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
The Late Old Kingdom Archive from the Pyramid Complex of Netjerkhet
No full textDuring excavations at the pyramid complex of Netjerkhet at Saqqara in the 1920s, Firth and Quibell discovered a purpose-built archive with fragments of papyri still in situ. Although this important discovery received scant notice in the published reports, it can be determined that the archive was constructed when ”Temple T” or the ”Building with three fluted columns” was converted into an administrative centre around 2400 BC. The archive consists of a long corridor flanked by 26 mud-brick niches and it had the estimated capacity to store several thousand papyri. The contents of the papyri found in the niches suggests that the administrative centre was used by the vizier and that it was involved in the construction of the royal pyramids during the late Old Kingdom
Les noms des pains en Égypte ancienne: étude lexicologique
No full textDans la majorité des cultures contemporaines, le pain, sous une forme ou une autre, est à la base de l'alimentation. Il en allait de même dans l'antiquité, et plus particulièrement en Égypte. Pourtant, alors que plus d'une centaine de variétés de pains sont répertoriées dans les sources égyptiennes, ce sujet n'avait pas reçu l'attention escomptée dans la recherche moderne. Cette étude lexicologique analyse quarante-huit dénominations de pains et leur développement à travers les textes égyptiens, depuis l'Ancien Empire jusqu'à la période tardive. Les graphies, les déterminatifs et les racines de chaque variété ont été étudiés en détail ; la place de ces pains dans la documentation égyptienne a aussi fait l'objet de plusieurs examens approfondis. Ces analyses ponctuelles ont servi de point de départ à plusieurs synthèses qui envisagent ces pains sous un jour plus large
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
À propos des toponymes « Djêmé » d'Égypte pharaonique
No full textL'étude des différentes graphies employées pour les toponymes traditionnellement traduits par « Djêmé », en suivant leur chronologie, permet de proposer un schéma explicatif cohérent de l'emploi de ces graphies avant l'époque ptolémaïque. Cet aperçu témoigne de la remarquable circulation des systèmes théologiques et de leur continuelle adaptation au gré de synthèses locales.The study, in a chronological order, of the different spellings used for toponyms traditionally translated by "Djeme", makes it possible to propose a coherent explanatory pattern for the use of these spellings before the Ptolemaic period. This overview testifies to the remarkable circulation of theological systems and their continual adaptation to local syntheses
