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
What Role Does the Mesolithic Substratum Play in the Neolithization of the Grands Causses? Study of the Lithic Industry of Combe-Grèze (Cresse Commune, Aveyron)
No full textIn the Grands Causses region, south of the Massif Central, there are a few sites attributed to the original Early Neolithic, (6th millennium). Due to their position at the edge of the region in which the southern Cardial emerged, they play an important role in debates concerning the Neolithization of southern France. Were these autochthonous sites with a production economy invented without influence from the Cardial domain? Or were they occupied by acculturated Mesolithic groups? Were their facies peripheral to the Cardial?The site of Combe-Grèze, excavated in the 1970’s by Jean Maury and Georges Costantini, was used like the others to develop these different theoretical models. For this reason, it appeared useful to reexamine the lithic assemblage of this site with the aim of distinguishing the different techno-typological entities based on a reconstruction of their ‘chaînes opératoires’ (reduction sequences). This study can be considered as an additional element of response to questions concerning the borrowing and transmitting of technical know-how between the horizons of the Second Mesolithic and the Early Neolithic. It is also intended to explore the role of the Mesolithic substratum in the emergence of a production economy in this region that is peripheral to the Mediterranean zone considered to be fully Neolithic
La Néolithisation des Causses méridionaux du Larzac et de Sauveterre, rapport de prospection thématique
No full textVariations 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
The Cardial–Epicardial Early Neolithic of Lower Rhône Valley (South-Eastern France): A Lithic Perspective
No full textInternational audienceAbstract In the lower Rhône Valley, many sites are attributed to the Early Neolithic and dated between 5600 and 4800 cal. BC. According to their ceramic production, they are associated with two cultural facies: the Cardial and the Epicardial. The relation between these two entities is still under debate (chronological, cultural or functional distinctions?). However, little is known about the lithic production of the region since the chipped stone industries are rarely evoked in the socioeconomic and cultural understanding of these first agropastoral societies. The objective of this paper is to propose a regional synthesis regarding Early Neolithic lithic industries, based on typo-technological studies of several assemblages in the Rhône Valley: The Montclus rockshelter (layers 5 to 2), the Baume de Ronze rockshelter, Le Taï and the Aigle cave. These sites are considered to be the key sites for understanding the Cardial/Epicardial complex in this area, but their lithic assemblages have never been thoroughly studied. Special attention will be given to the factors of variability or, on the contrary, to the permanence in the “ schema opératoire” and we will propose explanations related to geological, functional, chronological and cultural constraints. We will also focus on lithic blade production made from honey flint and the spacialisation of “ chaine opératoire ” which could highlight circulation of this raw material and specialised distribution network. Finally, this synthesis is based on a renewed corpus of radiocarbon dates in order to understand this evolutionary dynamic as finely as possible
Quel rôle joue le substrat mésolithique dans le processus de néolithisation des grands causses ? Étude de l'industrie lithique de Combe-Grèze (commune de la Cresse, Aveyron)
No full textLa région des Grands Causses, au Sud du Massif central, présente au VIe millénaire quelques sites attribués à un Néolithique ancien original, qui par leur position, en marge de la région d’apparition du Cardial méridional, ont joué un rôle important dans les débats concernant la néolithisation du Sud de la France : sommes-nous face à des sociétés autochtones, inventant l’économie de production de manière indépendante à la sphère cardiale ? S’agit-il plutôt de groupes mésolithiques acculturés ? De faciès périphériques au Cardial ?Le site de Combe-Grèze, fouillé dans les années 1970 par Jean Maury et Georges Costantini, a été utilisé comme les autres pour l’élaboration de ces différents modèles théoriques. C’est pourquoi il a semblé opportun de réexaminer la série lithique de ce gisement dans le but d’individualiser différentes sphères techno-typologiques, à partir de la restitution des chaînes opératoires en présence. Cette étude peut être considérée comme un jalon supplémentaire pour répondre à la question des emprunts et transmissions de savoir-faire techniques entre les horizons du second Mésolithique et du Néolithique ancien. Elle a également pour but d’interroger le rôle du substrat mésolithique dans l’émergence de l’économie de production, dans cette région périphérique de la zone méditerranéenne considérée comme pleinement néolithique
The Neolithisation of southern France : Approach of the typo-technological variability of lithic industries
No full textAutour du 6e millénaire avant notre ère, le sud de la France est concerné par de profonds bouleversements culturels et socio-économiques, qui voient l’émergence des pratiques d’agriculture et d’élevage. Historiquement, ce sont les données céramiques qui ont été principalement mobilisées pour établir le cadre évolutif de ce premier Néolithique. Pourtant, les industries de pierre taillée constituent aussi une bonne clé d’accès à ce processus. Elles permettent de l’appréhender sur la longue durée, puisqu’elles sont mises en œuvre à la fois par les dernières sociétés de prédations et les premières sociétés agropastorales. L’étude de ce registre documentaire permet alors d’approcher des phénomènes culturels, tels que les potentielles interactions entre groupes mésolithiques et néolithiques.Ce travail cherche à caractériser la variabilité typo-technologique des industries de pierre taillée, à travers l’étude de huit séries lithiques, localisées dans deux zones ateliers, la basse vallée du Rhône et l’actuel département de l’Aveyron. Les résultats permettent de proposer un phasage chronologique du second Mésolithique à partir de la séquence castelnovienne de la Baume de Montclus ; de préciser la variabilité et l’évolution des schémas opératoires du Néolithique ancien cardial s.l., à partir de plusieurs gisements de la basse vallée du Rhône ; de renouveler notre perception de la néolithisation des arrière-pays, par le biais d’un examen des contextes archéologiques et des assemblages issus de plusieurs sites aveyronnais. Ce dernier point permet de mettre en évidence des mélanges stratigraphiques des plusieurs industries et de proposer l’hypothèse de variabilité fonctionnelle comme de recomposition culturelle dans ces contextes continentaux.Around the 6th millennium BC, southern France was affected by deep cultural and socio-economic changes; a turning point in subsistence agriculture and husbandry. Historically, ceramic data have mainly been used to establish the chronocultural framework of this first Neolithic period. However, lithic industries are good way of inquiring into this process: they allow us to understand it over the long term, since they are implemented by both the latest predation groups and the first agropastoral societies. Then, the study of lithic data contributes to a better understanding of cultural phenomena, such as potential interactions between mesolithic and neolithic groups. The aim of this work is to characterise the typo-technological variability of the lithic industries, through the analysis of 8 assemblages, located in two workshop areas: the lower Rhône valley and the current department of Aveyron. The results enable us to propose a chronological phasing of the second Mesolithic, based on the castelnovian sequence of the Montclus rock shelter; to specify the variability and evolution of the reduction sequence of the Cardial, based on several assemblages of the lower Rhône Valley; to renew our perception of the continental neolithisation, through a revision of archaeological context and lithic analysis from several sites in Aveyron. This latest point highlights stratigraphical mixtures, evidence of functional variability and/or cultural recombining in these continental contexts
