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
Dancing the culture : the museum as an example of labyrinthine architecture and a cognitive scheme - some remarks from the perspective of cultural semiotics
Muzeum pełni w świecie współczesnym ważną funkcję kulturotwórczą oraz
edukacyjną. Niemniej poza czysto instytucjonalnym wymiarem ma ono również
wymiar kognitywny. Nie tylko może stanowić model semiosfery, procesów
pozyskiwania, gromadzenia, udostępniania i przekazywania wiedzy, ale
także - jako niezwykle polimorficzny i elastyczny intellectual paradigm - pełni
istotną funkcję poznawczą. Jednocześnie muzeum rozumiane jako budowl a i model poznawczy przywołuje tu inną, aczkolwiek pokrewną kategorię - labirynt.
Opierając się na tym zestawieniu, autor dokonuje reinterpretacji mitu
o Minotaurze i labiryncie z perspektywy semiotyki kultury. Zdaniem autora
fabuła mitu wraz z ważnymi figurami kultury, takimi jak Minotaur, budowla
o skomplikowanym układzie pomieszczeń czy Tezeusz, może posłużyć za
podstawę do rekonstrukcji procesu semiozy, mechanizmów formułowania
niewłaściwych, błędnych znaczeń oraz strategii ich korygowania.The museum plays an important educational and culture forming role in the
modern world. Beside this purely institutional dimension, there is also a cognitive
one. The museum, however, may not only be a model of the semiosphere
or of the processes of acquiring, collecting, sharing, and transferring of knowledge.
It also plays a significant cognitive function as an extremely polymorphic
and flexible intellectual paradigm. Simultaneously, the museum conceived as
a building and a cognitive scheme evokes a different but related structure here.
It is a labyrinth. On the basis on this parallel, the author reinterprets the myth
of the Minotaur from the perspective of cultural semiotics. According to the
author, the plot of the myth, along with all the important figures of culture such
as the Minotaur, the monumental building with a complicated arrangement of
rooms, and Theseus can be used as a structural pattern for the reconstruction
of the semiosis processes, mechanisms responsible for formulating improper
and false meanings, as well as the strategies of rectifying them
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
(Post)archaiczność obrazu
The proximity of the late archaic Greek philosophical breakthrough and postmodernity relies on the analogy of a media and intellectual revolution that takes place in both periods. Greek culture of the 6th and early 5th century BCE gradually moves from orality to literacy, from performativity and affection towards an intellectual view of the world and reflective being, from a world that is shared with non-human beings to the world of human monody. Modernity, however, seems to reverse these trends. Nevertheless, we do not go into the past but reach a higher level of archaicity. From this point of view, postmodernity becomes postarchaicity; this is a chance that in the moment of historical contiguity, vivisection of our culture will reveal still active common places, allowing us to explore images before the metaphysical era. The starting point of the analysis is the question“What is the image?” posed by Maurice Blanchot and his extremely insightful answer to this question.The proximity of the late archaic Greek philosophical breakthrough and postmodernity relies on the analogy of a media and intellectual revolution that takes place in both periods.

Technopaideia in Literary Education
The article deals with the role and impact of advanced technologies on literary education. In the beginning, the author emphasizes fundamentally different cognitive objectives of empirical science and humanities. In the authors' opinion, the current scientification of the humanities leads to the domination of a single type of knowledge based on empiricism promoted in schools as a part of the so-called STEM education. A visible manifestation of this process is the labification of school learning methods. The laboratory metaphor may, however, be destructive for the non-science studies. Thereafter, the author outlines how advanced technologies can be used to teach literature according to the specificity of the cognitive model of philological studies. Through the example of an ongoing research project he shows how using cultural heritage sites and embedded education can enhance the process of studying literature, and thus help students develop new interpretative pathways and cognitive skills based on elements typical for digital environments and augmented reality
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
