EN NOMBRE DE DIOS. LA EMPRESA MISIONERA FRENTE A LA ALTERIDAD
En nombre de Dios
In the “Introduction” to the book En nombre de Dios. La empresa misionera frente a la alteridad, Flavia Cuturi points out how along the last decades cultural anthropology has acknowledged that the theories, the conceptual instruments and methods worked out in the West to define and face alterity have a significant debt to the cognitive and practical experiences of missionary action. Anthropologists’ interest in the politics of evangelization goes beyond the social and cognitive processes (sometimes labelled under the category of “syncretism”) that those politics triggered.
Missionary enterprise has started and enacted specific linguistic and cultural dynamics with critical consequences on political and identitarian phenomena. Behind many aspects, the history of everyday missionary action reveals the politics and strategies implemented in communicating missionaries’ own interpretations of the Christian message.
The essay by Flavia Cuturi “Reductio ad unam linguam. La violencia protectora en la reductiones jesuitas”, on the Jesuit Missions in the Chiquitania region (Eastern Bolivia) introduces to the border reality of the last missions established right before the suppression of the Jesuit Order. Chiquitano Missions represent exemplar processes of reduction already experienced in other regions, that included both politics of language and communication, through their “reduction” to grammar, and the settlement of Indigenous people from different ethnolinguistic backgrounds to live in shared hamlets. The essay is gounded on both field research (1994) in the villages founded by Jesuits, and on historical data.
In the book, edited by Flavia Cuturi, there are essays by historians, musicologist, linguist, anthropologists: G. Imbruglia, J. Herczog, G. Di Fiore, A. Colajanni, M. Gnerre, C. Mattalucci, D. Bendo Soupou.
The book is a traslation of the italian edition: "In nome di Dio. L'impresa missionaria di fronte all'alterità" (2004
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
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
Storie di vita e soggettività sotto assedio
Questo articolo esplora la natura multiforme delle storie di vita e della soggettività all'interno della ricerca etnografica contemporanea. Esamina come l'aumento dell'espressione soggettiva in varie forme metta in discussione le tradizionali identità collettive e individuali. Esplorando il rapporto tra storie di vita e soggettività, lo studio mette in evidenza le crescenti piattaforme per le narrazioni personali, che vanno dai media digitali ai resoconti autobiografici. L'autore esplora le implicazioni di questa tendenza sia per la pratica antropologica sia per una più ampia comprensione della costruzione dell'identità. Attraverso un'analisi critica delle pratiche attuali e delle prospettive storiche, l'articolo esamina come gli etnografi integrano le storie di vita nella loro ricerca, riconoscendo la complessità della soggettività. Dal punto di vista metodologico, lo studio prevede un'approfondita revisione della letteratura e l'analisi di testi autobiografici ed etnografici, riflettendo sul ruolo in evoluzione della soggettività dell'etnografo nel dare forma ai risultati della ricerca. Questo esame completo fornisce spunti di riflessione sulla continua interazione tra narrazioni individuali e memoria collettiva e sottolinea l'importanza delle storie di vita nella documentazione e nell'interpretazione etnografica
