BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Bibtex short title

[Yeats]

Hi everyone,
I am writing my PhD in theology and I need a package (or some other way) to do the following:

I need to have one (short) title in the footnote and the other (full) title in the bibliography.


Here is an example:

Lets say i quote \footcite{iustini1877) in text.

which is the entry for:

Code: Select all

@book{iustini1877,
	Address = {Ienae},
	Author = {{Iustinus Martyr}},
	Call-Number = {TH: Vb 6.00 2/3},
	Date-Added = {2010-02-06 12:06:48 +0100},
	Date-Modified = {2010-02-17 12:29:56 +0100},
	Edition = {3. Plvrimvm avcta et emendata},
	Editor = {Johann Carl Theodor Otto},
	Publisher = {Prostat in Libraria Hermanni Dufft},
	Series = {Corpvs Apologetarvm Christianorvm saecvli secvndi},
	Title = {Opera Ivstini indvbitata: Dialogvs cvm Tryphone Ivdaeo},
	Volume = {1,2},
	Year = {1877}}

I need my footnote to look like this:

Iust. De Tryph. 1,12


But at the end in bibliography I need to have it normally, like this:

Iustinus Martyr; Otto, Johann Carl Theodor (Hrsg.): Opera Ivstini indvbitata: Dialogvs cvm Tryphone Ivdaeo. Band 1,2, Corpvs Apologetarvm Christianorvm saecvli secvndi. 3. Auflage. Ienae: Prostat in Libraria Hermanni Dufft, 1877.

Is there any way to do this?

I sort of already have an idea how to do this but I dont know how to make it work.

My idea is to add one custom field in Bibtex entry like this:

Code: Select all

@book{iustini1877,
	Cstmfld = {Iust. De Tryph.},
	Address = {Ienae},
	Author = {{Iustinus Martyr}},
	Call-Number = {TH: Vb 6.00 2/3},
	Date-Added = {2010-02-06 12:06:48 +0100},
	Date-Modified = {2010-02-17 12:29:56 +0100},
	Edition = {3. Plvrimvm avcta et emendata},
	Editor = {Johann Carl Theodor Otto},
	Publisher = {Prostat in Libraria Hermanni Dufft},
	Series = {Corpvs Apologetarvm Christianorvm saecvli secvndi},
	Title = {Opera Ivstini indvbitata: Dialogvs cvm Tryphone Ivdaeo},
	Volume = {1,2},
	Year = {1877}}

and to use some command like \footcitecstmfld{iustini1877) where he would only cite that field and he would still recognise that this book needs to be in bibliography where he wouldn't cite that field again.

I dont know if I managed to explain this clear enough... ask if you don't understand me.

I actually managed to solve this one on myself and I am posting solution here for the others if someone some day needs it:

Code: Select all

@book{iustini1877,
	Address = {Ienae},
	Author = {{Iustinus Martyr}},
	Call-Number = {TH: Vb 6.00 2/3},
	Date-Added = {2010-02-06 12:06:48 +0100},
	Date-Modified = {2010-10-12 16:54:57 +0200},
	Edition = {3. Plvrimvm avcta et emendata},
	Editor = {Johann Carl Theodor Otto},
	Publisher = {Prostat in Libraria Hermanni Dufft},
	Series = {Corpvs Apologetarvm Christianorvm saecvli secvndi},
	Shortauthor = {Iust.},
	Shorttitle = {De Tryph.},
	Title = {Opera Ivstini indvbitata: Dialogvs cvm Tryphone Ivdaeo},
	Volume = {1,2},
	Year = {1877}}

and add this:

Code: Select all

\newcommand{\citeshort}[2][]{\footnote{\citefield{shortauthor}{#2}, \citefield{shorttitle}{#2} #1.}}
