    Oral History Interview with L. E. Robinson

    No full text
    The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral monologue by L E Robinson. As a member of the 2nd Marine Raider Battalion, Robinson recounts that many Raiders suffered broken limbs while practicing landings in the rough sea amidst coral reef. He details the makeup of the battalion and the key strategies that led to its many successes, beginning with a raid on Makin Atoll. After the landing on Guadalcanal, he was transferred to the 4th Marine Division as chief of the intelligence section. In Saipan, Jumping Joe Chambers brought Evans F. Carlson to work beside Robinson as an observer. Together they led the fifth and final assault on Hill 500, with Carlson selflessly giving aid to a wounded radioman while under fire. At Tinian, Robinson’s scouts reported that a 2,500-man banzai attack was imminent. Chambers, having stockpiled over 60 machine guns, placed every man, from clerks to cooks, behind a trigger. Afterward, Robinson observed families jumping off of cliffs as Marines wept in despair, only to see it happen again on Tinian. When Robinson returned to the States, he was diagnosed with toxic fever blood poisoning and lymph gland poisoning, weighing only 108 pounds at six-and-a-half feet tall. He was declared unfit for combat and became an instructor in the Troop Leaders Training College. After discharge, Robinson attended school on the GI Bill and enjoyed a career as a research scientist

    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

    Get PDF
    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
