    The comparison between two churches similar in structure and period of construction leads to compare also the different solutions attempted to solve similar structural problems. Santa Maria Assunta of Esine (BS) and Santa Maria of Nembro (BG) were constructed at tbe end of the XV century, correspond to the same type of building, the "pieve rustica", and have similar structural problems. Interventions supported by documents took place in the same periods: the ’60s and the ’90s of this century, and it is possible to compare them. The problem in studying past restoration interventions consists generally in the poor documentation left by planners executors, but we hope that documentation of these years restorations will be a good basis for future interventions, because the only way to examine the suceess of past interventions and plan for the present is to know exactly how the conditions of the structure have evolved before, during and after the different interventions. So we hope there will and more and more documentation of restorations in the future

    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
