Monstruos, muertos y otras historias del borde: gótico y civilibarbarie en "Bajo el agua negra", de Mariana Enriquez
Full text linkThis article is a proposal for the analysis of the tale “Under the black water”, by the Argentine author Mariana Enriquez (1973). The story belongs to the anthology Things We lost in the fire (2016), and puts Buenos Aires conurbano and its characters at the center of the plot, as a key element and trigger for the Gothic action. For this reason, the focus of the analysis is on the urban territory and its derivations. The main theoretical elements that will be useful for this approach are concepts formulated for the study of horror literature (mainly David Punter’s theory on the Gothic genre) and the category of “civilibarbarism” proposed by Elsa Drucaroff to think about many manifestations of the New Argentine Narrative.El presente artículo es una propuesta de análisis del cuento “Bajo el agua negra”, de la autora argentina Mariana Enriquez (1973). El relato pertenece a la antología Las cosas que perdimos en el fuego, del año 2016; y pone al conurbano bonaerense y sus personajes en el centro de la trama, como elemento clave y desencadenante de la acción gótica. Es por ello, que el foco del análisis estará puesto sobre el territorio urbano y sus derivaciones. Los principales elementos teóricos que resultarán útiles para este abordaje son conceptos formulados para el estudio de la literatura de terror (fundamentalmente la teoría de David Punter sobre el género gótico) y la categoría de “civilibarbarie” propuesta por Elsa Drucaroff para pensar muchas manifestaciones de la Nueva Narrativa Argentina
A 20 AÑOS DEL ESTRENO DE BAJAR ES LO PEOR, DE LEYLA GRÜNBERG. PANORAMA DE UNA LECTURA QUE MIGRÓ HACIA EL GÓTICO
No full textHace veinte años, en abril de 2002, se estrenaba de forma no comercial Bajar es lo peor, película dirigida por Leyla Grünberg y basada en la obra homónima de Mariana Enríquez, publicada en 1995. En el filme, se evidencia una lectura de la novela anclada a la realidad política y social de la Argentina de los años 90 y principios de los 2000 que, con un estilo despojado y crudo, que sugiere más de lo que dice, condujo a una producción que avala la mirada de la crítica y ubica la ópera prima de Enríquez dentro del realismo sucio con tintes fantásticos. Hoy, sin embargo, Bajar es lo peor, ha sido reeditada recientemente por Anagrama y es leída como la primera novela gótica de una autora que, por otra parte, es considerada “la dama argentina del terror gótico”. En el presente artículo intentaremos analizar los elementos que condujeron a este cambio en el paradigma de lectura.
 
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Rebeldía, pertenencia y exhumación: Un diálogo desde el presente y hacia el futuro entre Inti Soledad Bustos y Juan Casamayor acerca de la edición, publicación y lectura de autoras latinoamericanas
Full text linkThe interview registered in this article took place on Friday, September 26, 2025, under the title «Reading and Editing Women Authors in Latin America», during the second day of the Mendoza International Book Fair (Espacio Cultural Julio Le Parc, Mendoza, Argentina). This interview transcribes the dialogue between Prof. Inti Soledad Bustos and Juan Casamayor, who joined virtually from Zaragoza to participate in the event. The interview contains reflections on the role of editors, the boom in female readers, and the publication of female authors within the landscape of Spanish-written literature.La entrevista aquí registrada se llevó a cabo el viernes 26 de septiembre de 2025, bajo el título «Leer y editar autoras en América Latina», durante la segunda jornada de la Feria Internacional del Libro de Mendoza (Espacio Cultural Julio Le Parc, Mendoza, Argentina).

La entrevista recoge reflexiones sobre la figura de los editores, el boom de lectoras y la publicación de autoras dentro de un panorama de literatura escrita en español
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
No full textWe 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
