Corse et Toscane aux époques moderne et contemporaine
Le livre recueille huit textes provenant des participants au colloque “Corse et Toscane à l’époque moderne et contemporaine” qui s’est tenu à Bastia le 23 janvier 2014. Ce colloque a permis à des chercheurs d’universités françaises et italiennes d’étudier des thématiques d’une grande importance historiographique, qui vont de l’histoire politique à celle de la culture, de l’histoire économique à la géopolitique. Les résultats nous semblent présenter, sur de nombreux aspects, une incontestable originalité scientifique, et en même temps, ils constituent une base pour entreprendre d’autres recherches.

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
Pascal Paoli à Maria Cosway: lettres et documents, 1782-1803
Le fonds documentaire qui est à la source de cet ouvrage est conservé dans le Fondazione Maria Cosway à Lodi, en Italie. Il comprend essentiellement un corpus de cent vingt-trois lettres et billets datant de 1782 à 1803, qui constitue la correspondance active du chef corse Pascal Paoli (1725-1807) à Maria Cosway (1760-1838), l’épouse du célèbre peintre miniaturiste Richard Cosway. Chaque document, dont l’original est en italien, est retranscrit, traduit et annoté; l’édition comporte en outre une chronologie historique, une chronologie des lettres et un index. Cette correspondance éclaire sous un jour nouveau la biographie de Pascal Paoli au temps de son séjour en Angleterre, période qui constituait une lacune importante dans ce domaine. Elle précise la nature des liens entre le chef corse et la famille Bonaparte. Envers sa correspondante, l’auteur se révèle malicieux, spirituel, affectueusement ironique, moralisateur, ferme sur le décorum qu’il croit devoir maintenir, mais aussi traversé parfois par le doute, la tristesse et le découragement, voire l’angoisse métaphysique. Le portrait moral qui en ressort est celui d’un personnage amateur de littérature, de peinture et de musique, plus sensible, plus vivant, moins figé que l’image littéraire héroïsée et ‘monumentale’ du ‘champion de la liberté’ que James Boswell a laissé à la postérité dans son Account of Corsica and Memoirs of Pascal Paoli. On perçoit aussi la riche et attachante personnalité de la destinaire de ces lettres. Le seul fait que Maria Cosway ait eu le souci de conserver ces documents témoigne moins de sa vanité que de son intelligence. Un autre intérêt, et non des moindres, est la toile de fond, esquissée par les nombreuses allusions à la pléiade de célébrités du monde des lettres et des arts que Paoli côtoyait. Cette évocation illustre à quel point Londres était alors un ardent et brillant foyer de culture.

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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
