Fashion as Mood, Style as Atmosphere: Literary Non-Fiction on SSENSE and London Review of Looks
Full text linkAmongst the discourses that describe, construct and critique fashion, one form, which we might deem a kind of literary non-fiction that attends to how fashion, dress and social moods entwine has thus far largely escaped scholarly notice. While fashion criticism often attends to the “moods” a collection addresses, this mode of writing, primarily circulated on digital platforms, considers how clothes place us as social, affective beings within culture and everyday life, and elucidates the ways fashion interacts with one’s person in fanciful and sensory ways. Written in response to its writer’s perspective and experience, such writing uses literary devices to render palpable what clothes do, how it feels to long for a garment or lose one’s taste for dress. In this way, it helps us to understand what an attunement to fashion and/or dress looks and feels like in practice. This chapter argues that this literary non-fiction writing on fashion and dress reveals how social moods and clothing interact. It primarily considers two contemporary examples: the fashion writing published by Montreal-based luxury e-tailer SSENSE and writer Ana Kinsella’s newsletter London Review of Looks
Metamorphic evolution of the Koettlitz Group in the Koettlitz-Ferrar Glaciers region (southern Victoria Land, Antarctica)
No full textPolyphase medium- to high-grade metamorphism is described in the Koettlitz Group in the region between the Koettlitz and Ferrar Glaciers (southern Victoria Land, Antarctica). The critical metamorphic mineral assemblages define five metamorphic zones: muscovite+sillimanite and K-feldspar+sillimanite (in metapelites), biotite+calcite, Ca-amphibole, and Ca-pyroxene (in calc-silicate rocks). This metamorphic zonation, with increasing grade from the southwest to the northeast, developed during a syn-D1 progressive intermediate-P metamorphism with metamorphic peak conditions of PH2O 540 Ma, followed by magmatic accretion and low P / high T metamorphism at c. 500 Ma. All events occurred within the broadly convergent Neoproterozoic/Early Palaeozoic regime of the Ross orogenic belt in the Ross Sea sector of the palaeo-Pacific margin of Gondwana
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
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
Potere e ricchezza. Una storia economica del mondo
No full textIl potere e l’economia sono ingranaggi fondamentali per comprendere la logica di uno sviluppo storico su scala planetaria dall’anno 1000 fino a oggi. C’è però un altro polo che si confronta e si interconnette con i due precedenti per formare una relazione triadica: la finanza. La triangolazione è imprescindibile. Potere e ricchezza è una storia di globalizzazione, di integrazione dei mercati, di liberalizzazione per abbandono di una serie di vincoli posti dalle politiche alla libera attività d’impresa. Il potere è essenzialmente inteso come potere politico, potere delle armi e di logiche di egemonia di una classe dirigente su gruppi subordinati, di un’organizzazione sociale politica su altre. L’economia riguarda essenzialmente la produzione di beni e servizi e la distribuzione dei medesimi e del reddito realizzato. Il potere dell’economia è quello della logica di mercato in base alla quale un produttore vende i prodotti che i consumatori domandano
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
