Feminine Sexuality and Its Subversion of Patriarchy: A Lacanian Psychoanalytic Reading of Pride and Prejudice
No full text根據拉岡派之精神分析觀點，本論文重新探討珍‧奧斯汀之小說《傲慢與偏見》中的女性顛覆精神。筆者對文本作了一個超越傳統奧斯汀批評方式的閱讀，以便將奧斯汀的顛覆特性作更深入的觀察。透過應用拉岡的精神分析理論，筆者除了嘗試探討奧斯汀作品中所描繪的當代父權制度，也將達西與伊莉莎白二人之間的關係，視為一種愛情的轉化過程。由於本研究假定《傲慢與偏見》提供了一個無法被傳統評論完整解釋的批判視野，筆者因此使用一個新的批評角度，來重新分析奧斯汀的顛覆精神。本論文實質上接受了一個全新、獨創的挑戰，意謂將珍‧奧斯汀的文字與雅克‧拉岡的理論建立對話。根據拉岡派的精神分析理論，本論文主張：奧斯汀藉由安排創意的人物環境及其幽默的言詞，將她的批評內容表達得淋漓盡致。從班奈特先生，一位冷漠的父親身上，奧斯汀準備了一個能自然慶祝女性精神的敘事背景。從班奈特太太、伊莉莎白、夏綠蒂等人的表現，她不僅以有趣的風格挑戰父權制度，也在當中表達了顛覆的聲音。從達西與伊莉莎白二人之間複雜的關係，奧斯汀展現其對女性型態的愛情懷抱信心：期望男性主體能捨棄其無法達成的慾望，以致在關係中成為女性主體；邀請女人來參與愛之劇，來處理不可能的兩性關係。This thesis re-examines Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice as a subversive novel of feminine spirit in terms of Lacanian psychoanalysis. It attempts to read Pride and Prejudice that goes beyond the traditional Austenian criticism so as to see much deeper into the subversive qualities of Austen’s work. By resorting to Lacanian psychoanalysis, it seeks to discuss the patriarchal order manifested in Austen’s time through her narrative, and to see the relationship between Darcy and Elizabeth as a transformative process of love. By assuming that Pride and Prejudice gives a critical vision that cannot be fully elucidated by the conventional reading, this research re-interprets Austen’s subversive spirit from a new critical perspective. More essentially, it takes up an original challenge, which means to create a dialogue between Jane Austen and Jacques Lacan. In terms of Lacanian psychoanalysis, it argues that Austen accomplishes a critical maneuvering both in her creative setup and witticism. Through Mr. Bennet, an indifferent father figure, she arranges a wonderful setting to celebrate the feminine spirit. Through Mrs. Bennet, Elizabeth, and Charlotte, she playfully challenges the patriarchal order and gives her subversive voices. And through the complicated relationship between Darcy and Elizabeth, Austen shows her faith in the feminine form of love, which not only asks men to give up their unreachable desire by becoming a feminine subject, but also encourages women to join in the drama of love that constantly tries to dissolve the impossibility of sexual relationship
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
