    «Lucania within us». Carlo Levi e Rocco Scotellaro

    No full text
    Si tratta di un numero speciale della rivista americana Forum Italicum, dedicato a Carlo Levi e a Rocco Scotellaro. Il volume e` suddiviso in due parti, intitolate rispettivamente Il cuore antico di Carlo Levi e Rocco Scotellaro, la liberta` contadina; sono proposte, in buona sostanza, due monografie che tuttavia tra di loro interagiscono anche per la trasversalita` di talune tematiche. Attraverso il recupero di molti materiali inediti e l'incrocio di prospettive interdisciplinari, dei due autori viene data una lettura nuova quanto convincente

    Two-step centre sampling for estimating the size, total and mean of elusive population

    No full text
    The estimation of the size of an elusive population is a frequently addressed problem in many fields of applications. The paper proposes a two step sampling strategy for the estimation of the population size, under the assumption that each unit of the population is present at least in one centre of aggregation. In the first step a sample of centres is selected and in the second step, from the selected centres, a sample of ultimate units is observed. The design extends the traditional network sampling introducing an additional step of selection. The properties of the Horvitz-Thompson type estimator are evaluated in a design-based approach: the estimator is admissible and consistent; the design is measurable. The approach is also used to estimate other descriptive parameters (the total and the mean of a study variable) for the same population. The expressions of the variance of all the proposed estimators and of their unbiased sample estimators are also proposed. The strategy is applied to a simulated population

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    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

    La Ràbata tra Ernesto De Martino e Rocco Scotellaro. Con appendice di inediti e rari

    No full text
    Il saggio ricostruisce per la prima volta in forma organica e completa il rapporto tra Ernesto De Martino e Rocco Scotellaro; il lavoro si serve di una documentazione inedita e rara capace di offrire una luce nuova e metodologicamente fondata a un approccio interdisciplinare che si avvale dell’approfondimento storico e dell’indagine filologica e testuale. Letteratura e antropologia interagiscono tra di loro e configurano vicende intellettuali che hanno ancora molto da dire a questo nostro tempo inquieto
