I'm trying to have two different styles for two different bibliographies in a same document using biblatex. I'm using the keyword procedure two create those two bibliography and I found a way to define a new bibenvironement with the command \defbibenvironment and then use the command \printbibliography[env=newenvrionment, keyword=blabla].
I'm using the authoryear style for the main bibliography so I'm using those options when I charge the package:
\usepackage[language=auto,backend=biber,sorting=nyt,bibstyle=authoryear,citestyle=authortitle-icomp]{biblatex}
The propose if to define a "primary sources" environment, similar to the first one but instead of showing:
author (year) title, in journal,
I want to have:
journal (year) title, author.
I am very new in using biblatex and I don't understand how to do such a thing by using \defbibenvironment.
Otherwise, if there is another solution to use here is a compilable MWE:
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{book}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage[main=french,english]{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}

I want the second bibliography to be with the journal (date) title environment. It's using only articles.
Best Answer
As I wrote in the comment it's not possible to use a
bibenvironmentfor your purpose, sincebibenvironmentsare ment to format the bibliography list.Also biblatex doesn't provide an implemented solution to mix different bibliography styles (as far as I know), so you have to try to find a way on your own to achieve what you want.
My solution:
authoryearin your case)articleandauthor-macro in your case)This solution will (adapted) also work for more than 2 bibliography styles.
However, the weak point is, you have to take care of every difference to your default bibliography style – and in the case you want to change your default bibliography style you have to start over...
Here is your updated and commented MWE. I've deleted a lot of unnecessary (for our issue) macros / packages. It should show you the idea of my solution.
In addition to the MWE you may modify the new macros and also set up a
sortingoption in the\printbibliographycommand etc.OUTPUT:
