Israel y las naciones crítica al exclusivismo religioso y político en Amós
Get PDFEl Antiguo Testamento presenta a Israel como una nación que por su pequeñez, ubicación geográfica y condiciones sociales y económicas, vive en tensión con las naciones y los pueblos vecinos. Los pueblos extranjeros son para Israel una amenaza tanto a nivel político como religioso. La autoafirmación de su propia existencia requiere que Israel se mantenga aparte, rechazando así las demás naciones y sus dioses. Por ende, según Israel, Dios lucha por este pueblo en contra de las demás naciones.Como resultado, el Antiguo Testamento se interesa poco por la apertura y el diálogo con otros pueblos y religiones. Sin embargo, podemos leer "entre líneas" en algunos textos que nos plantean como desafío una apertura en nuestra forma de comprender la revelación de Dios, nuestra propia fe y las demás
La cultura religiosa de las mujeres: Una mirada desde el antiguo Israel
No full textEn el mundo del antiguo Israel, la religión formaba parte de todos los ámbitos de la vida. No podemos hablar de economía, política, campo y ciudad, la vida de hombres, mujeres y niñez, sin que ello involucre las creencias y prácticas religiosas. Es posible que una lectura crítica del AT, con la ayuda de la arqueología y otras ciencias, nos pueda llevar por un camino en el que podamos proponer imágenes de la vida y las prácticas religiosas de las mujeres, anónimas en gran medida, que pueblan las páginas del AT. Ya que la religión es parte integrante de todas las dimensiones de la vida, hablar de la cultura religiosa de las mujeres es hablar de la vida misma
La lluvia de Yahvé y la vida en la tierra: un diálogo entre Génesis y Deuteronomio
Get PDFEl decenio del agua declarado por las Naciones Unidas para los años 2005-2015, responde a la creciente preocupación por las consecuencias para la vida en este planeta, seres humanos y naturaleza incluidos, del abuso de este líquido vital por parte de quienes dependemos de ella para sostener la vida. La declarada crisis del agua repercute en el bienestar de millones de personas que carecen -por su marginación política, social y económica- de las condiciones mínimas para sostener la vida: de agua potable, de agua para irrigación y de servicios básicos de saneamiento ambiental. Las múltiples dimensiones de la problemática del agua en el mundo actual, y su efecto sobre el planeta en el que vivimos, son tema de amplias y extensas investigaciones
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
