Disturbing pasts: Memories, controversies and creativity
Full text linkThis themed issue of the Open Arts Journal, ‘Disturbing pasts: Memories, controversies and creativity’, brings together a range of artists, curators, policy-makers and academics from around the world, who explore creative engagements with controversial and traumatic pasts in art practice, curating and museums. The material is presented in three parts: ‘Difficult Pasts and Public Space’ (writings on historical issues and museums), ‘Visual Investigations’ (artists’ statements and criticism), and ‘Collaborations’ (visual analysis and artist-scholar pairings of writings and original artworks). This collection was developed through a two-year international research project led by Leon Wainwright, which involved three consortia of researchers from universities throughout Europe, and focused on a major public event at the Museum of Ethnology Vienna/ Weltmuseum, Wien (November 2011). The project is funded by HERA (Humanities in the European Research Area, the European Science Foundation)
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
The home dairy
No full textCitation: Edwards, Elizabeth. The home dairy. Senior thesis, Kansas State Agricultural College, 1892.Morse Department of Special CollectionsIntroduction: A supply of good milk and butter is among the necessities in every home. The many substantial and dainty articles of food made from these products makes it essential that they be palatable and unadulterated. In order, however, to obtain the best results from the dairy, it is important to consider wisely the erection of a convenient, well ventilated dairy building, and also a careful management of the milk after it is drawn until the cream is made into butter. A good dairy building is found wanting however, in the many farm-houses of today, and the milk that is supplied to the house is consequently strained into crocks and pans and placed on a shelf somewhere out of the way. The most convenient or common place is in a damp musty cellar where a little of everything is kept; as potatoes, turnips, cabbage, onions, the gradual decomposition of which makes the cellar a very unfit place to keep milk good and sweet. The dairy may be constructed as a separate building or it may be connected with the home. If there be a running stream not far from the house and from the cow stable, it would be to an advantage to build a dairy of moderate size near it. The dairy building should be partitioned off into a milk room, a butter room, and a small room where the dairy utensils might be washed
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
The search for disarmament: 1946-1961, 1961
Full text linkThe necessities of survival in an atomic age have com-manded a desperate urgency to the quest for security. However, by their very nature, they have largely depleted that quest of meaning and content. Men often have been prompted by fear to negotiate and the same fear has prevented agreement. It is evident, however, that there can be no trust without disarmament and no disarmament without trust. Meanwhile, the potential of extermination develops to a stage where mere mis-calculation or accident could unleash destruction. To make the situation even more explosive, it is probable that states, which are now less skilled in the techniques of self-discipline, may acquire that power in the near future.The unsuccessful endeavor of the past sixteen years to institute a system for the regulation of armaments has been the topic of probing research and heated controversy. Each analyst makes his own interpretation of the facts and holds stubbornly to his own argument. This writer also has a point of view, and there will doubtless be those who vehemently contend differently. However, the hope is that this attempt to analyze The Search For Disarmament: 1946-1961 will assist in pointing out the problems and will contribute something to the perception of the tremendous job of preventing mass human destruction
