No full textGli sviluppi della prospettiva a Milano dalla fine del Quattrocento alla fine del Cinquecento a seguito dei raggiungimenti dei maggiori esponenti: Leonardo e Bramante. Dal Cenacolo del primo, alla finta prospettiva del secondo in San Satiro a Milano, si diffonde l'uso della prospettiva dipinta con risultati, ad esempio da parte di Bramantino e di Bernardino Luini, che trasformeranno la prospettiva in uno strumento destinato al raggiungimento di effetti scenografici e illusionistici nel corso dei secoli successivi
An historical comparison exactly one hundred years apart. The global financial crises of 1907 and 2007 and the FIAT case study
No full textIntroduction: The paper analyses the case study of the FIAT automotive company in two global financial crises which broke out exactly 100 years apart: the crisis of 1907 known as the "Banking Panic" and the crisis of 2007, and its burst in 2008, known as the "Great Recession".
Aim of the work: The paper aims to analyze company strategies in financial crises, by adopting a business perspective, in order to capture similarities and differences; contributions to support companies in the transformation of organizational, managerial and operation processes during changing environmental conditions are provided.
Methodological approach: The research follows an interpretive and qualitative ap-proach. Starting from the theoretical background of the two financial crises, the study identified the company FIAT as a "single business case study". FIAT's financial statements and corporate documents for the periods 1907-1913 and 2007-2013 are critically assessed.
Main findings: Case study findings highlight the successfully implemented strategies and the paths of growth pursued by the Company to survive and restart. In this sense, the case study analysis supports the identification of some elements and actions able to guide companies through periods of environmental and business crisis. Moreover, the study of the FIAT historical corporate documents permits to observe the evolution - about the structure and the content - of corporate disclo-sure over time.
Originality: There is a lack of studies that analyze and compare the two crises. The comparison between the two financial crises by adopting a business perspective is novel. The historical comparison together with the analysis of the evolution of the FIAT's corporate disclosure over time, provides relevant scientific insights, poten-tially able to favour an advancement of knowledge to help companies in the trans-formation and adaptation processes to changing environmental conditions

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
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
