Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Domingos Ribeiro Filho’s militant chronicle in Careta’s magazine: history, literature and politics in the First Republic
No full textEsta pesquisa investiga parte da trajetória do literato Domingos Ribeiro Filho (1875-
1942) na revista Careta, publicada no Rio de Janeiro. Tendo colaborado com seus escritos
neste periódico entre 1911 e 1934 — colaboração até hoje pouco estudada —, o trabalho
consistiu em analisar os primeiros anos (1924-1925) de sua atuação numa coluna específica,
intitulada “Looping the loop”, na qual suas crônicas abordavam questões da vida cotidiana, ao
mesmo tempo em que se constituíam em espaço privilegiado para o exercício de sua militância
política anarquista. O eixo central da pesquisa é justamente a análise do modo e das estratégias
empregadas pelo literato, no sentido de articular o seu ideário político-ideológico ao abordar
diferentes aspectos da realidade vivida nos anos 1920 na Capital Federal. Sendo a Careta uma
revista das mais conhecidas na época, que conjugava a crítica política, social e de costumes
com a sátira em suas páginas — a começar pelas charges frequentemente estampadas como
ilustração em suas capas —, investiga-se os significados da militância política do autor das
crônicas publicadas na coluna em questão, examinando as condições e as redes de relações que
tornaram possível a sua presença num veículo da imprensa de grande circulação na época. Em
se tratando de uma pesquisa desenvolvida no campo da história social da literatura, o
pressuposto teórico adotado implica em conceber o texto literário numa perspectiva dialética e
materialista. Ou seja, entende-se que a crônica é uma das formas através das quais o autor
participa do movimento da história e nela interfere com a sua produção literária, que é ao
mesmo tempo determinada pelos mais variados fatores da realidade em que é produzida — a
exemplo do que preceituam autores como Raymond Williams e Antonio Candido, entre outros.
Portanto, interessa explorar nessa pesquisa o potencial dessas crônicas como documento e fonte
para a história do Brasil na última década da Primeira República.This research investigates part of the trajectory of the author Domingos Ribeiro Filho
(1875-1942) in the Careta’s magazine, published in Rio de Janeiro. Collaborated with his
writings in this magazine between 1911 and 1934 — a collaboration that has not been studied
today — the work consisted of analyzing the first years (1924-1925) of his work in a specific
column, titled "Looping the loop", in which his chronicles addressed issues of everyday life,
while constituting a privileged space for the exercise of his anarchist political militancy. The
central axis of the research is precisely the analysis of the strategies employed by the author,
in order to articulate it’s political-ideological idea by addressing different aspects of the reality
lived in the 1920s in the Federal Capital. Careta’s magazine was of the best known at the time,
which combined political, social and customs criticism with satire in its pages — starting with
the cartoons often printed as an illustration on its covers — intends to investigates the meanings
of the political militancy of the author of the chronicles published in the column in question,
examining the conditions and networks of relationships that made possible its presence in a
vehicle of the press of great circulation at the time. In the case of a research developed in the
field of the social history of literature, the theoretical assumption adopted implies conceiving
the literary text in a dialectical and materialistic perspective. That is, it is understood that the
chronicle is one of the ways in which the author participates in the movement of history and
interferes with its literary production, which is at the same time determined by the most varied
factors of the reality in which it is produced — as authors such as Raymond Williams and
Antonio Candido, among others. Therefore, it is interesting to explore in this research the
potential of these chronicles as a document and source for the history of Brazil in the last decade
of the First Republic.Não recebi financiament
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe 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
Sobre os meios e modos de fazer jornalismo na Primeira República: Lima Barreto entre a história e a ficção
No full textThis article is the analysis of a short story written by Lima Barreto (1881-1922), entitled "The Journalist", published in Souza Cruz magazine in 1921, as it presents a discussion on the ways and means of doing journalism during the First Republic. Being the literature a source and a kind of document, the meaning of this publication is investigated, as well as its relationship to other texts of this author aiming to understand how the struggles in the world of media were revealed then. These are partial results of a research conducted in the field of social history of culture, considering the theoretical contributions of E. P. Thompson and Raymond Williams.Este artigo consiste na análise de um conto de Lima Barreto (1881-1922), intitulado “O jornalista”, publicado na revista Souza Cruz, em 1921, a partir do qual se discute e examina os meios e modos de fazer jornalismo na Primeira República. Tomando a literatura como fonte e como um tipo de documento, investiga-se o significado dessa publicação, bem como sua relação com outros textos do autor, a fim de perceber o quanto são capazes de revelar sobre as lutas travadas no universo da imprensa. Trata-se de resultados parciais de pesquisa desenvolvida no campo da história social da cultura, tendo como referenciais teóricos as contribuições de E. P. Thompson e Raymond Williams
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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
Na terra da desconfiança: história e política no romance Manual prático do Ódio, de Ferréz.
