A paper which cites one or two sources at most, not pretending to do anything more than condense the work of another author and put entirely unoriginal thoughts forward. Hence the list of citations is almost entirely "Ibid., Ibid., Ibid., Ibid..."
e.g.
1 Mowinckel, S. p. 3
2 Ibid. p.3
3 Ibid. p.3
4 Ibid. p.4
5 Ibid. p.3

"Last week's tute was my third Ibid essay in a row. I can't be bothered to read more than one book a week."
