    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    No full text
    The symposium focused on war, immigration and diversity, with the aim of exploring how literature can address these global issues. The guests were Paulo Larraguel of Edicions Ekaré and Blanca Arderich, a technician from the Citizenship and Immigration Plan of the Banyoles Lake Consortium, with Karolin Kunte (lecturer at the University of Girona) as moderator. The event highlighted a university campaign to raise awareness of the horrors of war and supported a book-selling initiative, “Books Against Barbarism”, to raise funds for Palestine. Emphasis was placed on the role of books in offering diverse perspectives and fostering a critical view of society, beyond media narratives. The symposium also questioned how to address these topics in schools and encouraged active audience participation. The role of books in education is seen as essential for use in schools to teach about conflict and diversity. From an editor's point of view, it shares insights on how publishing, especially of picture books, can offer broader social perspectivesEl simposi es va centrar en la guerra, la immigració i la diversitat, amb l'objectiu d'explorar com la literatura pot abordar aquests temes globals. Els convidats van ser Paulo Larraguel, d’Edicions Ekaré, i Blanca Arderich, tècnica del Pla de ciutadania i immigració, consorci de benestar social del Pla de l’Estany de Banyolees, amb Karolin Kunte (docent de la UdG) com a moderadora. L'esdeveniment va subratllar una campanya universitària per visibilitzar els horrors de la guerra i va donar suport a una iniciativa de venda de llibres, "Llibres contra la barbàrie", per recaptar fons per a Palestina. Es va posar èmfasi en el paper dels llibres per oferir perspectives diverses i fomentar una mirada crítica sobre la societat, més enllà de les narratives mediàtiques. El simposi també va qüestionar com tractar aquests temes a les escoles i va animar a la participació activa del públic. El paper dels llibres en l'educació es percep imprescindible per a utilitzar a les escoles per ensenyar sobre el conflicte i la diversitat. Des d’un punt de vista d’editor, comparteix visions sobre com l'edició, especialment de llibres il·lustrats, pot oferir perspectives socials més àmpliesEl simposio se centró en la guerra, la inmigración y la diversidad, con el objetivo de explorar cómo la literatura puede abordar estas cuestiones globales.

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.

    ”Jeg har vært veldig pådriver selv, men har ikke sett hva som må til” : en kvalitativ studie om erfaringer med kommunebasert rehabilitering etter traumatisk hjerneskade med langvarige kognitive vansker

    No full text
    Formål: Hensikten med denne studien var å få kunnskap om informantenes erfaring med oppfølging av kommunebaserte rehabiliteringstjenester. Hva opplevdes hensiktsmessig og tilpasset deres behov etter å ha fått en traumatisk hjerneskade med langvarige kognitive vansker. Dette for å kunne bidra med innspill til hva et kommunalt rehabiliteringstilbud bør ha fokus på, og for å utfylle deler av hovedprosjektet ’5 år etter moderat og alvorlig traumatisk hjerneskade’ med kunnskap fra pasientenes perspektiv. Teoretisk forankring: Studien er forankret i et fenomenologisk perspektiv, hvor begrep fra Merleau-Pontys filosofi har vært fremtredende. Metode: Et kvalitativt design ble valgt. Det ble gjennomført semistrukturerte dybdeintervjuer med 7 personer rekruttert fra en 5 års longitudinell oppfølgingsstudie av pasienter med moderat til alvorlig traumatisk hjerneskade. En fenomenologisk innfallsvinkel er brukt for å analysere det transkriberte materialet via meningsfortetting, koding, kategorisering og kondensering. Resultat: Tre hoveddimensjoner fra informantenes uttalelser trådte frem gjennom analysene. Det handlet om nødvendig assistanse til egen innsats, vansker uten synlig løsning for informantene og viktigheten av å være i aktivitet. Konklusjon: Det synes gunstig med en fast kontaktperson med kunnskap om hjerneskade som kan følge personen over lang tid, både for å bearbeide indre, følelsesmessige prosesser, men også som støttespiller i rehabiliteringsprosessen og i møtet med det kommunale rehabiliteringsapparatet. En relasjonell tilnærming til personens rehabiliteringsprosess kan utfylle den tradisjonelle ekspertrollen på en nødvendig måte. Prosessen med å vende tilbake til arbeidslivet ser ut til å kreve innarbeiding av gode mestringsstrategier, tilrettelegging av arbeidsoppgaver og tilpasset arbeidstid over en lengre periode for å lykkes

