Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
"- É irmão. A vida é dura": A bastardia em Desalma, de Ana Paula Maia
Full text linkEste trabalho é uma leitura das configurações de bastardia, a partir das personagens criadas pela autora brasileira Ana Paula Maia. Para tanto, pretendo pensar em alguns problemas que se traduzem no encontro dos bastardos com o outro, figura hipotética que se recria na cena de leitura como o desvelador de um embate hostil entre projeções identitárias e leis, logo, conduzindo à perspectiva de abandono operada pela mítica representação do que engendramos sobre a pólis, ora compreendida com espaço social de poder. Entre vinganças inscritas em assassinatos sob encomenda e mortes com assinatura, lemos também uma condição de anonimato daqueles aos quais são destinados o subsolo e os dejetos como espacialidades de resistência aos cenários de desabrigo e deslegitimação. Assim, é pela borda que transborda, expulsando de si a condição precária de um abrigo poroso à bastardia, que essas personagens encontram, na errância, na ameaça e no binômio "ataque-defesa", as credenciais para (sobre)viver nessa bricolagem de enredos sociais e polaroides tarantinescas

No full textEntre nós: o projeto da mátria e a língua de Teresa Moure
Full text linkO artigo discute as relações entre o público e o privado em dois romances da escritora galega Teresa Moure. A partir dos laços de família que são propostos nesses enredos, pretende-se ler as violências que sustentam as compreensões de oíkos e pólis; espacialidades que ampliam as distinções entre o lugar de origem e o encontro com o outro. A personagem mãe é o percurso escolhido à leitura do projeto político-literário desenvolvido pela autora
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
Divórcio, de Ricardo Lísias: o domínio da palavra e as regras do jogo
No full textA literatura costuma ganhar maior projeção em obras produzidas por autores masculinos,
apesar das muitas personagens femininas icônicas – escritas por homens – fazerem parte do
imaginário coletivo. A mulher não escapa, seja no plano ficcional ou real, das ramificações do
machismo e patriarcado estrutural que permeiam a sociedade há tantos séculos. A partir do
romance Divórcio (2013), de Ricardo Lísias, que apresenta traços autoficcionais, coincidindo
com o estilo adotado pelo autor em parte da sua produção literária, investigaremos as
particularidades da estilística da prosa do autor na saga de um homem em busca de reconstruir
a pele desfeita pelo diário que sua ex-esposa escreveu, e analisaremos a construção da
personagem da ex-mulher como a personificação de uma figura diabólica, buscando fazer um
estudo a respeito do silenciamento – apoiado na teoria de Eni Orlandi (2007) – e da
condenação da sexualidade feminina, transformando-a em objeto de vergonha e humilhação –
embasado na pesquisa de Silvia Federicci (2017); bem como o uso da linguagem como uma
poderosa forma de violência de gênero. Visando refletir os processos de opressão e violência
aos quais mulheres são submetidas ao reproduzir comportamentos considerados privilégios do
sexo masculino – como o direito ao sexo por prazer e a priorizar a vida profissional em
detrimento da amorosa – serão questionados os mecanismos utilizados na obra selecionada do
autor escolhido.In literature, works produced by male authors tend to gain greater prominence despite the fact
that many iconic female characters – written by men – are part of the collective imagination.
Women, whether fictional or real, do not escape from the ramifications of sexism and
structural patriarchy that has permeated society for so many centuries. From the novel
Divórcio (2013), by Ricardo Lísias, which presents self-fictional traits, that correspond with
the style adopted by the author in part of his literary production, we will investigate the
particularities of the author's prose stylistics in the saga of a man in search for the
reconstruction of the skin torn by the diary written by his ex-wife, in that way the construction
of the ex-wife character as the personification of a diabolical figure will be analyzed,
intending to carry out a study about silencing – supported by the theory of Eni Orlandi (2007)
– and condemnation of female sexuality, turning it into an object of shame and humiliation –
based on research by Silvia Federicci (2017); as well as the use of language as a powerful
form of gender-based violence. Aiming to reflect the processes of oppression and violence to
which women are subjected when reproducing behaviors considered male privileges – such as
the right to sex for pleasure and prioritizing professional life to the detriment of love – the
mechanisms used in the author‟s selected work will be questioned.91 p
