See update on 2013-11-12 10:26:36Z below regarding my final solution
In the American Sociological Association Style Guide. 3rd ed. (p. 2) link, PDF! it is explained and demonstrated how to cite a work that is reprinted from a version published earlier.
It should, according to the ASA guide, look like this,
I'm curious to learn if there is an official or 'proper' way of doing this using biblatex
? I have produced the above example with the code below,
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex,
style=authoryear, natbib=true,
]{biblatex}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{filecontents}{bibfile.bib}
@book{Veblen2005:1899,
Author = {Veblen, Thorstein},
Isbn = {9788187879299},
Language = {en},
Month = jan,
Publisher = {Aakar Books},
Title = {{The Theory of the Leisure Class; An Economic Study of Institutions}},
Year = {[1899] 2005}}
\end{filecontents}
\addbibresource{bibfile.bib}
\begin{document}
\noindent
\ldots \citep{Veblen2005:1899} stated that \ldots\\
\printbibliography
\end{document}

Switching backend from bibtex
to biber
, as suggested in moewe's answer below, proved to be a bit more challenging than expected as I couldn't use biber
directly from TeXShop
(Ver. 3.26 on OSX 10.8.5). However, I managed, with the help of this answer by Harish Kumar, to use arara. Thus solution did require me to add some arara-lines to the .tex file just before the \documentclass{}
and to compile my .tex file from the terminal, I've pasted my code and a screenshot below.

I'll update this answer when I learn bore about the backend and TeXShop. Please feel free to comment if you know of a better solution. Thanks.
