    v. 1 [Novel] 5251 -- v. 2 [Exegesis] 5251: the short story cycle and the representation of a named placeThe thesis comprises a work of fiction, ‘5251’, in the form of a short story cycle, and an exegesis, ‘The Short Story Cycle and the Representation of a Named Place’. The components of the thesis are intended to mirror Susan Mann’s defining ‘essential characteristic’ of the cycle genre: they are both self-sufficient and interrelated (15). Together, they illuminate and contextualise one another. ‘5251’ locates its thirteen stories within the postcode area of Mount Barker, a regional town on the outskirts of Adelaide, South Australia. Setting is employed as a framing device, as developed by cycle writers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Place is an explicit connection between the stories, but implicit connections are also explored, in the spaces between the stories, to examine contemporary themes including individual isolation and alienation, middle class aspiration, land politics, gender and family. Michelle Pacht’s argument, that the cycle genre’s ‘unique generic makeup’ enables writers to explore and express subtle and subversive ideas (6), informs the creative work and is discussed in the exegesis. The exegesis outlines and interrogates the journey of the short story writer in discovering the extended form offered by the short story cycle, described by James Nagel as the ‘most neglected and misunderstood of the major genres’ (246). It also explores the opportunities and tensions that arrive when a creative writer engages with theories that challenge personal concepts of artistic vision and the realities of the publishing marketplace. Mount Barker can be found on Google Maps but its representation is born from the fictive imagination and engaged with the notion of ‘referential field’, as described by Wolfgang Iser; setting is not only place but also the effect of place (40). The exegesis explores the interplay of ‘space’ and ‘place’ in literary representations that utilise the short story cycle. In this regard, the work of Silvia Ross and Eric Prieto is considered, in so far as they draw upon spatial theorists Lewis Holloway, Phil Hubbard, Bertrand Westphal and Robert T. Tally Jr. in their understandings of representations of place in literature. Geocriticism and textual mapping are also explored. Sherwood Anderson’s rendering of a fictitious town in Winesburg, Ohio (1919) and Belle Boggs’ representation of specific areas in America’s Virginia, in Mattaponi Queen (2010) are both discussed as useful templates for literary representation of place. The exegesis argues that Mattaponi Queen, although marketed as a collection of short stories, is more appropriately read as a short story cycle.Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Humanities, 2015

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Get PDF
    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
