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
L'EDITORE E L'AUTORE: VALENTINO BOMPIANI E LIBERO BIGIARETTICON CARTEGGIO INEDITO
No full textIl presente contributo si propone di ricostruire il sodalizio Fra valentino bompiani e libero bigiaretti, sulla base del carteggio inedito, desunto dall'archivio personale dell'editore e dall'archivio della casa editrice. Nella personlaità dei due protagonisti, e nelle ragioni insite nella rispettiva opera intellettuale, trova adeguata valorizzazione lo scambio umano e professionale intercorso fra l'autore e il suo editore, a partire dai primissimi anni sessanta, in un periodo di importanti cambiamenti dal punto di vista dell'assetto aziendale, che culminerà nel 1973 con la vendita del marchio. Si deve all'indiscusso "protagonismo" dell'editore la peculiarietà del legame con lo scrittore marchigiano (all'amico Valentino questi affidò la ristampa di molte sue opere passate, nonché l'edizione di quelle future), il quale aggiunge tasselli importanti alla ricostruzione di numerosi aspetti: in particolare, trapelano dalle lettere, fra gioie e delusioni, umori e confessioni che bene motivano l'evoluzione creativa e interiore di Bigiaretti nella fase più matura della propria esperienza narrativa, con esiti nuovi soprattutto dal punto di vista espressivo. I numerosi riferimenti, nel carteggio, alla scrittura e alla poetica Bigiarettiana - in un continuo confronto con Bompiani, fido confidente e affascinato lettore - trovano rispondenza nelle stesure autografe dei romanzi in oggetto, comprovando, al contempo, il faticoso labora limae dell'autore.The aim of this work is to rebuild the fellowship between Valentino Bompiani and Libero Bigiaretti on the basis of the unpublished correspondence found in publisher's private archives and publishing house's ones. In the two protagonists' personality, and in the reasons implied in their intellectual work, there is a fair appreciation of the human and professional relationship passed between the author and his publisher starting from the early 70's, a time of important changes in the company structure, which ends with the sell of the brand name in 1973.
It's due to the publisher's undisputed desire to be the centre of attention the peculiarity of the relationship with the author form the Marche (to his friend Valentino he entrusted the reprint of his past works and also the print of the future ones), a relationship that adds important particulars to the reconstruction of many aspects; the letters show especially, among joys and disillusions, moods and confessions that explain, in a clear way, Bigiaretti's creative and inner development in the more mature phase oh his narrative experience, that led to new results above all from the expressive point of view. The large number of references, in the exchange of letters, to Bigiaretti's writing and poetics – in a continuous comparison with Bompiani, faithful confidant and charmed reader – find a correspondence in the drafts (in Bigiaretti's own hand) of the analyzed novels, proving, at the same time, the author's strenuous labour limae
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
