O alto sangue: a consciência de linhagem e os escritos de Pedro Afonso de Barcelos (século XIV): The high blood: lineage consciousness and the texts of Pedro Afonso of Barcelos (14th century)
“A man of high blood from both parts of where he came from”. With these words Pedro Afonso (1287-1354), Count of Barcelos and bastard of King Dom Dinis I (1261-1325), wrote the panegyric of Dom Mudarra – but what did this quality attributed by that Portuguese history mean? Here we explore in the count’s texts what the historian Georges Duby defined as a “consciousness of lineage”, that is, a way in which the medieval noble strata identified themselves based on their kinship ties. Our hypothesis is that the expression attributed to that noble knight “of very high blood” carried at its core a principle of historicity – in Dom Mudarra the past of his ancestors was recognized as an active agent, an honor founded in the kinship structures of that society.
Keywords: Medieval historiography. Nobility. Iberian Peninsula.“Un hombre de sangre alta de ambas partes de donde vino”. Con estas palabras Pedro Afonso (1287-1354), conde de Barcelos y bastardo del rey Dom Dinis I (1261-1325), escribió el panegírico de Dom Mudarra – pero ¿qué significaba esta cualidad atribuida por aquel historiador portugués? Aquí exploramos en los textos del conde lo que el historiador Georges Duby definió como una “conciencia de linaje”, es decir, una manera en la que los estratos nobles medievales se identificaban a partir de sus vínculos de parentesco. Nuestra hipótesis es que la expresión atribuida a ese noble caballero “de muy alta sangre” llevaba en su esencia un principio de historicidad: en Dom Mudarra el pasado de sus antepasados fue reconocido como un agente activo, un honor basado en las estructuras de parentesco de esa sociedad.

Gestas e comemorações: a experiência do tempo na oficina historiográfica de Jaime I de Aragão
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em História, Florianópolis, 2017.Entre os anos de 1268 e 1278, sob os auspícios de Jaime I de Aragão, o Conquistador (1208-1276), foram elaboradas duas obras historiográficas: a Geste dels comtes de Barcelona i reis d?Aragó e o Llibre dels Feyts. Nestes textos, a palavra latina gesta e suas equivalentes em médio catalão geste e fet designavam uma ação, uma mobilidade em contraposição a uma inércia. Elas se referiram aos grandes feitos, conquistas, batalhas e alianças, tudo que fortalecesse e elevasse a grandeza dos homens. Nosso objetivo é descortinar as estratégias que transformaram um determinado tipo de ação em um objeto à historiografia e questionar como e por que as gestas de antepassados e os feitos de um rei, foram alçados ao patamar de um monumento. Entendemos que a elaboração de memórias e a comemoração da ação nobiliárquica e régia dera continuidade a mesma ao transformá-las em monumentos a perpetuação e exaltação de seus pretensos protagonistas. A memória sobre a ação e a ação em si não estabeleciam uma contradição ? as obras de um rei só se tornaram dignos porque eram posteriormente lembradas, alçando tanto o feito quanto a memória sobre ele como reprodutores sociais do poder e autoridade régias.Abstract : Between the years of 1268 and 1278, two historiographical works were elaborated under the auspices of James I of Aragon, the Conqueror (1208-1276): the Geste dels comtes de Barcelona i reis d?Aragó and the Llibre dels Feyts. In these texts, both the latin word gesta and its equivalents in middle catalan geste and fet denoted an action, a mobility as opposed to an inertia. They referred to the great deeds, conquests, battles and alliances, all that strengthened and raised the greatness of men. Our goal is to uncover the strategies that transformed a certain type of action into an object to historiography and to question how and why the deeds of ancestors and the deeds of a king were raised to the threshold of a monument. We understand that the elaboration of memories and the commemoration of the noble and regal action had continued the same by transforming into monuments to the perpetuation and exaltation of their alleged protagonists. The memory of action and action itself did not establish a contradiction ? the works of a king only became worthy because they were later remembered, raising both the deed and the memory about him as social reproducers of royal power and authority
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
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
