No full text«Phaedra» di Benjamin Britten. Verso un’interpretazione queer
No full textThe essay analyzes «Phaedra» by Benjamin Britten (dramatic cantata for mezzo-soprano and small orchestra, 1976) from a queer point of view. It focuses on analysis of some musical motives, which are first presented in the prologue and then employed in the love declaration to Hippolytus. In the light of the analysis findings, the self-identification of the composer with Phaedra is hypothesized. Some studies by Philip Brett, Roland Barthes, and Francesco Orlando contribute to addressing the interpretation of the myth in this direction
Current role of cytopathology in the molecular and computational era: The perspective of young pathologists
No full text: Cytopathology represents a well established diagnostic approach because of its limited cost, reliability, and minimal invasiveness with respect to other methodologies. The evolving complexity of the different classifications systems and the implementation of ancillary techniques to refine the diagnosis is progressively helping in the risk of malignancy stratification, and the adoption of next-generation sequencing techniques contributes to enrich this valuable tool with predictive information, which is always more essential in the tailored medicine era. The recent introduction of digital and computational pathology is further boosting the potentialities of cytopathology, aiding in the interpretation of samples to improve the cost effectiveness of large screening programs and the diagnostic efficiency within intermediate/atypical categories. Moreover, the adoption of artificial intelligence tools is promising to complement molecular investigations, representing a stimulating perspective in the cytopathology field. In this work, the authors tried to summarize the multifaceted nature of this complex and evolving field of pathology, synthesizing the most recent advances and providing the young pathologists' perspective on this fascinating world
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

No full textVariations 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
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
