Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

Zakon krzyżacki wobec Polski i Litwy w latach 1411–1414
The Teutonic Order’s attitude towards Poland and Lithuania in the years 1411–1414 The „eternal peace” between Poland, Lithuania and the Teutonic Order, ratified on 10 May 1411, turned out to be an extremely impermanent agreement. The first symptoms of a crisis appeared already in September of the same year, when at a session held in Kujawy, a mixed court of arbitration decided that the Polish-Lithuanian side strives toward a revision of the Toruń agreements. The Order reacted instantly by implementing a military draft action and striking up a cooperation with the King of Rome as well as the Hungarian King Sigismund of Luxemburg who from the very beginning contested the Toruń truce. The author of the article analyzes minutely the diplomatic efforts of all sides of the conflict as well as the propaganda campaign of the Order and the simultaneous preparations to a new war which had led to the removal of Henry von Plauen from the post of the Grand Master. The Order’s return to the negotiation table, did not put an end to the threat of an armed conflict, as Poland had presented a maximum program of territorial claims, sygnalizing clearly that it is not interested in negotiations. Ultimately in July 1414, Ladislaus Jagiello and Alexander Witold had sent warning letters to Malbork, thereby initiating the so called hunger war. The events of 1411–1414 had shown that the Teutonic Order was at that becoming to an increasing extent the subject, and not the object of international policy