What was perceived as appropriate and tailored to their specific needs after having suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) with longterm cognitive problems. Such knowledge might give information about what communitybased rehabilitation services should focus on, and also to complement parts of the main project '5 years after moderate and severe traumatic brain injury' with knowledge from patients' perspective. Theory: This study is based on a phenomenological perspective, where the terminology from Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy has been prominent. Methods: This study utilized a qualitative design. Seven participants were recruited from a 5- year longitudinal follow-up study of patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury. Data collection entailed in-depth semi-structured interviews. A phenomenological approach was used to analyze the transcribed material through coding, categorization and condensation. Results: Three main dimensions of the informants' statements were identified to describe the experience of the community-based rehabilitation services. These were named: necessary support to their own efforts, difficulties without an apparent solution (for the respondents), and the importance of being engaged in meaningful activities. Conclusion: The informants expressed the importance of having a regular supervisor with expert knowledge about traumatic brain injury that may support the person with brain injury over a longer period of time. A supervisor might support the processing of emotional reactions following the injury and also support the rehabilitation process in general as well as be a facilitator in the meeting with the local rehabilitation services. A relational approach to the person's rehabilitation process can complement the traditional expert role held by health professionals, in an essential way. The process of returning to work after TBI seems to require the incorporation of good coping strategies, a careful organization of the specific tasks required and working hours adapted to the capacity of the individual. Strategies to support return to work after TBI should preferably be explored to a greater extent

    Author in Essay by I. A. Goncharov “Pepiniere”

    No full text
    Features of the embodiment of the author’s position in the essay by I. A. Goncharov “Pepiniere” are considered. The relevance of the study is due to the poorly studied poetics of this work. A review of the scientific literature on relevant topics is performed. Methodological and theoretical definitions are given. The scientific novelty of the article is in the fact that for the first time attention is paid to artistic techniques that allow to identify the author's position in the specified literary text. The author of the article grounds her opinion from the fact that, despite the dominance of the subjective point of view, other characters’ views stand out in the work. It is concluded in the study that the text of the work represents a biographical author and author-creator. It was established that the position of the author-creator is expressed through the title, epigraphs, which are quotes, as well as through different points of view, including the author-character, the author-narrator, the characters of the work. The author of the article dwells in detail on different ways of expressing the points of view of the author-character and the author-narrator. It is proved that the point of view of the author-character and the author-narrator can intersect, they are interchanged. The author's development of the term comic “point of view” is presented in the article

    Espai i identitat en l'obra de Jordi Pere Cerdà. Una geografia literària cerdaniana

