"When an entry in the works-cited list begins with the title of the work . . . your in-text citation contains the title. The title may appear in the text itself or, abbreviated, before the page number in the parenthesis."
(MLA Handbook 55-56)
"When a title is needed in a parenthetical citation, abbreviate the title if it is longer than a noun phrase. . . . The abbreviated title should begin with the word by which the title is alphabetized."
(MLA Handbook 117)
