Luis A. Calvo, su música y su tiempo
Full text linkEl presente trabajo constituye una biografía histórica centrada en la figura del compositor colombiano Luis Antonio Calvo (1882-1945). Se trata de una investigación interdisciplinar en la que se combinan elementos metodológicos y epistemológicos de la historia cultural, la etnografía y la musicología, con el ánimo de desarrollar cuatro líneas de indagación y de análisis: la reconstrucción de la historia de vida de Luis A. Calvo, el cuestionamiento de la forma en que se ha erigido su imagen histórica, la caracterización de su obra musical, y la utilización de su caso como ventana hacia el estudio de temas más amplios relacionados con la historia cultural y social en Colombia en la primera mitad del siglo XX, entre ellos, la introducción de las industrias del disco y la radio, el gusto estético y los mecanismos de popularización de contenidos musicales, y el debate sobre la definición de la música nacional.Abstract.The following study is a historical biography of the Colombian composer Luis Antonio Calvo (1882-1945). It is the result of an interdisciplinary approach inspired in methodological and epistemological models from cultural history, ethnography and musicology, encouraged by the interest of developing four main objectives: the reconstruction of the history of life of Luis A. Calvo, the questioning of the way in which his historical image has been established, the musicological analysis of his musical work, and the utilization of his case as a window for the study of wider aspects related to the cultural and social history of Colombia during the first half of the XX century, such as the introduction of records and radio stations, the aesthetics and popularization of musical products, and the debates around the establishment of nationalism in music.Maestrí
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Luis A. Calvo Intermezzos
No full textSe dice que la metodología es el modo estructurado y ordenado de obtener un resultado, descubrir la verdad y sistematizar los conocimientos. En consecuencia en esta parte del texto presentó de manera sintética la forma en que se fue construyendo este trabajo y el modo en que se sistematizó la información encontrada a partir del conocimiento sustantivo de la formación musical que he recibido en la Facultad. Sin pretender realizar un trabajo de corte histórico para el desarrollo de este trabajo se buscó ubicar las tendencias y contra tendencias de pensamiento que primaban en la época e identificar los agentes institucionales y sociales que configuraban el pensamiento y las ideas de finales del siglo XIX y comienzos del XX, período en el cual Luis A. Calvo desarrolla su obra musical. Esta labor implicó la identificación y revisión de diferentes fuentes documentales y el examen detallado de material audiovisual en bibliotecas y centros de documentación. A partir de la recopilación biográfica de Luis A. Calvo, pude seleccionar información de carácter político, económico y cultural que me llevó a investigar de entrada la legislación de la época en particular los decretos expedidos entre 1904 y 1905, los cuales brindan información acerca de Instituciones musicales, sueldos de los empleados de estas instituciones, y las primeras leyes encaminadas al trato de la lepra. Posteriormente, la recopilación de partituras me permitió observar que algunas de ellas habían sido editadas en periódicos y revistas, por lo que me remití a la hemeroteca de la Biblioteca Nacional en búsqueda de dichas partituras, estando en esto pude reunir información sobre la actividad musical en cafés y bares, y una serie de artículos relacionados con el compositor y con el movimiento nacionalista
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
