Visit this record in UMA's new catalogue at: https://archives.library.unimelb.edu.au/nodes/view/60215Enid Derham was an Australian university lecturer and poet. She was born on 24 March 1882 in Hawthorn, Melbourne, to Thomas Plumley Derham, Bristol-born solicitor, and Ellen Hyde. She began her education at Hessle College and was later admitted to Presbyterian Ladies College. In 1900, Enid enrolled at The University of Melbourne, studying Classical Philology under Professor T. G. Tucker. After enrolling at The University of Melbourne, she became a member of the Princess Ida Club, whose purpose was to "promote the common interests of, and to form a bond of union between the present and past women students". Enid became extensively involved in the club, and was eventually appointed to the committee. In 1903, she graduated with a B.A. (first class honours), and went on to complete an M.A. in English and modern languages in 1905. During this time she began writing poetry.
After graduating, Enid remained involved in the University of Melbourne community, tutoring English at Trinity and Ormond Colleges, the University Extension Board, and the Workers' Educational Association. In 1910, she and eighteen other women formed the Catalysts Society, a club for intellectual discussion based on the Lyceum Clubs in England. Enid presented the first paper to the society, entitled The Works of Thomas Hardy . Building on the success of the Catalysts , Derham and other original members of the group, along with other female intellectuals formed The Lyceum Club, Melbourne. Enid was also a founding member of the Classical Association of Victoria.
In 1912, a small collection of her poetry was published, entitled The Mountain Road and Other Verses along with a short play entitled Empire: A Morality Play for Children . In 1921, she was given the post of temporary lecturer at the University of Western Australia. In 1922, she was appointed as a lecturer in the English department of The University of Melbourne, a position which she held until her death in 1941. In 1924, Enid attended the Locarno Conference on New Education in Locarno, Switzerland. In 1927, she took a twelve month leave of absence, and travelled extensively throughout Egypt, the Mediterranean, Europe, and England.
Enid Derham died on 13 November, 1941. In 1958, a posthumous collection of her poetry entitled Poems was published by the Melbourne University Press.

Visit this record in UMA's new catalogue at: https://archives.library.unimelb.edu.au/nodes/view/71393Consists of photographs documenting Enid Derham’s grand tour of Egypt, the Mediterranean, Europe, and England in 1927.
Series includes photographs of ancient monuments in Egypt, Greece and Italy, trekking through the Alps, along with photographs of buildings, landscapes and local people, Christmas in Switzerland, and the return trip to Australia by ship. Photographs are annotated on the back with descriptions and numbers, presumed to be by Derham. Photographs are divided into the following groupings based on the original numbering: 1-58 On Ship and in Egypt; 60-118 Athens & Greece; 119-175 Crete; 176-306 Greece (1927); 307-421 Italy; 422-527 France; 528-[599] England (1927); 600-706 England; 707-802 Europe; 803-[899] Europe; 900-985 Europe (cont'd); 986-1095 England; 1100-1173 England & Return to Australia. Series also includes photographs that are unnumbered, but are probably part of the same trip, along with copies of family photographs, and a large studio portrait of Enid Derham.111132

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
