Domenico Zipoli (1688-1726) and the Music in the Jesuits Missions. Evangelization and Respect for Local Cultures ?
No full textL’histoire chrétienne latino-américaine est le résultat d’une rencontre entre deux civilisations très différentes : l’Europe de la Contre-Réforme et le monde des Guaranis.Dans cette rencontre, les missionnaires jésuites occupèrent la position d’intermédiaires privilégiés entre le Paraguay et l’Europe. Ils initièrent les Guaranis aux arts et aux techniques européennes, qui rayonnaient alors de toute leur nouveauté. Ceci fut possible grâce, notamment, à la présence de nombreux musiciens de talent embarqués dans l’aventure missionnaire, dont, incontestablement, se dégage le personnage de Domenico Zipoli (1688-1726). En retour, ces musiciens recréèrent en Amérique une musique d’esthétique baroque, longtemps restée sinon ignorée du moins mythique, et aujourd’hui dévoilée.Christian history in Latin America is the result of an encounter between two verydifferent civilizations: the Europe of the Counter-Reformation and the world of theGuaranis. In this meeting, Jesuit missionaries occupied the privileged position ofintermediaries between Paraguay and Europe. They initiated the Guaranis to Europeanarts and techniques, in the full radiance of their novelty. This was possible especiallythanks to the many talented musicians embarked on the missionary adventure, where,undoubtedly, emerges the figure of Domenico Zipoli (1688-1726). In return, in Americathese musicians recreated the music of Baroque aesthetics, which remained for long if notignored, at least mythical, and is unveiled to us today
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
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
Les Orationes panegyricae de Charles Porée (1711-1729) : le Jésuite et le Prince au xviiie siècle
No full textEst-ce au mépris de toute vérité que Goujet, dans son Histoire de la littérature françoise de 1741, consacre plusieurs pages à Charles Forée ? C’est, en effet, uniquement en latin que ce régent de collège jésuite « à la prodigieuse fécondité » a composé son œuvre (ou du moins ce que nous en conservons : 13 pièces de théâtre et 19 discours). Pourtant Goujet possède deux bonnes raisons qui expliquent son choix : tout d’abord, la grande admiration qu’il porte à celui qui, il le signale, a été so..
