Li Guangdi (1642-1718) and the official Cheng-Zhu learning in the early Qing = 李光地與清初官方程朱理學
No full textLi Guangdi (1642-1718) was a prominent figure in Early Qing. He was one of the most important scholars of the Cheng-Zhu School (程朱學派) and an influential politician. Many essays have been written on his political influence. However, there are still some aspects of his thought that have not been studied. This thesis attempts to analyze the thought of Li and appraise his role in the realm of Chinese Intellectual History.
The thesis also traces the origins of Li’s thought. Li was affected by both Cheng-Zhu School and Lu–Wang School (陸王學派) in Neo-Confucianism (宋明理學). Li combined the doctrines of the two schools instead of simply following the traditions of Cheng-Zhu. It resulted in the complicity of his thought. He was devoted to Cheng-Zhu School but his ideas on the Great Learning (Da Xue Da Xue , 大學) originated from the Lu–Wang School.
Li was also criticized for flattering the Kangxi Emperor (1654-1722, r. 1661-1722), an enthusiast of the Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucian School, by adopting the Cheng-Zhu doctrines and belittling those of the Lu–Wang School in his studies. In fact, despite consulting the official Cheng-Zhu interpretation, Li always tried to synthesize the Cheng-Zhu, Lu-Wang and other Neo-Confucian ideas and give his own understanding in the preach of Confucian teaching.
The thesis also focuses on the comparison of the thoughts of Li with those of other official-scholars of the Cheng-Zhu School like Lu Longqi (陸隴其, 1630-1692) and Tang bin (湯斌, 1627-1687). Besides, it compares the similarities and differences in the scholarship between Li and the scholars of the Zhexi School (浙西學派) such as
as Zhang Lüxiang (張履祥, 1611-1674), Lof Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in March 2017 1629-1683) and their followers ,who had never rendered their service to the Qing, revealing the interrelationships between scholars of the Cheng-Zhu School in Early Qing.published_or_final_versionChineseMasterMaster of Philosoph
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
