"God created Slovenia last". Past and contemprary slovenian folktales (Vilenica 99/Literary folklore), selected, edited and introduction
We have a confession to make. Author Marija Stanonik sent us this collection of Slovenian folktales just after it was published, in 1999. We would have gladly made a review of it should we have passed the middle of it while turning its pages, as if the first half was in Slovenian, the second half was in the purest English. All these years had to pass before we were told by the
author that turning a few more pages would bring good results. And she was right! From p. 107 to the end the book is not only in English but it gives us the first English translation of Slovenian folktales, a treasure because it is
the first time ever that we have access to them in the English reading world, but also because they are a joy to read

Rostos do bem e do mal nos contos tradicionais
Dissertação de mest. Literatura Portuguesa, Faculdade de Ciências Humanas e Sociais, Univ. do Algarve, 2004O tema da presente tese nasceu da realização de um trabalho comparativo de contos
referentes ao tipo Aa Th 480, The Kind and the Unkind Girls, feito durante o mestrado,
no âmbito da disciplina de Literatura Oral Tradicional, o qual me despertou particular
interesse.
Nessa altura, verifiquei que as diferentes versões evidenciavam, em algumas temáticas,
uma simetria determinante do bem e do mal. Fiquei, depois, com vontade de pesquisar
mais acerca desse aspecto, alargando o corpus em estudo
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
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
Brincando, brincando ...Pós-modernismo nos contos de fadas
Ninguém melhor do que a própria autora para definir o espírito (confessadamente pós-lacaniano) que enforma as análises da recente obra ensaística de Cristina Bacchilega sobre várias reescritas feministas de quatro contos de fadas clássicos, que ela apelida de pós-modernas
