The Butch Monologues: Performance as a Bridge from “Border Wars” to “Playground”
No full textIn this chapter Alyson Campbell looks at The Butch Monologues (TBM) by Libro Levi (Doc) Bridgeman, directed by JulieMc McNamara (Mack) (2013–present). Based mainly on an interview with the writer and director, and Campbell’s own multiple viewings of the work, the chapter examines how the collection and, more precisely, the productions of it, make an intervention into this very painful contemporary context, and history, of ‘“border wars’ between butch lesbians and trans men” (Mackay in J Lesbian Stud 23:399, 2019b; and see Halberstam, 1998). It is suggested that TBM manage to blur these borders, or at least niggle this negative framing, and Campbell argues that the stories it tells are more relevant than ever, given this current tension

Locating Care in curating queer performance in Belfast and Manchester:Gemma Hutton and Greg Thorpe, interviewed by Alyson Campbell, Meta Cohen and Stephen Farrier
No full textAn interview with Gemma Hutton and Greg Thorpe, queer performance makers and activists in Belfast and Manchester, respectively. Published in Interventions, the online Open Access site connected with Contemporary Theatre Review.
The interview is part of the work undertaken by Alyson Campbell and Stephen Farrier as co-editors of a special edition of Contemporary Theatre Review (33.1-2), called What’s Queer about Queer Performance now?
In the interview we ask Gemma and Greg what is queer work in the particular context in which they make it. We talk about who’s making queer performance, who’s watching it, and how’s that happening, and about what they think the future of queer performance might be, what it might look like and what it might do. For both, questions of care in the context of queer performance communities was foremost in their work
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
