    I "Sepolcri" e "Le Grazie": Foscolo e un'idea di 'nazione'

    No full text
    Il contributo ripercorre le tappe principali attraverso le quali Foscolo andò costituendo il suo progetto politico tra il 1803 e il 1813. Dopo il 1803, infatti (con la svolta 'autoritaria' di Bonaparte e la reintroduzione della censura sulla stampa nella Repubblica italiana), l'autore cominciò a riflettere sulla difficoltà di instillare ai cittadini (poi sudditi) di una 'nazione italiana' che provava a nascere un'idea di appartenenza e la consapevolezza di potersi richiamare ad una grande tradizione culturale e artistica, unico vero elemento unificante. A questo progetto risultano legati sia la composizione e la pubblicazione del celebre carme "Dei Sepolcri" sia il piano complessivo delle "Grazie", un testo composto secondo i canoni dell'inno mimetico alla maniera di Callimaco e sostenuto da una visione profondamente politica.The contribution retraces the main stages through which Foscolo established his political project between 1803 and 1813. After 1803, in fact (with the 'authoritarian' turning point of Bonaparte and the reintroduction of press censorship in the Italian Republic), the author began to reflect on the difficulty of instilling in the citizens (later subjects) of an 'Italian nation' that was trying to create an idea of belonging and the awareness of being able to refer to a great cultural and artistic tradition, the only true unifying element. To this project are linked both the composition and the publication of the famous poem "Dei Sepolcri" and the overall plan of "Le Grazie", a text composed according to the canons of the mimetic hymn in the manner of Callimachus and supported by a deep political vision

    Il contributo si compone di due parti: nella prima parte è messo in rilievo l'impegno civile e politico che informa l'intera opera di Ugo Foscolo, dagli scritti giovanili fino ai contributi di critica letteraria e storica pubblicati durante l'esilio in Inghilterra; nella seconda parte si dà notizia di alcune lettere inedite dell'epistolario foscoliano del biennio 1826-1827, che riguardano i rapporti del poeta con la famiglia Holland, Giovanni Capodistria, Νikólaos Píkkolos e il suo progetto di ritornare nelle Isole Ionie. Chiude lo scritto un'ampia nota bibliografica. Traduzione in greco di Dimitris D. Arvanitakis.The contribution consists of two parts. The first part emphasizes Ugo Foscolo’s civil and political commitment, from his youth writings to his late articles of historical or literary criticism that he published in England in the 1820s. The second part focuses on several unpublished letters of Foscolo dating from the years 1826-1827: they concern the poet's relations with the Holland family, Giovanni Capodistria, Νikólaos Píkkolos, and Foscolo’s plan to return to the Ionian Islands.

    MeSH term explosion and author rank improve expert recommendations

    Information overload is an often-cited phenomenon that reduces the productivity, efficiency and efficacy of scientists. One challenge for scientists is to find appropriate collaborators in their research. The literature describes various solutions to the problem of expertise location, but most current approaches do not appear to be very suitable for expert recommendations in biomedical research. In this study, we present the development and initial evaluation of a vector space model-based algorithm to calculate researcher similarity using four inputs: 1) MeSH terms of publications; 2) MeSH terms and author rank; 3) exploded MeSH terms; and 4) exploded MeSH terms and author rank. We developed and evaluated the algorithm using a data set of 17,525 authors and their 22,542 papers. On average, our algorithms correctly predicted 2.5 of the top 5/10 coauthors of individual scientists. Exploded MeSH and author rank outperformed all other algorithms in accuracy, followed closely by MeSH and author rank. Our results show that the accuracy of MeSH term-based matching can be enhanced with other metadata such as author rank

    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

    "Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"

    No full text
    Both spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    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
