    Mário de Andrade and Waldemar Henrique are conceptualized Brazilian artists. The first one as intellectual of renowned importance inside the modernist movement, of the agitated Week of 1922 at the countless inquiries and studies on music and folklore. He was an intellectual forming of an intelligence of the national thought. Waldemar Henrique was the author of a gigantic musical work, his first compositions raise it ―Olhos verdes‖, of 1922, in the Rio receiving the denomination of ―Valsinha do Marajó‖ and ―Minha Terra‖, of 1923. In the decade of thirty his work was enlarged thematically stretching out to causes of black folklore, to dramatic regional dances, to songs and legends of the Amazon region. His studies of the music flowed together with the folklore, and his name constantly is remembered by the association that lasts a long time between his artistic work and the Amazon region. This study is based on the ―notion of experience‖ of the Amazon region on these two intellectuals, at a moment of his works in which this place flows together for the set of legends that gives support and builds the narrative of Macunaíma in Mário de Andrade and for the musical series inspired in the legendary Amazonian universe of Waldemar Henrique. When it was born and created in these bushes and rivers, and in the city of Belém, the other, an inveterate traveler to know new things and to realize, how it affirms ―other Brazil‘s‖. Similarities and differences of his approaches move us to conclusions on the Amazon region itself.Mário de Andrade e Waldemar Henrique são conceituados artistas brasileiros. O primeiro como intelectual de renomada importância dentro do movimento modernista, da agitada Semana de 1922 às inúmeras pesquisas e estudos sobre música e folclore. Foi um intelectual formador de uma inteligência do pensamento nacional. Waldemar Henrique foi o autor de uma gigantesca obra musical, suas primeiras composições remontam a ―Olhos verdes‖, de 1922, no Rio de Janeiro recebendo a denominação de ―Valsinha do Marajó‖, e ―Minha Terra‖, de 1923. Na década de trinta o seu trabalho ampliou-se tematicamente estendendo-se a motivos de folclore negro, a danças dramáticas regionais, a canções e lendas da Amazônia. Seus estudos de música assim confluíram com o folclore e seu nome constantemente é lembrado pela associação que perdura entre seu trabalho artístico e a Amazônia. Este estudo fundamenta-se na ―noção de experiência‖ da Amazônia, nestes dois intelectuais, em um momento de suas obras em que este lugar conflui pelo conjunto de lendas que dá suporte e constrói a narrativa de Macunaíma, em Mário de Andrade, e pela série musical inspirada no universo lendário amazônico de Waldemar Henrique. Um, nascido e criado nesses matos e rios, nos dá conta de um olhar nativo, o outro, um viajante a conhecer coisas novas e a perceber, como afirma, ―outros brasis‖. Semelhanças e diferenças de suas abordagens movem-nos a conclusões sobre a própria Amazônia

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    A Amazônia de Waldemar Henrique e de Mário de Andrade no modernismo brasileiro (1927-1945)

    Full text link
    O trabalho defende a ideia de que no bojo do movimento modernista a Amazônia ganhou em força e identidade, em potencialidades simbólicas de sua realidade constituinte. Quando comparada a um Brasil moderno foi tomada em um mistério renovado, revelando abordagens artísticas e visões de nacionalidade. Em Waldemar Henrique e Mário de Andrade, por meio de seus trabalhos, a série de Lendas Amazônicas do músico paraense e no literato paulista, de modo especial, o trabalho Macunaíma e o Turista Aprendiz. Este trabalho perscruta cada vez mais a Amazônia e este forte elemento de atração que exerce, em nosso enfoque, sobre o intelectual e o artista.Palavras-chave: Waldemar Henrique; Mário de Andrade; Amazônia; Modernismo

    Variations on the Author

    “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

    Full text link
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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

    We 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
