Intertestualità nell'opera di Violette Leduc
No full textExploiting the theories about intertextuality as a literary phenomena, this study aims to draw a kind of map of the intertextual relationships between the work of Violette Leduc and three authors who were part of her life and who had an impact on her writing, namely, Maurice Sachs, Jean Genet and Simone de Beauvoir. Starting from the description of the theories concerning intertextuality, the present work focuses on the so-called 'internal' intertextuality, that is, the reworking of a text within another text by the same author – a fairly common writing practice among Violette Leduc and the three authors at the centre of this analysis – and a cross-reading of the work of the three authors in the light of the intertextual relationships that informs a certain part of their production (1932-1973).
The intertextual analysis of Leduc's work can contribute to a new understanding of the creative process of the work by underlining the literary value of a writer too often forgotten in the panorama of French literary history
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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 linkWe 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
...E TUTTO IL RESTO È LETTERATURA. TRA ATTORE E POETA. PER UN'INTERPRETAZIONE DI PAUL VERLAINE
No full textThe following article creates a parallel between the two phases of the literary work of French poet Paul Verlaine and the reflections on what an actor can do concerning the interpretation of his poems.
Starting from the parnassian period of his work, focused on the pursuit of objectivity and technical perfection (art for art's sake) closely linked to the classical canons, the contribution shows how Verlaine's poetry had never been truly without its intimate feature. The meeting with the young poet Arthur Rimbaud changed Verlaine's writing into a new way of conceiving poetry and poet's mission: a combination of musicality, 'unpoetical' words taken by the common language and sensibility.
Likewise, the actor struggled between choosing a formal interpretation of the author in which the text is point of departure and destination or, on the contrary, decide for a more intimate interpretation in which subjectivity is likely to overcome the text
