Bunt i nostalgia. Filmy dokumentalne o festiwalu w Jarocinie
The aim of the article is to present and attempt to classify documentary films about the Jarocin music festival. The films are conventionally divided into those shot during the 1980s editions and those created in our century, which describe them festival in retrospect. By analyzing selected works, the author draws attention to whether and how the approach to the subject and the form of the film change over the years.The aim of the article is to present and attempt to classify documentary films about the Jarocin music festival.

Dźwięk i znaczenie w Truposzu Jima Jarmuscha
The aim of the article is to prove that the Dead Man soundtrack written by Neil Young plays an essential part in understanding and interpreting Jim Jarmusch’s film. The author of the article highlights the meaningful role of Dead Man in the director’s oeuvre, analyses the film’s structure, examines the process of recording the soundtrack as well as characterizes the selected scenes. He singles out the music motifs, their functions, and outlines the musical and dramatic effect of the film.The aim of the article is to prove that the Dead Man soundtrack written by Neil Young plays an essential part in understanding and interpreting Jim Jarmusch’s film.

Rock, The Rolling Stones, Scorsese – his films, his soundtracks
Wydział Filologii Polskiej i KlasycznejPraca poświęcona jest muzyce rockowej w kinie Martina Scorsese, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem muzyki zespołu The Rolling Stones. W rozdziale I zarysowano problematykę obecności muzyki rockowej w kinie fabularnym i dokumentalnym. Myślą przewodnią tego rozdziału jest założenie, że rock jako gatunek muzyki popularnej od samych początków był bardzo mocno związany z kinem, pośrednio i bezpośrednio. Rozdział II poświęcono Martinowi Scorsese i jego związkom z szeroko rozumianą muzyką rockową. Omawia się tu film fabularny Kto puka do moich drzwi (1969) i dokumenty muzyczne (rockumentaries) Scorsesego. W rozdziale III, kluczowym dla całej pracy, scharakteryzowano relację The Rolling Stones – Scorsese. Przedmiotem analiz i rozważań uczyniono następujące filmy: Ulice nędzy (1973), Chłopcy z ferajny (1990), Kasyno (1995) i Infiltracja (2006), a także dokument Rolling Stones w blasku świateł (2008). W zakończeniu rozprawy doktorskiej zostały wyodrębnione funkcje muzyki, a przede wszystkim muzyki The Rolling Stones i jej wyjątkowej obecności w kinie Scorsesego; muzyka ta jest inherentnym składnikiem jego estetyki filmowej.
The doctoral dissertation is dedicated to rock music in Martin Scorsese's cinema, with a particular focus on the music of The Rolling Stones. Chapter I outlines the issue of the presence of rock music in both narrative and documentary cinema. The main idea of this chapter is the assumption that rock, as a genre of popular music, has been closely associated with cinema, both indirectly and directly, from its very beginnings. Chapter II is devoted to Martin Scorsese and his connections to rock music in a broader sense. It discusses the film Who's That Knocking at My Door (1969) and Scorsese's music documentaries (rockumentaries). In Chapter III, which is crucial to the entire thesis, the relationship between The Rolling Stones and Scorsese is characterized. The following films are analyzed and discussed: Mean Streets (1973), Goodfellas (1990), Casino (1995), The Departed (2006), as well as the documentary Shine a Light (2008). In the conclusion, the functions of music, especially The Rolling Stones' music, and its unique presence in Scorsese's cinema are delineated; this music is an inherent component of his film aesthetics
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
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
