Czy Gombrowicza czytano w Argentynie za jego życia?
[pol] Czy Gombrowicza czytano w Argentynie za jego życia? A jeżeli tak, to w jaki sposób? Artykuł pokazuje, jaka była recepcja autora Trans-Atlantyku od jego przybycia do Buenos Aires aż do śmierci we Francji. Artykuł jest podzielony na trzy rozdziały. Każdy z nich przedstawia jedną z trzech dekad życia Witolda Gombrowicz - dwie, kiedy mieszkał w Argentynie, oraz ostatnią, kiedy powrócił do Europy. Autor wspomina o inicjalnych próbach nawiązania kontaktu z pisarzami argentyńskimi (na przykład z Borgesem czy czasopismem ¿Sur'), opublikowaniu pierwszych tekstów oraz zbiorowego tłumaczenia Ferdydurke w Café Rex w latach czterdziestych, by zauważyć, że w latach pięćdziesiątych Gombrowicz pogodził się z faktem pisarskiego nieistnienia w kraju swej emigracji i zmienił strategię autopromocji. Dopiero po powrocie do Europy spotkał się z pierwszymi dowodami uznania w Argentynie, czemu towarzyszyła publikacja Diario argentino (Dziennik argentyński, wybór z Dziennika przygotowany z myślą o czytelniku argentyńskim). Pau Freixa Terradas zarysowuje bardziej gorzki niż słodki los twórczości Gombrowicza w Argentynie i pokazuje, w jakiej mierze i w jaki sposób czytano polskiego pisarza w jego drugiej ojczyźnie.[eng] This article presents the Argentinian reception of the author of Trans-Atlantyk from his arrival in Buenos Aires until his death in France. The article is divided into three parts and each of them is dedicated to one of the three last decades of Witold Gombrowicz’s life. The author mentions the initial attempts of establishing relations with Argentinian writers (Jorge Luis Borges, for example, or the circle of the Sur magazine), first publication of texts as well as the collective translation of Ferdydurke in Café Rex during the 1960s, and recognizes that sometime in the 1950s Gombrowicz made peace with the fact of his literary obscurity in the land of his emigration, therefore changing his strategy of self-promotion. Only after he returned to Europe did the first signs of recognition reach him from Argentina, where the Diario argentino was just published (it was a selection of writings from Gombrowicz’s Diary for the Argentine reader)
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
Tadeusz Borowski, testimoni de l’horror dels camps de concentració i extermini nazis
Treballs Finals de Grau de Llengües i Literatures Modernes. Facultat de Filologia. Universitat de Barcelona, Curs: 2018-2019, Tutor: Pau Freixa Terradas[cat] El poeta polonès Tadeusz Borowski va ser un dels primers supervivents dels camps de
concentració i d’extermini nazis en fer públic el seu testimoni de l’horror en una obra
dura i, alhora, cínica on evidencia la crueltat de l’Holocaust. Denuncia una obvietat molt
incòmoda, que la supervivència d’un significa la mort d’altres. En forma de breus relats,
l’autor i el protagonista descriuen pinzellades anecdòtiques de la realitat als camps. Una
estada superior a l’any i la seva inclusió en diferents kommandos i en diferents camps més
la seva habilitat literària permeten que l’experiència individual cobri forma d’experiència
col·lectiva. No obstant evocar la ignonímia de les cambres de gas, va ser amb el gas de la
seva cuina com va decidir posar fi a la seva vida, a l’edat de 29 anys.[eng] The Polish poet Tadeusz Borowski was one of the first survivors from/of the Nazi
concentration and extermination camps to make public his testimony of horror in a hard
and cynical literary work on the evidence of the cruelty of the Holocaust. He denounces
a very uncomfortable obviousness, that the survival of one means the death of anothers.
Through short stories, the author and the protagonist describe some anecdotes of the
reality in the camps. A stay longer than a year and his inclusion in different commands
and in different camps plus his literary hability allow individual experience to take the
form of collective experience. Nevertheless, evoking the ignominy of the gas chambers,
it was with the gas of his kitchen that he decided to end his life, at the age of 29
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
II Kongres Gombrowiczowski w Buenos Aires... w atmosferze czysto gombrowiczowskiej
W dniach 12-18 sierpnia 2019 roku odbył się w Buenos Aires II Międzynarodowy Kongres Gombrowiczowski (Segundo Congreso Gombrowicz), który upamiętnił 50. rocznicę śmierci polskiego pisarza. Był on kontynuacją I Kongresu Gombrowiczowskiego, który obradował w stolicy Argentyny w 2014 roku.
