EpiDoc and Epigraphic Training in the Era of Remote and Hybrid Teaching
Die Notwendigkeit, die meisten akademischen Aktivitäten aufgrund der COVID-19-Pandemie ganz oder teilweise ins Internet zu verlagern, zwang die epigraphische Gemeinschaft, neue Wege zu finden, um EpiDoc und epigraphische Schulungen aus der Ferne oder in hybriden Formen anzubieten. Die Experimente der letzten zwei Jahre haben zu einer Vielzahl von Lehrkonzepten geführt, die von vollständig synchronen bis zu vollständig asynchronen Schulungsveranstaltungen reichen. Ziel des Papiers ist es, solche Konzepte zu veranschaulichen und ihre Auswirkungen zu untersuchen, wobei auch die verschiedenen Instrumente und Methoden beschrieben werden, die in den letzten zwei Jahren eingesetzt wurden. Der Beitrag befasst sich auch mit den Lehren, die aus den verschiedenen Erfahrungen und den Rückmeldungen der Studierenden gezogen wurden, und enthält einige Überlegungen zu Fragen der Nachhaltigkeit im Zusammenhang mit Fernunterricht und Hybridunterricht
Inscriptions of Roman Tripolitania 2021
An enhanced and expanded collection based on Inscriptions of Roman Tripolitania 2009, brought up to date, and with data contributed by many colleague
Inscriptions of Roman Tripolitania 2021: The EpiDoc files
The first corpus of Roman inscriptions from Tripolitania was published by Joyce Reynolds in 1952. In 2009 she worked with Gabriel Bodard, Tom Elliott, Charlotte Roueché and Hafed Walda to republish that volume - with some 20 more texts - in digital form, with translations and full illustration. In 2021 Bodard and Roueché, with Caroline Barron and Irene Vagionakis worked to enhance that publication by adding all the inscriptions from the area published since 1952, drawing on the Egpigraphische Datenbank Heidelberg, Papyri.info, and other sources.
The files have been published using EFES: https://github.com/EpiDoc/EFES</p
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
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