    No full text
    L'obra de l'autor nord-català Jordi Pere Cerdà (1920-2011) teixeix una cartografia literària que abasta tota dimensió espacial -real, imaginada i ficcional. Les prospeccions que assagen els seus texts es fonen en el medi natural i rural, canten a l'amor, als veïns i als éssers fantàstics del folklore català, es comprometen amb els refugiats encarant-se a tota frontera i, també, a tot abisme interior i exterior que oprimesca l'ésser. El mapatge cognitiu i literari que crea Cerdà sobrepassa qualsevol obstacle per construir espais oberts i possibles, en comunió amb l'altre. Partint d'una aproximació teòrica geocrítica, aquest treball d'investigació aprofundeix en diverses nocions sobre l'espacialitat lligades a un context convuls, ple de transformacions a nivell socioeconòmic, polític, cultural i lingüístic, el qual determinarà la vida d'un autor i d'un territori transfronterer com el de la Cerdanya i la Catalunya del Nord. En definitiva, la rica experiència vital de Jordi Pere Cerdà ens permet reflexionar sobre les relacions que vulguem establir entre els individus i amb el nostre hàbitat natural i cultural, a fi d'esdevenir membres actius que participen de la transformació dels espais que configuren les nostres identitats.The work of the North Catalan author Jordi Pere Cerdà (1920-2011) weaves a literary cartography which reaches all spatial dimensions -real, imagined and fictional. The prospections proved by their texts merge with the natural and rural environment, sing to love, neighbours and the fantastic beings of the Catalan folklore. Such prospections also commit themselves with the refugees facing every frontier and, also, facing all interior and exterior abyss that oppresses the being. The cognitive and literary mapping created by Cerdà overcomes any obstacle to construct opened and possible spaces, in communion with the other. Based on the theoretical approach called geocriticism, this research study delves into various notions about spatiality linked to a convulsive context, full of transformations at a socioeconomic, political, cultural and linguistic level; these transformations will determine the life of an author and a cross-border territory such as Cerdagne and Northern Catalonia. In short, the rich experience of Jordi Pere Cerdà allows us to reflect on the relationships we want to establish between individuals, as well as between human groups and our natural and cultural habitat, in order to become active members that participate in the transformation of the spaces that make up our identities.Programa de Doctorat en Llengües Aplicades, Literatura i Traducci

    Treball Final de Grau en Mestre o Mestra d'Educació Primària (Pla de 2018). Codi: MP1840. Curs acadèmic: 2021/2022El treball de fi de grau que aneu a veure a continuació, és un projecte que consisteix en com es poden treballar a les aules de primària els llibres de l’autora i il·lustradora Olga de Dios. Tractant de treballar el llibre com a objecte artístic a nivell elemental. A més, de presentar a l’autora i il·lustradora, donarla a conèixer i veure els valors que transmet, també llegiríem quatre de les seues obres a l’aula com són: “Leotolda”, “En familia”, “Rana de Tres Ojos”, i “Pájaro Amarillo”. Tot açò sumat a la realització d’un quadern de classe on es colorejaria alguns dels seus personatges de les obres seguint pautes a nivell curricular. Realitzaríem també una eixida a la biblioteca municipal, on a banda de rebre una educació no formal, ens facilitaria una mica el fet d’endinsar-nos al món de la il·lustració infantil, on allí dins, el professional encarregat ens guiarà pels llibres que hi haurà a la biblioteca. I, per a concloure, elaboraríem un llibre creat per l’alumnat on seguint unes pautes establertes per Olga de Dios al seu llibre “Leotolda” buscaríem fer una retroalimentació intentant contactar amb ella. D’aquesta manera tancaríem el cicle que vam començar donant-la a conèixer com a escriptora i il·lustradora, i exploraríem on està el límit de la creativitat del propi alumnat.The final degree project you are going to see below is a project that looks at how books by author and illustrator Olga de Dios can be worked on in primary school classrooms. Considering the book as an artistic object at an elementary level. Besides presenting the author and illustrator, introducing her, and seeing the values she transmits, we would also read four of her works in the classroom, such as: "Leotolda”, "In the family", "Three-Eyed Frog", and "Yellow Bird.". All this, in addition to the creation of a class notebook in which some of his characters from her work would be colored following guidelines at the curricular level. We would also go out to the local library, where in addition to receiving a non-formal education, it would make it a little easier for us to enter the world of children's illustration, where inside, the professional in charge will guide us through the books which will be in the library. And, to conclude, we would make a book created by the students, where following some guidelines established by Olga de Dios in her book "Leotolda" we would look for feedback by trying to contact her. In this way, we would close the cycle that we started by presenting her as an author and illustrator, and we would explore where the limit of creativity of the students themselves is
