La "città più città d'Italia" e l'Esposizione del 1881
Considered within the long process through which Milan has become a “city of exhibitions”, the “Mostra nazionale delle Arti e dell’Industria” 1881 is of crucial relevance. On that occasion, twenty years after the country’s unification, the roaring Excelsior Ball in the background, Milan displayed its self-portrait in the pavilions under the motto “Labor vincit omnia”, standing as “moral capital of Italy”. Such an ambitious project relied on a series of volumes – Mediolanum (Vallardi), Milano 1881 (Ottino), Milano e i suoi dintorni (Civelli), – offering the radiant image of a close and hard-working community. In this perspective, such a close collaboration between the ruling class and Milan-based intellectuals during the exhibition represented a model: promoted by a state-of-the-art publishing industry, the initiative fostered a synergy
between the educated members of society, be them Milan-born or adoptive, who gathered in institutional venues as well as within the “repubblica della carta sporca”. Writers and journalists, engineers and economists, technicians and scientists, engravers and artists were all committed to sketch the portrait of the “città più città d’Italia” (Verga). They all stood on the common ground provided by a sound value system, never giving way to bombastic statements, and by the shared interests of a modern civil
society: a common ground made firmer by the Enlightenment and Romantic tradition and a Smilesian confidence in positivist culture. Milan’s hard-working ethics is well summarized in the slogans of Milanese pride: initiative, inter-class solidarity, lay tolerance and charitable philanthropy; a strong tie to “cose serie, cose sode”; an idea of progress meant as cautious evolution; the promotion of a wide-ranging knowledge able to combine the humanities with “utili cognizioni”, strongly suspicious of any kind of abstraction. Common sense, intended as the combination of balance and integrity, was considered as the rule of daily life, while the public sphere was governed by an efficient local government priding itself on being miles away from the idle talk of the political capital. Recovering Cattaneo’s motto - “convertire il mondo moderno in mondo nostro” - the “moral capital” rose to the challenge of industrial progress within the European context, against any form of short-sighted and regressive entrenchment
Pinacoteca del Museo Civico di Rieti
"La ristrutturazione della Pinacoteca trae fondamento dalla sua storia, da quella dell'edificio che la ospita, insieme alla riconsiderazione del suo contesto socioculturale. Il nuovo ordinamento si basa su un progetto scientifico e un progetto architettonico strettamente legati tra loro: uno ha prodotto l'altro, uno è precisato dall'atro" (G. Rosa
Sezione archeologica del Museo Civico di Rieti
".... il museo è una grande macchina: una struttura architettonico-museale totalmente mobile e trasformabile. Una macchina, cioé, per mostrare e interpretare nello stesso tempo: la scena del teatro-museo" (G. Rosa
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
