    L'elemento estetico della conoscenza storica. Fra Croce e Windelband

    No full text
    Intuition and interest in the historical knowledge. The “early” Croce and Windelband. The author makes a comparison between Benedetto Croce’s academic writing of 1893, La storia ridotta sotto il concetto generale dell’arte, and Wilhelm Windelband’s Rektoratsrede of 1894, Geschichte und Naturwissenschaft. By means of this comparison, which is focused on the concepts of intuition and interest, the author can reconstruct the dense network of sources of the theory of the history outlined by the young Croce and by Windelband: from Lazarus to Simmel, from Köstlin to Labriola

    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

    Architettura, cantieri urbani e paesaggio fluviale a Lione: quale ruolo per il turismo

    No full text
    Il contributo affronta la questione del turismo d’affari e culturale a Lione in relazione alla trasformazione della parte meridionale della Presq’île di Lione, in particolare per quanto riguarda il rapporto tra nuovi interventi, paesaggio tecnico, paesaggio fluviale, paesaggio “naturale”. A seguito del progressivo declino dell’industria, Raymond Barre, sindaco della città, avvia nel 1995 il progetto Lyon-Confluence, nel 1997 oggetto di un concorso internazionale. Lo schema direttore prevede un vasto programma di abitazioni e uffici, un centro commerciale, un bacino nautico e attrezzature collettive. L’esperimento di rigenerazione urbana è affidato a importanti studi di architettura secondo lo slogan uno schema-mille progetti. In particolare il Musée des Confluences di Coop Himmelb(l)au. è entrato a far parte dei circuiti di visita della città, tanto che la Lyon City Boat organizza un apposito tour “Destinazione confluenza” che dalla vecchia Lione conduce fino alla punta meridionale della penisola. La penisola a forma di triangolo allungato, la cui base poggia sulla città storica, la cui punta si bagna nelle acque dove confluiscono i due fiumi Saona e Rodan,o nasce, nella sua estensione attuale, alla fine del XVIII secolo dal progetto dell’ingegnere e costruttore Antoine Perrache. Attraverso un’imponente opera di rettificazione e regimazione del Rodano la confluenza viene spostata a meridione, ricavando un terreno di circa duecento ettari disponibile per nuove costruzioni, che a partire dall’inizio del XIX secolo, grazie anche al nuovo sistema ferroviario, accoglie depositi, attività produttive e portuali. L’intervento intende indagare, attraverso una documentazione e riflessione critica, in che modo il progetto Lyon-Confluence si misuri con i caratteri del paesaggio storico fluviale della città

    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

    No full text
    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
