How do I cite a source that uses another source within?

Asked by JonnyCeltics (2721points) December 2nd, 2010

For example, if I am reading a text on Post-modernism by Author X, and Author X quotes Author Y within the text, and I want to quote the section from Author Y without wanting to find the source text (Author Y’s), how would I do that (MLA or Chicago, or really wharves, just in general)? Would I even need to quote Author Y?
