    À une époque où le transfert culturel s’avère un phénomène central, l'étude de la migration des artistes, des modèles et des langages constitue un axe de recherche qui permet de comprendre des phénomènes d'assimilation, d'émulation ou de refus face aux usages et aux traditions d’autres pays, voisins ou lointains. Dans cet ordre d’idées, un rôle fondamental revient au dialogue, durable et fertile, entre la France et l’Italie. Les contributions de ce volume mettent en relief des relations entre deux grandes périodes et leurs contextes culturels, le Cinquecento et le Grand siècle, et éclairent les stratégies et les modalités des processus de sélection et d’appropriation. Parmi les nombreuses expériences artistiques qui ont caractérisé la péninsule tout au long du XVIe siècle, quels sont les modèles qui ont vraiment ouvert une brèche dans les habitudes et les prédilections des Français, quel type de classicisme italien a été accueilli et selon quelles modalités? Les contagions et les « ...The contributions in this volume shed light upon the strategies and modalities of selection and appropriation of 16th century Italian models, within all artistic categories, in the French culture of the Grand Siècle

    La circolazione dei modelli italiani nell'Europa dei secoli XVI e XVII è un tema ancora poco indagato nella storiografia dell'arte e dell'architettura. L'inluenza della produzione artistica italiana del Cinquecento si rivela fondamentale per la comprensione dell'arte francese del Seicento, dalla teoria alla pittura, dall'architettura alla scultura e alla musica.The volume comprises essays on the circulation of Italian models in France, showing how fundamental the influence of 16th century artistic production is for an understanding of French art in the 17th century, from the theory of painting to that of architecture and to sculpture and music

    Il mecenatismo di Caterina de’ Medici. Pesia, feste, musica, pittura, scultura, architettura.

    In un periodo di tensioni religiose e sociali sempre più drammatiche, che finirono con l’estinzione della dinastia dei Valois, Caterina de’ Medici dirige la politica francese per quasi trent’anni. In questa veste è la prima donna del Rinascimento che riesce a promuovere un mecenatismo artistico di ampio respiro e di così lunga durata, che consolida il nuovo corso impresso all’architettura francese dagli anni Quaranta. Le sue commissioni artistiche riflettono lo stampo inconfondibile della sua duplice personalità, che tenta di conciliare posizioni e culture diverse. Questa identità complessa ed eterogenea penetrò in tutti le sue iniziative, facendo dialogare elementi disparati, aprendo nuovi orizzonti a uno scambio culturale i cui risultati sono del tutto innovativi. La competizione con le corti dei Medici, dei Farnese o dei Savoia incrementava i suoi sforzi e la regina era instancabile nell'informarsi delle novità nell’arte italiana e nel trasformarle in propri concetti e nuovi prog...The texts in this collection describe the activity of Catherine de’ Medici, who from 1559 until her death directed French politics and promoted an artistic patronage of ample scope, attempting to reconcile diverse cultures and positions and utilising art for political purposes, painting an enduring image of the Crown

    Il contributo misura alcune conseguenze del rapporto tra Nicolas Poussin e il matematico e geometra Girard Desargues, documentato da diverse fonti ma pressoché ignorato dagli studi moderni, sulla ricostruzione della cronologia di alcune opere di Poussin e esamina la diffusione del metodo prospettico di Desargues nella pittura e nell'architettura della Francia degli anni Quaranta del Seicento.The paper examines the relationship between Nicolas Poussin and the mathematician and geometrician Girard Desargues attested by different sources but almost ignored by modern litterature, and its consequences upon the chronology of some of Poussin's works, while studying the diffusion in France 1640's painting and architecture of Desargues' perspective method

    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

    Get PDF
    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
