No full textIl contributo illustra le relazioni tra suono e immagini nel documentario di Emmer "Romantici a Venezia" (1947) e nella sua versione francese di poco successiva, con testo di Jean Cocteau, "Venise et ses amants", che si avvalgono delle musiche di Roman Vlad
Introduzione

La prospettiva di Sylvano Bussotti nella ricezione novecentesca di Monteverdi
No full textIl fascino esercitato dalla figura e dalla musica di Claudio Monteverdi emerge a più riprese nella produzione di Sylvano Bussotti. In Lorenzaccio (Venezia, Teatro La Fenice, 1972) e nell’Ispirazione (Firenze, Teatro Comunale, 1988), l’inserimento di due citazioni tratte dall’Orfeo rappresenta un palese omaggio all’arte monteverdiana. Con la regia dell’Incoronazione di Poppea (Treviso, Teatro Comunale, 1975), Bussotti mette in campo le sue eccezionali doti di artista poliedrico, servendosi della collaborazione di Tono Zancanaro per realizzare un allestimento che ha segnato la storia delle riprese moderne del capolavoro seicentesco. La sua trascrizione dell’episodio della morte di Seneca, tratto dalla stessa opera (Francoforte, Alte Oper, 1991), mostra infine il suo rinnovato interesse per il teatro di Monteverdi. Attraverso la ricognizione della letteratura esistente e del materiale d’archivio relativi ai suddetti lavori, il saggio traccia un quadro della ricezione monteverdiana nella produzione di Bussotti.Sylvano Bussotti was very fascinated by the figure and music of Claudio Monteverdi throughout all his life. An evident homage to the composer are two quotations in Lorenzaccio (Venice, Teatro La Fenice, 1972) and L’ispirazione (Florence, Teatro Comunale, 1988) from L’Orfeo. During the staging of L’incoronazione di Poppea (Treviso, Teatro Comunale, 1975) Bussotti shows his extraordinary endowment as opera director, costume and set designer. Collaborating with Tono Zancanaro, he realizes a performance that is today remembered in the history of the modern revivals of the baroque masterpiece. His following transcription of the episode of Seneca’s death from L’incoronazione di Poppea (Frankfurt, Alte Oper, 1991) shows his renovated interest in Monteverdi’s last opera. With the support of literature and archival material concerning the aforementioned works, the essay outlines Monteverdi’s reception in Bussotti’s output
Emblema epocale, artefice esemplare, autorità legittimante: Claudio Monteverdi nel pensiero di Luigi Nono
No full textBasandosi sulle occorrenze del nome di Monteverdi nell'archivio di Luigi Nono – comprendente fonti musicali, corrispondenze, scritti, libri e registrazioni – questo capitolo ricostruisce tre aspetti chiave dell'influenza di Monteverdi sul pensiero compositivo di Nono. Questi aspetti riguardano l’esplorazione dello spazio performativo da parte di Nono, il suo coinvolgimento con specifiche opere e progetti di Monteverdi, e le sue riflessioni su una 'nuova retorica' della musica. L’analisi colloca questi risultati all'interno della strategia di auto-legittimazione di Nono, illuminando come l'eredità di Monteverdi abbia contribuito alla costruzione dell’identità e della reputazione artistica di Nono.Based on occurrences of Monteverdi's name in Luigi Nono’s archive – encompassing musical sources, correspondence, writings, books, and recordings – this chapter reconstructs three key aspects of Monteverdi’s influence on Nono’s compositional thought. These aspects relate to Nono’s exploration of performative space, his engagement with specific works and projects by Monteverdi, and his reflections on a 'new rhetoric' of music. The analysis refers these findings to Nono’s strategy of self-legitimation, shedding light on how Monteverdi's legacy contributed to the building of Nono's artistic identity and reputation
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
