Neil Jordan, Author and Screenwriter. The Imagination of Transgression
No full textInternational audienceNeil Jordan is immediately associated with the successful films he has directed (The Crying Game, Interview with the Vampire, Michael Collins...). And yet, he is also a man of letters. His literary work, composed of eight novels and a collection of short stories, is rich, dense and complex. It shows an interest in Irish history and politics, but also in the supernatural and the irrational. It creates a universe where time and space can abolish themselves, the material and the spiritual merge, the visible and invisible interpenetrate. Jordan’s fiction also transgresses the borders in more than one way. Both realistic and fantastic, it establishes numerous connections with psychoanalysis, Christian religion, mythology or cultural tradition, and revisits them in an original way. The present study approaches Neil Jordan’s literary work in all its diversity. It focuses primarily on the novelist, but also on the short story writer and the screenwriter, as his film making cannot be ignored. This book, devoted to the writer, aims to do justice to a major figure in contemporary Irish cultural life, whose artistic creation remains largely unexplored.IntroductionPart I: Putting Realism to the TestChapter 1 - Night in Tunisia and Other Stories: A Mysterious Collection between Tradition and InnovationChapter 2 - “There’s a kind of truth in fiction, isn’t there?” Family Memory and National History: The Past and Michael CollinsPart II: ZoomorphosesChapter 3 - Demons of Darkness at Work: The Dream of a Beast and The Company of WolvesChapter 4 - The Fictitious Fulfilment of Oedipal Desires: Sunrise with Sea MonsterPart III: On the Fringe of Literature: Scripts and Screen AdaptationsChapter 5 - Troubles Never Come Singly: The Crying Game and Breakfast on PlutoChapter 6 - From the Page to the Screen: Interview with the Vampire, The Butcher Boy and The End of the Affair.Part IV: Displacements and DislocationsChapter 7 - Shade: A Beheaded Actress’s NarrativeChapter 8 - Mistaken: Division, Duplication and UsurpationPart V: When Ghosts Cling to the LivingChapter 9 - A Necrophilic Romance: The Drowned Detective or the Magic Spell of the CelloChapter 10 - Through the Looking-Glass: The Marvellous World of CarnivalesquePart VI: As Everything Ends with a SongChapter 11 - “Drink, to the obliteration of all distinction!” and Sing The Ballad of Lord Edward and Citizen SmallConclusion</b
Écrivaines irlandaises ∙ Irish Women Writers
No full textDes textes de toute nature, produits par des femmes irlandaises, sont étudiés ici. Le présent volume a pour objectifs de mettre l’accent sur la multiplicité des pratiques et de s’interroger sur les rapports qu’entretiennent les écrivaines avec leur identité féminine, de se demander dans quelle mesure celle-ci joue un rôle dans le processus de création, et de quelle manière elle s’inscrit dans leurs productions. Il questionne l’existence d’une relation entre identité sexuée et création littéraire, l’articulation entre genre et nationalité, l’écrit comme lieu privilégié où se ré-élabore l’imaginaire de la différence sexuelle
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
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
