Geopoietiche/Geopoetiche, a partire dalle movenze del geografo Augustin Berque
No full textIl presente lavoro consta di due parti: nella prima si trova un ripensamento di alcuni concetti e questioni che emergono dal dialogo fra geografia e filosofia. In particolare, la concretezza dell’esperienza geografica viene riletta attraverso la relazione fra le gestualità espressive e la morfogenesi delle forme geografiche. Si enuclea la possibilità di un materialismo geopoietico/geopoetico e l’ipotesi di un trascendentale geografico che afferisce alla Terra come campo performativo. Nella seconda parte trova spazio uno studio caso, svolto in Brasile nel Centro storico della città di Curitiba, focalizzato sulla micro-scala del quotidiano. La costellazione di riferimento è costituita dalla geografia fenomenologica (specificamente la mesologia di A. Berque) e dal pensiero di M. Merleau-Ponty e viene ibridata da altre voci ed altri saperi, come ad esempio le scienze della vita e gli studi sul performativo.This work consists of two parts: in the first, there is a rethinking of some concepts and issues that emerge from the dialogue between geography and philosophy. In particular, the concreteness of geographical experience is reinterpreted through the relationship between expressive gestures and the morphogenesis of geographical forms. We raise the possibility of a geopoietic/geopoetic materialism and the hypothesis of a geographical transcendental that refers to the Earth as a performative field. In the second part, there is a case study, carried out in Brazil in the historical centre of the city of Curitiba, focused on the micro-scale of the everyday. The main references are phenomenological geography (specifically the mesology of A. Berque) and the thought of M. Merleau-Ponty, and they are hybridised by other voices and other knowledge, such as those coming from life sciences and the studies on performative
Il movimento: tutto qui. L’ordine aleatorio delle macchine danzanti.
No full textStarting from the analysis of Accumulation (1971) and Set and Reset, the article intends to analyze the relationship between chance and artistic creation in Trisha Brown. The notion of “dancing machine”, used by Trisha Brown herself to refer to the dancer, will be the occasion to attempt the juxtaposition between dancing body, animal and cybernetic machine. As we will see, the case is an element of creation proper to the living and, in general, to every self-poietic system
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
AUGUSTIN BERQUE, Entendre la Terre. A l’écoute des milieux humains. Entretiens avec Damien Deville
No full textLa spazialità geografica interroga il concetto di intuizione
No full textStarting from Merleau-Ponty’s critique of the concept of intuition and from a glimpsed ne-cessity to elaborate a third way, alternative to both reflection and intuition, we question phenomenological geography, or mesology, in order to propose a geographical solution. Analysing the relation living-milieu and focusing the attention on spatial perception and corporeality, reflection and intuition give way to a gesture that is both understanding and expressing. In such a way, the boundary between thought and action gets hybridized and an embodied cognition emerges, something which is outlined in the present work through some emblematic practices that give value to the aesthetic dimension.Partendo dalla critica di Merleau-Ponty al concetto di intuizione e dalla necessità intravi-sta di elaborare una terza via, alternativa sia alla riflessione che all\u27intuizione, interroghiamo la geografia fenomenologica, o mesologia, per proporre una soluzione geografica. Analizzando la relazione abitare-milieu e focalizzando l\u27attenzione sulla percezione spaziale e sulla corporeità, la riflessione e l\u27intuizione cedono il passo a un gesto che è insieme comprensione ed espressione. In questo modo, il confine tra pensiero e azione si ibrida ed emerge una cognizione incarnata, che si delinea nel presente lavoro attraverso alcune pratiche emblematiche che danno valore alla dimensione estetica
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
