    Full text link
    The Sutra entitled Altun Yaruq Sudur, translated from Chinese into Old Uyghur by Beš Balıqlı Şi?ko Šäli Tutu?, has been the subject of numerous studies. It is a sutra belonging to Mahayana Buddhism and contains the foundations, philosophy, anecdotes and rituals of the Buddhism. After the bibliography prepared by Simone-Christiane Raschmann and Ablet Semet in 2007 and the chronological bibliography published by Erdem Uçar in 2013, several studies on the Sutra have been published. Therefore, it is necessary to update the bibliography of works on Altun Yaruq Sudur. The compiled bibliography includes works published until 2023.The Sutra entitled Altun Yaruq Sudur, translated from Chinese into Old Uyghur by Beš Balıqlı Şi?ko Šäli Tutu?, has been the subject of numerous studies.

    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

    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
