Diálogo, modernização e conflito: uma biografia do cardeal Dom Avelar Brandão Vilela
No full textThis thesis is a biography of Cardinal Don Avelar Brandão Vilela (b.1912 - d. 1986). This prelate stood out in the religious and political stages of Brazil and Latin America during middle and late 20th century. The archbishop was active during Brazilian Military Dictatorship (1964-1985). Even in this radicalization period, he managed to dialogue with many sections of society and Catholic Church, becoming a moderator of social and political conflicts. He also stimulated the changes that Catholic Church was passing through during 1950's; these changes were legitimated by Second Vatican Ecumenical Council (1962-1965). D. Avelar was an important Latin American moderniser bishop and presided the Conference of Latin American Bishops, held in 1968, that marked Latin American Catholic Church historyEsta tese é uma biografia do Cardeal Dom Avelar Brandão Vilela (1912-1986). Este prelado se destacou no cenário religioso e político do Brasil e da América Latina durante a segunda metade do século XX. O arcebispo atuou muito tempo durante uma Ditadura Militar (1964-1985). Mesmo neste momento de radicalização, ele procurou dialogar com os vários setores da sociedade e da Igreja Católica se tornando um moderador dos conflitos sociais e políticos. Ele também estimulou as mudanças que a Igreja Católica estava passando durante a década de 1950, que foram legitimadas pelo Concílio Ecumênico do Vaticano II (1962-1965). D. Avelar foi um importante bispo modernizador latino-americano e presidiu a II Conferência Episcopal Latino Americana, em 1968, que marcou a história da Igreja Católica Latino-american

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Mineral nutrition of vegetables crops: XXII. nutritional differences between sweet-pepper varieties, Avelar and Ikeda
No full textO presente trabalho teve como objetivos, estudar comparativamente aspectos da nutrição mineral das variedades de pimentão, Avelar e Ikeda, no que concerne: a) ao efeito da omissão e presença dos macronutrientes, no crescimento das plantas; b) às quantidades de macronutrientes absorvidos durante o crescimento das plantas; c) à sensibilidade a deficiências minerais. Plantas de pimentão, das variedades Avelar e Ikeda foram cultivadas em vaso contendo silica. Aos sessenta dias de idade foram submetidas aos tratamentos, que constaram do cultivo de plantas em solução nutritiva completa e omitindo um macronutriente por vez. As mesmas variedades foram também cultivadas em condições de campo, coletando-se amostras de plantas periodicamente. Obtidos materiais de ambos os ensaios, processaram-se as análises químicas. A var. Avelar mostra-se mais exigente em nutrientes, no período inicial de frutificação e é mais sensível a carências nutricionais que a var. Ikeda.The presente work, was carried out in order to study: a) the effect of omission and presence of the macronutrients on the growth of the plants; b) the amounts of macronutrients, absorbed during the growth of the plants; c) the sensibility to nutritional deficiences. Young sweet pepper plants of varieties Avelar and Ikeda were grown in pots containing pure quartz. Twice a day, they were irrigated by percolation with nutrient solution. The treatments were: complete solution and deficient solutions, in which each one of the macronutrients was omitted (HOAGLAND & ARNON, 1950). When the malnutrition symptoms appeared, the plants were harvested and their dry matter was analysed chemically. The absorption of macronutrients was studied with the plants of both varieties, cultivated under field conditions. Periodically, plants were harvested and analysed for N, P, K, Ca, Mg and S. Conclusions: 1 - both of the varieties are resistent to blossom-end rot; 2 - the variety Avelar has a greater demand in macronutrients, on the begining of fruitage, than the variety Ikeda; 3 - the variety Avelar is more sensibile to deficiencies of the macronutrients, than the variety Ikeda; 4 - the initial rate of growth of the sweet pepper during the first 75 days, in rather slow; 5 - new experiments are necessary to study times of application of N; 6 - there\u27s no significant difference between the varieties, in the total nutrients absorbed on the end of the plant cycle; 7 - one ha of sweet plants (31,250) remove and export the following quantities in nutrients
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
Multimodal analysis of metaphors in political-religious discourse: a cognitive-semiotic approach
No full textThis paper analyzes the interrelation between gestures and speech in the construction of multimodal metaphors in the “legislative session” genre. Based on Multimodal Semiotic Blending (MSB), an adaptation of Brandt and Brandt’s (2005) model (MIRANDA; MENDES, 2014; AVELAR, in press), an illustrative analysis of the multimodal metaphors found in the sessions was performed, focusing on the verbal and gestural resources used by the participants. To do so, five scenes were selected from two legislativesessions performed by two so-called “Representative-pastors” of the Brazilian House of Representatives: Marco Feliciano and Silas Malafaia. Finally, the metaphors and the gestures performed by both politicians were compared. The conclusion reached in this study demonstrated how MSB can be relevant when analyzing the iconicity of material resources (mainly gestures) used by the participants.Keywords: Cognitive Semiotics.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
