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
Aspects of population ecology of Testudo hermanni hermanni, from the Asinara Island, NW Sardinia (Italy, Western Mediterranean Sea): preliminary data
No full textHermann’s tortoise (Testudo hermanni Gmelin) of the Island of Asinara (NW Sardinia, Italy) has been
studied during a period of four seasons. This population consisted of several individuals of large body size, some
of them being amongst the largest known for this species. Bony shells of males were commonly found on this
island, while the same was not true for female bony shells. Although wild boars (Sus scrofa) are potential large
sized predators for tortoises, the analysis of carapace morphology did not reveal injuries signs due to bites. Male
tortoises could die due to up-turning, as the result of male-male combats during the mating season, to possible
hyperthermia when upturned, and to predation carried out by birds particularly when upturned. Estimated density
was 4.88 individuals ha¡1 , which was similar to that of conspeci cs from other areas studied so far
