Una bottega di vasai nel Palazzo delle Esposizioni. La mostra Terra al MIC Faenza e nella Chiesa di Santa Maria dell’Angelo a Faenza
Agli inizi del 2023 in seguito ad alcuni lavori di riqualificazione del Palazzo delle Esposizioni di Faenza sono stati effettuati alcuni scavi archeologici per verificare la presenza di evidenze da tutelare così da coordinare i nuovi interventi con il deposito sepolto. Gli interventi sono stati diretti dalla Soprintendenza Archeologia Belle Arti e Paesaggio per le province di Ravenna, Forlì-Cesena e Rimini e affidati a una società privata grazie al finanziamento del Comune di Faenza. Nel corso dei lavori sono emerse strutture e materiali di una officina di ceramisti faentini di età rinascimentale e moderna, straordinaria nella sua conservazione e unica nella sua complessità. È stata trovata in un quartiere dove sono molto conosciuti diversi ritrovamenti occasionali simili e dove sono stati effettuati scavi di straordinaria importanza
Tra Bizantini e Longobardi: economia e circolazione di prodotti mediterranei nelle Mar-che altomedievali (secoli VI-VIII)
Gli scavi archeologici e le scoperte degli ultimi venti anni hanno cambiato notevolmente il quadro delle attestazioni dei prodotti ceramici e della circolazione delle merci negli insediamenti marchigiani, soprattutto per quel che riguarda il periodo compreso tra VI e VIII secolo, rispetto a quanto conosciuto nella raccolta di testi in onore di Jhon Hayes. In questo contributo cercherò di presentare i dati disponibili di queste nuove ricerche condotte su siti costieri e nell’interno dei territori della Pentapoli e del ducato di Spoleto. Nuovi importanti dati provengono da contesti urbani di Ascoli e dal Villaggio del Fanciullo, ma anche da Senigallia e Ancona, oltre che dai numerosi scavi condotti da numerosi ricercatori che lavorano nell’hinterland delle vallate appenniniche. Se da un lato viene confermata la crescita di prodotti da trasporto orientali tra la metà del VI secolo e i due secoli successivi, la diffusione del vasellame da mensa tunisino dimostra una copertura molto estesa e una mobilità delle merci mediterranee sia nei territori longobardi sia in quelli controllati dall’imperatore bizantino. Tenterò anche di verificare la risposta dei territori di questa vasta regione alla crisi della metà del VI secolo e come gli imprenditori rurali proveranno a riorganizzare la produttività delle aziende romane dismesse con la creazione di nuove forme di sfruttamento agrario e con diverse scelte insediative rispetto all’antichità.Archaeological excavations and discoveries of the last twenty years have significantly changed the picture of the attestations of ceramic products and the circulation of goods in the Marche settlements, especially regarding the period between the 6th and 8th centuries, compared to what is known in the proceedings of the conference held in honor of John Hayes. In this paper, I will present the available data from this new research conducted on coastal sites and within the territories of the Pentapolis and the Duchy of Spoleto. Important new data comes from the urban contexts of Ascoli and the Villaggio del Fanciullo, but also from Senigallia and Ancona, as well as from the numerous excavations conducted by numerous researchers working in the hinterland of the Apennine valleys. Suppose on the one hand, the growth of oriental transport products between the mid-6th century and the following two centuries is confirmed. In that case, the diffusion of Tunisian tableware demonstrates a very extensive coverage and mobility of Mediterranean goods both in the Lombard and controlled territories by the Byzantine emperor. I will also try to verify the response of the territories of this vast region to the crisis of the mid-6th century and how rural entrepreneurs will try to reorganize the productivity of abandoned Roman companies by creating new forms of agricultural exploitation and with different settlement choices compared to antiquity
Ecclesia S. Mariae de Turre cum capellis suis – identification of an earlier phase of the Church of the Holy Cross at Tar – Stancija Blek (Tar-Vabriga – Torre-Abrega, Istria)
The paper reports the results of the first campaign of excavations at the Church of the Holy Cross near Stancija Blek (Tar-Vabriga – Torre-Abrega municipality, Istria), which is close to the multiphase settlement of Old Tar. A trial trench behind the rear wall of the church and along its southern perimetral wall revealed an earlier building and one grave.
Though the uncovered remains are scanty, several distinct architectural designs allow us to propose a first typological determination of the newly discovered structure and shed light on subsequent development at the site
La Romagna tra tarda Antichità e alto Medioevo
In questo contributo viene presentata una sintesi dei dati archeologici relativi alle trasformazioni delle città e del territorio romagnolo nel periodo di passaggio dalla tarda Antichità all'alto Medioevo, mostrando la crescita insediativa e il dinamismo economico delle comunità urbane e rurali fino al secolo VIII.The numerous contributions of recent research on the medieval archaeology of the Marche region allow us to overcome the lack of archaeological information that has limited studies in the past. Furthermore, this new data collection allows us to draw a more complete synthesis. As a result, we can highlight some phenomena that characterise the evolution of the regional landscape, in the transition between Antiquity and the Middle Ages. Urban archaeology shows how, in the continuously inhabited centres, there was ruralisation in some areas and, in others, the growth of new agglomerations affecting various sectors of ancient cities (Ascoli, Camerino, Cagli). These new urban centres are distributed in significant points, often connected with the road network that branches off into the surrounding area. Only with urban development of a fully medieval age would many urban areas once again be occupied extensively, often destroying and reusing the remains of the surviving Roman buildings. A different destiny characterises some urban centres in low valleys or valley outlets, which were abandoned according to different dynamics and at different times, dictated above all by environmental changes, with different outcomes in each valley (Fossombrone, Suasa, Ostra, Potenza, Cupra). The historical curve of the urban centres and the environmental changes also influenced the development of the rural population and the different fortunes of the monasteries and the pievi that rose in the surrounding territor
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
