Italija v vosprijatii I.A. Bunina
No full textItaly in Bunin’s perception. The paper analyses some new elements introduced by Bunin in the perception of Italy in the light of the traditional vision codified in the Italian narrative of the Russian culture between the 19th and the early 20th Century. In the first place, Bunin differentiates himself choosing Capri, an unusual destination, for his long stays in Italy. Moreover, in his description of nature, he does not resort to the intermediation of visual or literary arts, instead, he esthetically elevates Italy’s nature recreating images that recall the connection with the absolute. He delineates a wider vision of a concept that is dear to the Russian travelers when it comes to the perception of Italy as a spiritual homeland, a concept that is not limited to the cultural link between Italy and Russia mediated by Byzantium, but reaches out to the Levantine East, embodying universal cultural and spiritual values. It highlights in the surrounding reality and everyday habits the features of an ancient cultural tradition that is brought to life in the present, reiterating the uninterrupted relation with the past
‘I Know that One Should Write about you Reservedly and Simply’: an Unknown Correspondence between Ivan Bunin and Bulgarian Literary Critic Malcho Nikolov
No full textThe present publication acquaints the reader with the hitherto unknown correspondence in 1931 and 1951 between the Nobel Laureate Ivan Bunin and the Bulgarian literary critic Malcho Nikolov (1883–1962).
The letters were found in the private collections of the literary figures in the Leeds (UK) and Sofia (Bulgaria) archives. Here they are published from the original texts in modernised orthography and with extensive annotations. In addition, the context of their creation has been restored. The work follows the Bulgarian national tradition of critical and scientific reception of Bunin’s works, which was initiated in 1920 by Professor Boyan Penev of Sofia University. This tradition was further developed by his disciple Malcho Nikolov, who was, in the words
of P. Bicilli, ‘an excellent connoisseur of Russian literature’and ‘a great admirer’of Bunin’s talent. Nikolov considered Bunin his ‘most favourite author’. In 1926–1950s, he wrote three articles which likewise remained unknown until the present. These publications form an integrated text about Bunin, which preserves and transmits knowledge about the writer as a creator belonging to eternal art. The desire to come into contact with the author arose from a deep comprehension and emotional experience of Bunin’s creative work. Whereas Bunin was somewhat detached from this correspondence and it demonstrated a view of the correspondent through the Slavophile prism of tribal connectedness, Nikolov’s childlike admiration and excitement were the result of reasoning love and a developed conception of Bunin’s creative work. Bunin and Nikolov’s correspondence became not only an exchange of letters and gifts between two people ‘related by blood’ (in Bunin’s words) and by literary occupation, but also an exchange of symbols of Memory between individuals in solidarity. The publication of this text on the Nobel Laureate’s anniversary makes its indubitable contribution to Bunin studies

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Possibilities and limitations of the psychological method in the analysis of a literary work (based on the analysis of L. S. Vygotsky’s psychological essay on “Light Breathing” by I. A. Bunin)
No full textThe article includes an analytical review of different conceptual approaches and interpretations of I. A. Bunin’s novelette “Light breathing”, which have emerged during the decades after the publication of L. S. Vygotsky’s article on Bunin’s “Light breathing”. The most problematic and discussible questions are the following: the interconnection and interdependence of the form and content in the novelette; the contradictory image of the young high-school girl Olya Meshcherskaya; the culmination motive of the main character’s “failure”; the conflict; the symbolic meaning of the light breathing dominant motive and the novelette’s final. The authors of this article explain that the genre definition of L. S. Vygotsky’s article is a psychological essay, containing prevalently individual subjective and imaginative impressions and comments of the author on some elements of form and content of the literary work expounded in the emotional style. The authors also analyze Vygotsky’s version of the form and content conflict in Bunin’s novelette, note the vague differentiation of “earthly” basis of the novelette and the chain of the events in the novelette in their “natural” consequence, that leads, according to L. S. Vygotsky, to Olya Meshcherskaya’s drawing into the “earthbound haze”. Based on the speech analysis of Bunin’s novelette, the characteristics of the novelette’s main characters are redefined. Considering the writer’s intention, the authors correct Vygotsky’s perception of the light breathing dominant motive. The genre of L. S. Vygotsky’s article on Bunin’s “Light breathing” is defined as a formalistic psychological and physiological essay aiming at revealing the mechanism of literary creation impact on the reader. It is noted that the critic and psychologist presented the formal, physiological nature of this impact in a classical manner, by realizing the potential of a psychological essay genre, that is by emphasizing only one element of the literary creation and basing on it the general conclusion about ideological and artistic content of the novelette. However, it is necessary to remember that the literary creation as a whole exerts an influence on its reader by the other elements of its form, which are rhythm, tone, vocabulary, intonation, speech organization, physical, moral, esthetic points of view of the author-narrator in the novelette
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
