Gerhard Schumann : biography, work, effect of a prominent Nazi author
Full text linkIn meiner Dissertation zu dem Thema "Gerhard Schumann - Biographie. Werk. Wirkung eines prominenten nationalsozialistischen Autors" habe ich Gerhard Schumanns Biographie, Werk sowie dessen Wirkung im Rahmen historischer Ereignisse dargestellt und analysiert, um einen Beitrag zur Erforschung des Nationalsozialismus und seiner Literatur zu leisten. Kontinuitäten innerhalb der Literatur des Autors vor 1933, zwischen 1933 und 1945 sowie nach 1945 sollen dabei herausgestellt werden. Zentrale Themen und Motive im Werk des Autors werden aufgezeigt.Biographie, Gesamtwerk und Wirkung des Autors Gerhard Schumann sind auf der Grundlage von zeitgenössischem Quellenmaterial untersucht worden. Dies liegt in Form von Zeitungsartikeln, Briefen, Gesetzestexten, Aktenmaterial und anderem vor. Dazu waren verschiedene Archivreisen notwendig, um das Material zu sichten, zu sammeln und auszuwerten. Ich besuchte das Literaturarchiv in Marbach am Neckar, das Hölderlinarchiv in Stuttgart, das Stadt- und Universitätsarchiv in Tübingen, das Bundesarchiv in Koblenz mit den Außenstellen Berlin Lichterfelde, Freiburg im Breisgau und der Hauptstelle Koblenz sowie das Bayerische Staatsarchiv in München und das Archiv des Börsenvereins des Deutschen Buchhandels in Frankfurt am Main.Im Anschluss an die Biographie, die chronologisch den Lebensstationen Schumanns folgt, wird das Werk des Dichters, insbesondere seine nationalsozialistische Poetik, beschrieben, interpretiert und dessen Wirkung untersucht. Dabei werden Schumann und sein Werk in die Gruppe nationalsozialistischer Autoren, wie Anacker, Baumann, Bethge, Blunck, Euringer, Johst, Schauwecker, Vesper und von Scholz, eingeordnet. Ich gebe einen Gesamtüberblick über Schumanns Werk und analysiere die Hauptwerke des Autors genauer. Zu berücksichtigen ist, dass Schumanns Werk nicht als Gesamtausgabe vorliegt, und die Analyse nur entsprechend der vorhandenen Einzelausgaben erfolgen konnte. Dies lässt sich darauf zurückführen, dass er nicht den Popularitätsgrad besaß, wie zum Beispiel Hans Friedrich Blunck, für den die Blunck-Gesellschaft eine Gesamtausgabe herausgegeben hatte. Innerhalb der Werkbetrachtung, in der alle Schriften, die Schumann verfasste, berücksichtigt und die Hauptwerke näher analysiert werden, soll auf die Wirkung der Werke - vor allem der lyrischen und dramatischen - eingegangen werden. Von Bedeutsamkeit ist dabei, auf welche Weise sich seine lyrische Produktion nach 1945 von der früheren unterscheidet und inwieweit sich Parallelen aufzeigen lassen. Dabei findet ein Vergleich seiner Biographie mit der anderer nationalsozialistischer Autoren statt. Die Wirkung seiner Werke in dieser Zeit ist mit einzubeziehen und seine Rolle im kulturpolitischen Geschehen zu untersuchen.Mit der vorliegenden Arbeit möchte ich exemplarisch zeigen, dass Schumann - und er ist kein Einzelfall - als Lyriker und Kulturpolitiker des nationalsozialistischen Regimes zu sehen ist. Schumann gehörte zu einer Generation, die sich in den Dienst eines totalitären Systems stellte und ohne eine fundierte Ausbildung Karriere machte. Seine Lyrik hatte Propagandafunktion und trug dazu bei, das nationalsozialistische Herrschaftssystem zu etablieren und zu stützen. Ich gehe auf Schumanns Erfolg als Dichter ein, vor allem auf die Zeit zwischen 1939 und 1945, da während des Kriegs seine "Kriegs- und Reichslyrik" in hohen Stückzahlen aufgelegt wurde. Zunächst soll die nationalsozialistische Poetik am Beispiel Gerhard Schumanns dargestellt werden. Im Anschluss daran folgt die Thematisierung der frühen Kriegslyrik. Auch folgt ein allgemeines Kapitel zur Poetik des Nationalsozialismus am Beispiel Gerhard Schumanns. Am Ende der Forschungsarbeit gehe ich auf Schumanns Selbstverständnis als nationalsozialistischer Autor und die nationalsozialistische Poetik ein und mache deutlich, dass er einer der "prominenten" nationalsozialistischen Dichter war. Abschließend finden die späte Kriegslyrik und Dramatik Beachtung sowie eine Motivanalyse bezüglich des ´Führerkultes´ und der "Reichsthematik" bezogen auf das Gesamtwerk des Autors wird vorgenommen. Dabei erfolgt ein Vergleich mit der Biographie des Juristen Werner Best, durch den deutlich werden soll, dass die nationalsozialistischen Karrieren in den unterschiedlichen Bereichen Parallelen aufweisen. Die Untersuchung liefert eine Gesamtbibliographie des litearischen und essayistischen Werks, das Schumann vor, während und nach dem Nationalsozialismus verfasste. Auch gebe ich einen Überblick über die relevante Sekundärliteratur zur Gesamtthematik der vorliegenden Arbeit.In my dissertation "Gerhard Schumann - biography. Work. Effekt of a prominent Nazi author" I have described and analysed Gerhard Schumanns biography, work and its effect in the context of historical events in order to give a contribution for the research of National Socialism an his literature. Continuities within the literature of the author before 1933, from 1933 to 1945 and after 1945 will be shown. The main themes and motifs in the work of the author will be identified.Biographie, complete work and the effect of the author Gerhard Schumann has been investigated on the basis of contemporary source material. This exists in form of newspaper articles, letters, legal texts, reference material and others. I made different archives travels in order to sight the material, to collect and evaluate it. I visited the Literature archives in Marbach am Neckar, the Hölderlin archives in Stuttgart, the city and university archives and the archives of Hölderlin society in Tübingen, the Federal Archives in Koblenz with the field offices Lichterfelde Berlin, Freiburg im Breisgau and the main body Koblenz, the Bavarian State Archives in Munic and the archives of the Trade Association of German Book Trade in Frankfurt am Main.After the biography, which shows the chronological life stations of Gerhard Schumann, the analysis follows the work of the poet, in particular its Nazi poetry. This is described, analysed and examined on its effect. Schumann and his work will be classified in the group of Nazi-authors, like Anacker, Baumann, Bethge, Blunck, Euringer, Johst, Schauwecker, Vesper and von Scholz. I give an overview of Schumann´s work and analyse the major works of the author accurate. To take into account is, that Schumann´s work doesn´t exist as complete work, and the analysis only in accordance with the existing single expenditure. This can also lead back, that he hadn´t the degree of popularity, such as Hans Friedrich Blunck, the Blunck society issued a complete work of the author. Within the workshop consideration, in which all the books, Schumann wrote, and considered the main works closer, will analysed the effect of the works - especially the lyrical an dramatic - has taken place. Of significance is the manner, in which his lyrical production after 1945 distinguishes by the former and to show what extent are still parallels. I compare his biography with the biographies of other Nazi authors. The effect was his invention works in this time is involved with his role in the political culture.With this work I give an example, that Schumann, and he is not an isolated case - is to show as a poet and a politician for culture of the Nazi Regime. Schumann belonged to a generation, in the service of the National Socialism, who made without an education a strong career. His poetry had propaganda function and contributed to establish and support the National Socialism. Im going to show Schumann´s success as a poet, especially in the period from 1939 to 1945, during the war, because his ´war and imperial poetry´ existed in large quantities listed sets. So the Nazi poetics Gerhard Schumann presented the Nazi poetics. Following this is the issue of the early "war poetry". Also follows a general chapter on the poetics for National Socialism with the example Gerhard Schumann. At the end of the research work I go to Schumann´s self-image as a Nazi author and to the Nazi poetry and make it clear, that he was one of the ´prominent´ Nazi poets. Finally, the "late war poetry", a drama attention and a motive analysis on the "leadership cult" and "reach issues" to the main work of the author has been given. After that I make a comparison with the biography of the lawyer Werner Best with the clear aim to ensure, that the Nazi careers in different areas had parallels. The study provides a comprehensive bibliography of the literary and essayis work, that Schumann wrote before, during and after the National Socialism. Also I give an overview of the relevant literature to the general theme of this work
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
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
