Landmark : The Paintings of Robert Houle and John Abrams
No full text"John Abrams and Robert Houle have built their artistic practices around painting aspects of the Canadian imagination. For each, the landscape of Canada has been defined through political association. Issues of identity are solidified through place and history, yet the concepts have been altered. Rather than posting an objectified and legitimizing history, Abrams and Houle propose remembrance as the source of historical associations.
Landmark includes five painting installations (two by Abrams, three by Houle) that are comprised of panels, canvases and graphic elements. Both Houle and Abrams mount their composite paintings in mappings on the museum wall. Houle uses colour-field abstraction and photographic elements in his eloquent compositions. Abrams paints iconic depictions of the landscape and pulls images from Canadian history books in his bill-board scale assemblies of paintings." -- Absolutearts website
Storytelling, women's authority and the 'Old-Wife's Tale': 'The Story of the Bottle of Medicine'
No full textThe focus of this article is a single personal narrative – a Shetland woman’s telling of a story about two girls on a journey to fetch a cure for a sick relative from a wise woman. The story is treated as a cultural document which offers the historian a conduit to a past that is respectful of indigenous woman-centred interpretations of how that past was experienced and understood. The ‘story of the bottle of medicine’ is more than a skilful telling of a local tale; it is a memory practice that provides a path to a deeper and more nuanced understanding of a culture. Applying perspectives from anthropology, oral history and narrative analysis, three sets of questions are addressed: the issue of authenticity; the significance of the narrative structure and storytelling strategies employed; and the nature of the female performance. Ultimately the article asks what this story can tell us about women’s interpretation of their own history

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
