    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

    Full text link
    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

    La pittura di età angioina a Capri e i suoi legami con la terraferma

    No full text
    Alcuni recenti restauri e il fortuito rinvenimento nel 2010 di un arcosolio dipinto nella chiesa di Sant’Anna a Capri incoraggiano oggi una riconsiderazione del ruolo che l’isola svolse nel panorama artistico campano di età angioina. L’analisi delle testimonianze superstiti permette di eleggere questo lembo di terra al ruolo di “inedito” laboratorio in cui poter seguire e valutare la diffusione e l’attecchimento di specifiche tipologie decorative, l’adattamento e l’uso dei modelli, la circolazione delle maestranze, l’evoluzione del gusto e le ambizioni della committenza. Ciò che emerge è la mancanza di un indirizzo unitario e la qualità discontinua delle opere, affidate nella prima metà del Trecento a maestranze cavalliniane “senza nome”, alle quali seguirono, nella seconda metà del secolo, autori – con l’eccezione del responsabile della lunetta sul portale della certosa – di minore forza espressiva, esponenti di tendenze comunque sempre rintracciabili in altri centri della Campania
