Le traduzioni italiane del traité d’économie politique e de « sur la balance des consommations avec les productions » di Jean-Baptiste Say (1817-1824): contesto storico, circolazione delle idee e strategie argomentative
Get PDFQuesto saggio in due parti si propone di incrociare due diverse modalità analitiche nell’analisi di una fonte storiografica in una prospettiva di ricerca interdisciplinare2. Vi sono esaminate le traduzioni del napoletano Luigi Chitti della terza edizione del Traité d’économie politique di Jean-Baptiste Say del 1817 e i testi del noto confronto polemico che l’economista francese ha intrecciato con Sismondi «Sur la balance des consommations avec les productions» nella versione datane dal giornalista milanese Francesco Lampato negli Annali Universali del 1824. Il primo segmento di Daniela Giaconi – I ‘compagni segreti’ di Say: Chitti e Lampato – adotta le tecniche interpretative dello storico del pensiero economico per trarre dal contesto storico del primo ottocento italiano il disegno culturale sotteso a queste due traduzioni, scandagliando gli orientamenti di Chitti e Lampato, la loro capacità di volgere quei testi dentro il dibattito economico italiano corrente e la loro diversa stima del peso delle parole dell’economista francese rispetto a quelle dei loro omologhi italiani. Sulla base di queste determinanti, Antonella Leoncini Bartoli, nel secondo segmento – L’economia come linguaggio della politica. L’engagement di Jean-Baptiste Say e di Francesco Lampato a favore del progresso scientifico e socio-culturale – applica gli strumenti dell’analisi discorsiva e argomentativa al testo originale «Sur la balance des consommations avec les productions» e alla traduzione di Francesco Lampato. Questa traduzione è stata selezionata in virtù di una maggiore concisione del testo, della sua più stringente connessione con il disegno culturale dell’editore della rivista che la ospitava – lo stesso Francesco Lampato – e di un’idea di modernizzazione della cultura e della diffusione del progresso economico nel Lombardo-Veneto alle quali non erano estranee idee innovative intorno al ruolo dei giornali specialistici come nuovi strumenti della comunicazione. A tal fine, in un primo tempo sono state rilevate le principali strategie linguistiche caratterizzanti il testo francese di Say quali la coesione e la coerenza, la costruzione dialogica ed i riferimenti a conoscenze condivise con i destinatari e la loro resa nella traduzione italiana; quindi sono state evidenziate le intenzioni di Lampato espresse nel paratesto introduttivo alla sua traduzione. A chiusura del saggio, si pone la questione della necessità di far evolvere parallelamente storia del pensiero economico e storia della lingua
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
No full textWe 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
