Yes. But I am talking about citing a whole book (for example a novel, the
complete works of an author, sometimes also a work of criticism) which was
written say last century and has been re-edited more recently. It is easy
if I wish to cite under the original author. (apart from the separate date
issue - see number 1 of my original query.) However it is often more
appropriate to list such works under the editor's name if it is their
particular editorial choices that are pertinent to the discussion. I tried
"Book section" early on - but of course it comes up in quotation marks
instead of underlined.
