Rhetoric and its studies date back to the Classical Antiquity, notably in the works of Aristotle, Cicero and Quintilian. The application of rhetoric as a form of persuasion and communication of feelings and ideas was fundamental to artists from the Renaissance and Baroque period. In music, rhetoric has taken the form of tools employed by composers to increase the effect of specific elements in their works. Johann Sebastian Bach, inserted in that musical context, utilized both tools to emphasize the affects in his compositions, especially in his early works. Thereby, this dissertation proposes to demonstrate the characteristics of the stylus phantasticus in the toccata BWV 912 as well to point out in these elements rhetorical ascendancies manifested in that work. In essence, this work seeks to provide an analysis that reveals the strategies that were used by the composer to stress the affects and the fantastic character of the musical piece
Aspectos técnicos na construção da interpretação da Sarabande da Suíte francesa em Ré menor BWV 812 de J. S. Bach
Orientadora: Prof.ª Dra. Zélia Maria Marques ChuekeMonografia (licenciatura) - Universidade Federal do Paraná, Setor de Artes, Comunicação e Design, Curso de Graduação em MúsicaInclui referênciasResumo : As Suítes francesas de J. S. Bach são obras representativas do repertório no âmbito de uma sólida formação pianística. A Sarabande da suíte em Ré menor apresenta desafios técnicointerpretativos específicos, que precisam ser solucionados durante a preparação da performance desta obra. Sendo assim, como resolver tais desafios técnicos visando a interpretação dessa Sarabande ao piano? Nisto consiste o objetivo geral deste trabalho. Os objetivos específicos são: (1) contextualizar o conceito de técnica pianística e as implicações desta na preparação da performance da peça citada; (2) especificar decisões interpretativas e os desafios técnicos emergentes durante o processo de preparação da performance; (3) selecionar os exercícios técnicos da literatura que visem à solução de cada desafio; (4) detalhar a utilização de cada exercício visando o conforto físico do pianista durante a execução. O trabalho consistirá em apresentar um panorama histórico da técnica pianística, fazer uma análise do ponto de vista do intérprete, isolando dificuldades específicas, gravar o estudo, selecionar os exercícios técnicos para resolver os desafios nesta busca, demonstrar a aplicação destes exercícios gravando-os separadamente e em seguida os aplicando às passagens isoladas, analisar o resultado no material gravado em vídeo, registrando-o em site de acesso restrito usado como referência na análise dos resultados, com indicação dos linksAbstract : The French suites of J. S. Bach are works regarding the building of a repertoire aiming to a solid pianistic background. The Sarabande from the d minor suite presents technical and interpretative specific challenges, which need to be faced during the performance preparation of that piece. Therefore, how to solve those performance challenges before going on stage? The main objective of this work is to establish solutions for these issues. The main objectives are: (1) contextualize the concept of piano technique and its consequences in that performance; (2) specify the interpretative decisions and other challenges which emerged during the process of performance preparation; (3) select exercises from the chosen methods aiming to solve each one of the emerging technical issues; (4) describe the use of each exercise emphasizing the physical comfort of the pianist during the performance. Therefore, the research work hereby presented consisted on presenting a historical overview of the piano technique, analysing the Sarabande from the performance's perspective, isolating specific challenges, recording practice sessions, selecting exercises to solve technical challenges and demonstrating the use of those exercises by recording them separately and then using them in the isolated passages and the analysis of the final outcome accessed by watching the resulting videos.

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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
