Cite using Harvard

You treat all translated works the same way regardless of publication type.  You credit the translator or translators in the reference list entry by using the abbreviation “Trans.” in front of the translator’s name placing both the abbreviation and name after the title of the work (but before the period). 

In in-text citations you include the name of the author and year of publication of the translated work you have read.
