Garapan 60 sajak ini menyerlahkan deraan yang dihadapi dan keindahan yang dinikmati untuk terus meredah kehidupan. Asiah Sarji berpegang kepada analogi ini "Hidup ini perlu diredah". "Diredah dengan segala kekuatan." "Kekuatan perlu dicari dan diberi erti". Kumpulan sajak dalam naskhah Redah ini dibahagikan kepada lima kumpulan yang diberi judul ‘Darah Daging’, ‘Terasa’, ‘Laki-laki’,‘Redah’ dan ‘Tidak Mudah Menyerah’

    No full text
    Seminar Raja Melayu (SIRaj) 2013 telah dianjurkan oleh Universiti Malaysia Perlis pada 5-6 Jun 2013 bertempat di Lanai Kijang, Bank Negara Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur.Media telah dikenali selepas Perang Dunia Pertama sebagai alat penguasaan minda yang sangat efektif bagi semua kelompok masyarakat dunia dalam menyampaikan mesej sama ada di Amerika Syarikat mahupun di negara-negara lain di Eropah, khususnya penyiaran radio. Ini kerana penyiaran radio tidak memerlukan celik huruf untuk mendekati dan menghayati kandungannya. Kertas ini memaparkan hasil kajian yang dilakukan terhadap penyiaran radio sewaktu zaman Jepun dalam konteks memperkasakan agama Islam dan adat Melayu di sepanjang tempoh pendudukan tentera Jepun (PTJ) dari tahun 1942-1945. Kertas ini menggunakan hasil kajian tersebut bagi mengesan sejauhmanakah keputusan persidangan raja-raja Melayu yang dianjurkan oleh pihak Pentadbiran Tentera Jepun (PTJ) yang diadakan di Singapura dalam tahun 1943 diaplikasi melalui radio yang ditadbirkan oleh pihak PTJ. Landasan kajian ini adalah pertama, negara Jepun melalui stesen radionya, NHK, memang melaksanakan fungsi pembangunan dalam pendekatan, penerbitan dan penyiaran rancangan-rancangannya. Kedua, hampir semua kajian-kajian lalu menunjukkan bahawa dasar PTJ terhadap orang Melayu adalah positif berbanding dengan bangsa-bangsa lain. Persoalan pertama kajian ini adalah sejauhmanakah institusi raja-raja pada waktu itu mempengaruhi pentadbir penyiaran radio dalam strategi penyiaran rancangan-rancangan yang berkaitan dengan agama Islam dan adat istiadat Melayu. Persoalan lain adalah adakah sikap PTJ terhadap raja-raja Melayu itu mempengaruhi pembentukan dan penyiaran rancangan-rancangan berbahasa Melayu, Islam dan adat istiadat melalui Radio Shonan yang ditadbirkan oleh PTJ. Hasil kajian dan analisis yang dibuat mendapati dasar PTJ terhadap rajaraja Melayu mempunyai landasan yang kukuh dalam konteks penghormatan terhadap sistem raja. Walaupun dalam banyak keadaan, landasan sikap ini bertentangan dengan pendekatan penaklukan yang cuba dilaksanakan yang mana akhirnya dalam tahun 1943-1944 sikap ini terserlah yang mempamerkan bahawa pemerintah kerajaan Jepun mempunyai sikap yang positif dan menghormati institusi ini khususnya yang berkaitan dengan kuasa terhadap pengurusan agama Islam dan adat istiadat Melayu. Kenyataan ini disokong dengan data mengenai penyiaran rancangan berbahasa Melayu, penyertaan orang Melayu dalam penyiaran serta kekerapan menyiarkan rancangan-rancangan berunsur Islam yang didapati jauh lebih tinggi daripada rancangan berbahasa lain terutamanya dalam tahun 1943 dan 1944. Rumusannya ialah terdapat keselarian yang strategik antara sikap PTJ terhadap institusi raja-raja dengan kandungan rancangan-rancangan radio yang ditadbirkan oleh PTJ sepanjang tempoh Perang Dunia Kedua itu

    Malaysian national cinema : an identity crisis? / Asiah Sarji

    No full text
    Of late, issues of national cinema have sparked much debates and discourses in the context of Malaysian cinema. Nonetheless, the definition(s) and conception(s) of what constitutes a "Malaysian film" remain vague and unclear. There is to date still insufficient critical analysis examining how popular discourses of nationalism and national identities have shaped the development of the Malaysian film industry. This essay attempts to investigate and propose what constitutes a "Malaysian" film, arguing for the protection of a national cinema and acknowledging the critical role that films play in the process of national idealism

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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
