book title first in biblography

Post by oz123 »

Hi,

I'm writing a document which is intended to be submitted according to German Law rules of citations.

According to these, if a source is a "Legislative comment" e.g. Kommentar, the title should be displayed before the author name, e.g.

Munchener Kommentar/Hans-Hermann Seiler, ...

I found a hint how to do this in the footcite by:

\newcommand{\myfootcite}[2][]{%
\footnote{\citefield{shorttitle}{#2}/\cite[#1]{#2}}
}


However, in the Bibliography itself it's displayed as:
Seiler, Hans-Hermann, Munchener Kommentar zum Burgerlichen Gesetzbuch. Band 4,
Schuldrecht besonderer Teil, §§ 607–704, 3. Auflage. Munchen, 1997.

I would be greatfull if someone could come up with an idea how to define this entry so that the title is first (before the author name)

my bibtex file:

Code: Select all

@COMMENTED{ try,
	author = "Hans Joachim Hirsch",
	title = "Leipziger Kommentar zum StGB",
	shorttitle = " Leipziger Kommentar",
	juraauthor = "",
	juratitle = "",
	volume = "4",
	volumetitle = "wie der BAnd heißt",
	editor = {Hrsg. Burkhard J{\"a}hnke/Heinrich Wilhelm Laufh{\"u}tte/Walter Odersky},
	address = "Berlin",
	publisher = "De Gruyter Rechtswissenschaften Verlag",
	pages = "Rn. 2",
	updated = "",
	howcited = "",
	edition = "11",
	year = "2005"
}

 @COMMENTED{comm,
 author = {Hans-Hermann Seiler},
 title = {Munchener Kommentar zum Burgerlichen Gesetzbuch},
 shorttitle = {Munchener Kommentar},
 volume = 4,
 volumetitle = {Schuldrecht besonderer Teil, \S\S~607--704},
 address = {Munchen},
 year = 1997,
 edition = 3,
 howcited = "Munchener Kommentar/Bearbeiter"
 }
My latex file:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper,widefront,]{jura}
\usepackage{verbatim} 
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} %Silbentrennung
\usepackage{jurabib}
\usepackage{ngerman}
\usepackage{times}
\bibliographystyle{jurabib}

\jurabibsetup{howcited=normal}


%\jbdonotindexauthors

\linespread{1.3}
\setlength{\textheight}{38.\baselineskip}
\setlength\topmargin{-2\baselineskip}
\setlength\footskip{0.5cm}

\newcommand{\myfootcite}[2][]{%
\footnote{\citefield{shorttitle}{#2}/\cite[#1]{#2}}
}

\begin{document}

 irgendwas soll citiert werden \footcite[§ 12, Rn. 2]{try}
un das muss erst defniert werden? \myfootcite[§ 12, Rn.3]{try}
und beim zweiten mal \myfootcite[§ andere]{try}
und der \myfootcite[ireng]{comm}


\end{document}
Thanks in advance,

Oz
