Parrasio allo Studium Urbis: la praefatio alle silvae di Stazio
In this article the author provides a critical edition, with commentary, of the praefatio
to Publius Papinius Statius’ silvae composed by the humanist Aulus Ianus Parrhasius.
The text, which is preserved in ms. V D 15 of the Biblioteca Nazionale Vittorio Emanuele III,
Naples, dates from the period of Parrhasius’s second stay in Rome (1514-1518). It provides
information about the scholars connected with Pomponius Letus and illuminates
both Statius’ reception in the Renaissance and teaching practices in the first half of the
16th century
EXCERPTA DI PARRASIO DA EPISTOLE DI PIER CANDIDO DECEMBRIO NEL MANOSCRITTO XIII. B. 19 DELLA BIBLIOTECA NAZIONALE DI NAPOLI
Sono pubblicati gli excerpta contenuti nelle carte finali del ms. XIII. B. 19 della Biblioteca Nazionale di Napoli (a. 1509): gli estratti, autografi di Aulo Giano Parrasio, non sono prelievi da Plutarco, come si credeva, ma passi estrapolati da alcune lettere di Pier Candido Decembrio relativi a questioni esegetiche, in particolar modo sulle biografie plutarchee.
In this paper are published the excerpta contained in the final part of ms. Neap. XIII. B. 19 (1509): the excerpts, autographs of Aulus Ianus Parrhasius, are not taken from Plutarch, as believed up to now, but from letters of Petrus Candidus Decembrius, concerning exegetical problems, especially about Plutarchʼs Lives
Notabilia, repertori onomastico-geografici e pubblicazioni erudite dell’umanista Aulo Giano Parrasio
The Italian Humanist Aulus Ianus Parrhasius (1470-1521/1522) wrote a work
entitled De rebus per epistolam quaesitis, which is a collection of his emendations to
the Greek and Latin classical texts. Parrhasius’ work is based on preparatory studies,
which can be observed in some MSS of his collection of books, now preserved
mostly at the National Library of Naples. In particular, the article will focus on
two MSS, containing respectively an endless list of geographical names (MS. BNN
XIIIB.11) and one of proper names of important figures of the Greek and Roman
history (BNN V.D.3). For each item of the list both the MSS accumulated a series
of ancient sources. As we shall show, Parrhasius took from the two repository MSS
the set of sources which were quoted by him in the De rebus per epistolam quaesitis
La presenza di Omero nella biblioteca e nelle opere di Aulo Giano Parrasio
The humanist Aulus Ianus Parrhasius (1470-1521) had a large library, which is partially preserved. The most part of his books are today at the National library of Naples. Through the catalogues of his books and the quotations in his works, we can assume that Parrhasius studied intensively the two epic poems of Homer and that he had probably a collection of ca. ten books related to Homer (Greek texts, Latins translations, commentaries and his notes). Today, the corpus of Homeric texts belonged to Parrhasius, which we can trace, is very small and not representative of his interests in Homer (for instance, we do not know any book of the Odyssey in Greek, which we can attribute to Parrhasius). Nevertheless, the quotations of Homer in his works testify a careful study of the ancient poet. Thus, in his commentary on Aen. 1-2, Parrhasius notes all the Virgilian passages where Homer was Virgil’s model for style, expressions, descriptions, customs of the heroes and mythology
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
