a word repeats,<br/>And graces thus the theme on which it treats.}}; or
  • {{RQ:Langley Rhetoric|78|An '''''Epizeuxis''''' twice a word repeats,<br/>And graces thus the theme on which it treats.}}
• Result:
  • [1835, L[arret] Langley, A Manual of the Figures of Rhetoric, […], Doncaster: Printed by C. White, Baxter-Gate, →OCLC, page 78:

    An Epizeuxis twice a word repeats,
    And graces thus the theme on which it treats.]
