Black e Ricœur filosofi della metafora
Get PDFLe teorie della metafora elaborate da Max Black e Paul Ricœur sono tra le più rilevanti nella filosofia novecentesca. Poiché entrambi hanno criticato la riduzione della metafora a orpello stilistico, affermandone la funzione cognitiva e l’importanza filosofica, c’è la tendenza a privilegiare gli elementi di continuità tra le loro prospettive. Ma è proprio così? Black e Ricœur non incarnano forse due punti di vista opposti sulla metafora: il punto di vista che ne enfatizza la forza euristica (Black) e quello che ne enfatizza piuttosto il potere creativo (Ricœur)? Approfondendo le riflessioni dei due filosofi al riguardo e il confronto che ciascuno di essi attiva con l’altro, questo contributo mette in luce come le loro posizioni tendano ad ampliarsi e arricchirsi, includendo anche l’aspetto inizialmente meno considerato. L’analisi delle prospettive di Black e Ricœur fornisce così l’occasione per interrogarsi sulla possibilità, nel dibattito filosofico odierno, di tenere insieme la natura sia linguistica che concettuale della metafora così come il suo valore sia euristico che innovativo
Come gli dèi così le convenzioni: una lettura di Ultimo tango a Parigi
Get PDFIn this essay we propose a new interpretation of Bernardo Bertolucci’s Last Tango in Paris (1972); starting from the Nietzschean categories of Apollonian and Dionysian, we would like to approach the topicality of both the socio-political and existential themes considered in the movie. In the analysis of the relationship between the social conventions that rule the dominant culture and the excess of life that gives itself as an irreducible rest, the stake is a possible emancipation from the logic of consensus.Il saggio propone una lettura di Ultimo tango a Parigi (1972) di Bernardo Bertolucci. La riflessione, condotta a partire dalle categorie nietzscheane di apollineo e dionisiaco, concerne l’attualità dei temi politico-sociali e esistenziali oggetto del film. Nell’analisi del rapporto tra le convenzioni sociali che regolano la cultura dominante e l’eccesso di vita che si dà come resto irriducibile, la posta in gioco è una possibile emancipazione dalla logica del consenso
La democrazia è una questione di stile (?): J. Rancière e la politica della letteratura di G. Flaubert
Get PDFThis essay offers an analysis of J. Rancière’s “politics of literature” through the style of G. Flaubert’s realist novel. Literature as a “new regime of the art of writing” is characterized by its distancing from the rules of the representative regime of Aristotelian origin, based on the hierarchy of themes and subjects of art. Literature, and in particular the realist style, suspends all forms of hierarchy and raises the anyone and the anonymous to the dignity of artistic subjects, thus defining one’s own democratic politics.Il saggio propone un’analisi della “politica della letteratura” di J. Rancière attraverso lo stile del romanzo realista di G. Flaubert. La letteratura come “nuovo regime dell’arte dello scrivere” si caratterizza per la presa di distanza dalle regole del regime rappresentativo di matrice aristotelica fondato sulla gerarchia dei temi e dei soggetti d’arte. La letteratura e in particolare lo stile realista sospende ogni forma di gerarchia e innalza alla dignità di soggetti artistici il qualunque e l’anonimo definendo in tal modo la propria politica democratica
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