No full textEsta monografia investiga, a partir da perspectiva da História Social da Literatura, o romance Manual Prático do Ódio (publicado em 2003) e a trajetória de vida de seu autor, Ferréz. Desta maneira, busca-se examinar as possíveis contribuições da Literatura Marginal nos estudos históricos, sobretudo no que se refere ao que a obra e autor agregam para a compreensão e análise crítica da conjuntura sociocultural e política de São Paulo sob a dinâmica do capitalismo - no período de virada do século XX para o XXI -, centrando-se especificamente no contexto das periferias e dos agentes que fazem parte deste lugar social. Abordando questões de desigualdade social, violência, discriminação e uma intensa e visceral luta de classes-consequência de uma dura realidade político-social do país - propõe-se então uma breve análise sobre a construção do sujeito histórico periférico atravessado pelo sistema capitalista e sua influência nas dinâmicas sociais e questões identitárias. Essa pesquisa tem também o objetivo de difundir reflexões a respeito das múltiplas formas de entender e escrever a história, bem como sobre a legitimidade de fontes, vozes, olhares e protagonismos diversos na produção do saber historiográfico
Cordel literature and history teaching: dialogues and possibilities in elementary school
No full textEsta pesquisa tem por objetivo investigar os possíveis usos da literatura de cordel no ensino de História, nos anos finais do Ensino Fundamental. A abordagem concentrou-se sobre a produção de folhetos de cordel no Nordeste brasileiro, desde o seu aparecimento, no final do século XIX, até a década de 1920, período em que estiveram em atividade os poetas pioneiros da nossa literatura de cordel. Após contemplar o surgimento da literatura de cordel, suas características e precursores, passou-se a examinar as propostas e possibilidades de trabalho com os folhetos no ensino de História. Considerando que o uso da literatura de cordel nas aulas de História pode favorecer a interdisciplinaridade, a criatividade, o desenvolvimento de habilidades de leitura, oralidade e trabalho coletivo, analisamos 35 folhetos com temáticas da História brasileira durante a Primeira República como: movimentos sociais do campo, rebeliões, a participação do Brasil na Grande Guerra, desigualdades sociais, problemas econômicos, eleições, política, cangaço, costumes, religiosidade, etc. Os resultados da pesquisa apontaram que os folhetos de cordel são uma fonte histórica privilegiada que pode contribuir de forma substancial para o ensino de História, proporcionando um diálogo com o conhecimento histórico dos livros didáticos e da historiografia. A utilização do cordel nas aulas de História pode enriquecê-las e torná-las mais atrativas e estimulantes, contribuindo para experiências de ensino-aprendizagem mais significativas.The objective of this research is to investigate the possibilities of using cordel literature in history teaching, in the final years of elementary school. The research focused on the production of cordel leaflets in Northeastern Brazil, since its appearance, at the end of the 19th century, until the 1920s, a period in which the pioneering poets of our cordel literature were active. After discussing the emergence of cordel literature and its characteristics and precursors, we began to discuss the proposals and possibilities of working with the leaflets in the teaching of history. It was highlighted that the use of cordel literature in history classes can favor interdisciplinarity, creativity, the development of reading skills, orality and collective work. A documentary corpus of 35 leaflets was selected and analyzed, with themes from Brazilian history during the First Republic such as: rural social movements, rebellions,Brazil's participation in the Great War, social inequalities, economic problems, elections, politics, cangaço, customs , religiosity, etc. The results of the research pointed out that cordel leaflets are a privileged historical source that can contribute substantially to the teaching of history, providing a dialogue with the historical knowledge of textbooks and historiography. The use of cordel in history classes can enrich them and make them more attractive and stimulating, contributing to more significant teaching-learning experiences.Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES
