L’art du livre dans l’Inde des sultanats. Paris, Presses de l’Université Paris-Sorbonne, 2008, 367 p., 4 cartes, 63 ill. (coll. Islam)
Get PDFDans cet ouvrage issu de sa thèse de doctorat, E. Brac de la Perrière nous offre une étude complète et minutieuse de la production manuscrite dans ce que l’on nomme successivement l’Inde du sultanat de Delhi et l’Inde des sultanats. Ce travail embrasse ainsi près de quatre siècles, depuis la fondation du sultanat de Delhi par Qoṭb al-dīn Aybak en 1206 jusqu’au dernier quart du XVIe siècle. Mais ce livre constitue surtout la première synthèse concernant l’art du livre en territoire indien sous..
Emprunts post-îlkhânides dans l'enluminure mamelouke du IX/XVème sciècle
No full textL'art de l'enluminure qui s'épanouit au IXème/XVème siècle en Égypte et Syrie mameloukes constitue un substrat particulièrement intéressant pour l'étude des transferts artistiques qui se sont opérés depuis la sphère iranienne. Bien que la majorité des manuscrits de cette époque reste marquée visuellement par la tradition proche-orientale, certains font au contraire clairement référence à des prototypes persans, n 'hésitant pas à reléguer au second plan leur héritage syro-égyptien. Quelles peuvent donc être les raisons d'être d'une telle orientation artistique ? Et que nous apprennent-elles du contexte de production de ces manuscrits
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
Arabic Documents from early Islamic Khurasan. London, The Nour Foundation, 2007, 183 p., index, biblio., 32 ill. N&B.
Get PDFLa Nasser D. Khalili Collection abrite deux ensembles d’archives familiales couvrant le premier et le second siècles de l’hégire. L’un est d’origine bactrienne et a été analysé par N. Sims-Williams en 2000 ; l’autre ensemble documentaire, d’origine arabe et au centre de cette étude menée par G. Khan, se révèle unique à plus d’un titre. L’introduction, qui constitue en fait toute la première moitié de l’ouvrage, dresse les grandes lignes du contexte historique, celui du Khurasan au début de l..

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
