Copier/Coller. Ecriture et réécriture chez Voltaire
No full textIl volume raccoglie gli atti del Colloque International che è stato organizzato a Pisa dal sottoscritto insieme con i colleghi francesi Olivier Ferret e Catherine Volpilhac-Auger. Il colloquio tenutosi dal 30 giugno al 2 luglio 2005, ha riunito a Pisa i membri delle due équipes che attualmente lavorano alle Œuvres complètes di Voltaire presso la Voltaire Foundation di Oxford, attendendo l’una alla edizione dell’Essai sur les mœurs, l’altra, all’edizione delle Questions sur l’Encyclopédie. Il volume raccoglie e pubblica il testo di 17 interventi letti a Pisa. Il primo dei testi pubblicati è di Nicholas Cronk, l’attuale direttore della Voltaire Foundation di Oxford. Figura nel volume anche l’intervento del sottoscritto «Voltaire et l’ Histoire des papes de F. Bruys » (per cui vedere il titolo relativo)
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
Biographie & Politique
No full textLes nombreuses études consacrées aux diverses formes de l'écriture biographique abordent rarement la période allant de l'Ancien Régime à la Restauration. Cette période voit pourtant l'apparition, sinon de la chose, du moins du mot biographie et les débuts d'une forte inscription politique du genre. La biographie n'est pas seulement l'élaboration d'une représentation du politique : elle peut aussi être considérée, en ce qu'elle dévoile de la vie privée de personnes publiques, comme un geste politique. Organisé en quatre parties, qui explorent successivement les modalités par lesquelles la biographie tente d'agir, d'édifier, de justifier et d'interpréter, l'ouvrage analyse les modes de représentation de personnalités comme les souverains et leur cour, de Louis XV à Louis XVIII en passant par Napoléon, les révolutionnaires (Robespierre, les feuillants, Sieyès), les savants (Franklin) ou les écrivains (Rousseau), et propose une réflexion sur l'évolution du regard qui constitue les « grands hommes ». Il montre comment l'hybridation des genres conduit à une reconfiguration des modèles antérieurs et à une refondation du biographique, riches de prolongements dans les périodes suivantes
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
