    The Ambivalent Translator: On Psychoanalysis, Philology, and Translation

    No full text
    In The Interpretation of Dreams, Freud famously compared the act of interpreting a dream to the translation of a text. This metaphorical use of translation has not only had an impact on the way psychoanalysts understand their own practice, but also on translation studies or traductologie, a burgeoning interdisciplinary field since the 1970s. The metaphorical connection between the act of dream interpretation and the activity of translation has been extended in the past years, heavily relying on a psychoanalytic vocabulary in order to address the translators’ ‘unconscious’ and affective processes of ‘transference’ occurring in their work. In this vein, the translator has been characterized as a ‘rewriter’ whose stance towards the original work and its author is deeply ambivalent. This talk will problematize such theoretical transpositions by introducing a historical perspective on the figure of the ‘ambivalent translator’ in early psychoanalysis. The first model translations of Freud’s works also yield theoretical and practical insights that challenge current philological standards in translation. Andreas Mayer is a historian and sociologist of science working as a senior researcher at the CNRS and teaching at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris. In 2019/2020 he is a fellow at the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin. He has published extensively on the history of the human sciences and of psychoanalysis, most notably, Dreaming by the Book: Freud&#8217;s The Interpretation of Dreams and the History of the Psychoanalytic Movement (with Lydia Marinelli, 2003), Sites of the Unconscious: Hypnosis and the Emergence of the Psychoanalytic Setting (2013), Sigmund Freud (2016), Introduction à Sigmund Freud (2020), and The Science of Walking.

    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
