    «La partition de Gustave [...] laissons la dormir en paix». Suggestioni francesi nel teatro di Michail Lermontov

    No full text
    L’articolo presenta un’analisi critica del dramma "Maskarad" di Michail Lermontov, sottolineandone la complessità e il contesto storico-teatrale. Composto tra il 1835 e il 1837, "Maskarad" riflette le dinamiche sociali e culturali di San Pietroburgo, con riferimenti ai balli in maschera dell’alta società. L’opera ha subito difficoltà nella pubblicazione e rappresentazione, dovute a censura e mutamenti politici, venendo messa integralmente in scena solo nel 1864. Vengono esaminati i modelli letterari russi e europei che influenzarono Lermontov, con particolare attenzione al confronto con il libretto "Gustave III Ou Le Bal masqué" di Eugène Scribe, da cui trasse temi e strutture narrative condivise, quali gelosia e tradimento in un contesto di mascherata. La discussione evidenzia l’interconnessione tra teatro russo e francese, suggerendo che "Maskarad" si inscrive nel filone melodrammatico e romantico europeo, pur mantenendo specificità culturali russe

    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    Le famiglie cinesi in Italia: un retaggio storico secolare alla prova dell’integrazione

    No full text
    L'immigrazione cinese in Italia è da tempo - da almeno trent'anni a questa parte - soprattutto un'immigrazione di famiglie. Il ruolo del lignaggio nella storia della migrazione dal Zhejiang all'Italia, il modo in cui tuttora informa e struttura le dinamiche di inserimento sociale ed economico, l'impatto che ha sulle scelte delle prime come delle seconde generazioni dei cinesi d'Italia, condiziona in modo preponderante i processi di soggettivazione sociale della minoranza cinese in Italia. In questo articolo si fornisce una disamina articolata e aggiornata agli ultimi dati disponibili del complesso profilo sociodemografico che la forza del lignaggio contribuisce a costruire da tre generazioni

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    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
