    L’articolo presenta un’indagine sperimentale, empirica e multimetodica nel campo della ricerca educativa volta a fornire una panoramica sulla presenza delle culture e delle letterature ispanoamericane nei libri di testo della scuola superiore italiana. A tale scopo, il lavoro è stato suddiviso in due fasi: dapprima, si è provveduto alla raccolta e alla rielaborazione di alcuni dati ottenuti attraverso un’indagine quali-quantitativa, a cui ha partecipato un gruppo di docenti di spagnolo delle scuole secondarie di secondo grado. A partire dai risultati emersi dall’indagine, è stata poi realizzata un’analisi comparativa di otto manuali didattici frequentemente utilizzati per l’insegnamento dello spagnolo, suddivisi tra libri per l’insegnamento della lingua e antologie testuali, la quale ha reso possibile l’individuazione di linee di tendenza, convergenze e divergenze tra i testi analizzati

    Tra inferno precario e paradiso resistente: un’analisi sociosemiotica di Insorgiamo

    Il presente lavoro intende esplorare l’intreccio tra utopia, realtà e politica nella costruzione di un mondo socialmente più giusto, libero e solidale attraverso il testo Insorgiamo ̧ ‘archivio dissidente’ nato dall’esperienza del Collettivo di fabbrica degli operai dell’ex-GKN. L’utopia concreta proposta da Gorz individua nell’alienazione che si origina dal precariato il suo nucleo generativo e vede come soluzione praticabile la riappropriazione del tempo liberato dal lavoro salariato per progetti collettivi, atti a risvegliare il collective intellect. Analogamente, Armiero nota come il Capitale manifesti sé stesso e riproduca le disuguaglianze attraverso le wasting relationships, alle quali contrappone le commoning relationships come forma di resistenza. Il rapporto dialogico tra critiche del presente e prospettive future viene esemplificato nel testo Insorgiamo. Diario collettivo di una lotta operaia (e non solo), che, attraverso la narrazione della propria cronistoria, presenta le criticità del mondo lavorativo italiano e la riorganizzazione collettiva di soggettività solidali, ribelli e scomode. L’analisi sociosemiotica costituirà la base metodologica e speculativa per presentare, da un lato, come il neoliberalismo abbia configurato il mondo lavorativo su ‘logiche di scarto’; dall’altro, come l’intelligenza collettiva e la convergenza delle lotte permettano di creare una forte opposizione ai modelli neoliberali e consumistici

    L’utopia subalterna nel Wasteocene: Sumar di Diamela Eltit

    Get PDF
    This paper aims to explore the intertwining of utopia, reality, and politics in the construction of a more socially just, free, and inclusive world through 21st-century Chilean working-class literature. Utopia understood as a means of expressing desires and hopes, finds its generative core in thorough reflections on the problems of the present. Diamela Eltit’s novel Sumar, which explores the pressing issues of the Chilean working world and the utopian collective reorganization of marginal, dissident, and liminal subjectivities, is an example of this dialogical relationship between the factual and the fictional. Sociosemiotic analysis will provide the methodological and speculative basis for presenting, on the one hand, the wasting relationships that shape the world of the neo-working class; on the other, Gramscian political action of the subaltern classes, understood as class alliances for mobilization against capitalism and the bourgeois state

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    “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 PDF
    We 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

    Get PDF
    We 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
