    La narrazione, la rete, la testa ben fatta

    No full text
    Many pedagogical and didactic reasons support the idea that narration can be a strategic, methodological and technical innovative instrument, with deep potential. For the educational and pedagogical point of view, its networks, its explicit and implicit plots, its real and symbolic connections, the nuclei of its discursive and argumentative knots are just some of its most important structures. Furthermore, for the educational and pedagogical point of view, it is actually interesting that the aims of an innovative and deep narration show a great compatibility with the educational objectives of a systemic thinking, able to elaborate processes, designs and projects, able to define and redefine interpretations and reticular intersections. In other words, the horizons of sense of a narration are significant as they allow men to recognize the interactions of multicultural and intercultural with the hyper-cultural, that is, in Dekerckhovian terms, with all the contents that relate to each other and that can be quickly accessed

    La lezione universitaria: riflessioni poetico-drammaturgiche · Lo studio si concentra su un luogo specifico dell’azione educativa: la lezione accademica. Attraverso l’analogia tra una classe universitaria e uno spazio teatrale l’Autore individua i principi che accomunano la dimensione artistica e quella educativa offrendo un contributo per ripensare la lezione universitaria.University lecture: poetic-dramaturgical reflections · The present study focuses on a specific ‘place’ of educational action: the university lecture. Through the analogy between a university classroom and a theatrical space, the author identifies the principles that unite the artistic and educational dimensions, offering a contribution to rethinking the university lecture.Die universitäre Vorlesung. Poetisch- dramaturgische Überlegungen · Die Studie konzentriert sich auf eine Sonderform von Unterricht: die universitäre Vorlesung.

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Albert Camus. Alla ricerca di un nuovo umanesimo

    No full text
    La ricerca di un rinnovato umanesimo è un’urgenza imprescindibile nel mondo attuale, alle prese con trasformazioni e rischi sempre più incalzanti di cui appunto l’“uomo”, con le sue scelte e le sue azioni, è il principale responsabile: dalla conflittualità fratricida ai cambiamenti climatici; dal dominio tecnologico all’implacabilità delle logiche del mercato e della finanza. Il riferimento ad Albert Camus invita ad affrontare queste tematiche partendo da interrogativi che pongano – filosoficamente, eticamente, esteticamente – la definizione stessa dell’umano al centro della riflessione, come si propongono in questo volume i contributi di Anna Aluffi Pentini, Fernando Antonio Barra, Alessandro Bresolin, Luigi Fenizi, Marina Geat, Marco Giosi, Mimmo Longobardi, Pasquale Persico, Mimmo Pucciarelli, Emanuele Santi, Gilberto Scaramuzzo, Claudio Tognonato, Tommaso Visone.The search for a renewed humanism is an unavoidable urgency in today’s world, grappling with increasingly pressing transformations and risks for which “man”, precisely, with his choices and actions, is the main culprit: from fratricidal conflict to climate change; from technological domination to the implacability of the logic of the market and finance. The reference to Albert Camus invites us to address these issues from questions that place - philosophically, ethically, aesthetically - the very definition of the human at the center of reflection. as the contributions by Anna Aluffi Pentini, Fernando Antonio Barra, Alessandro Bresolin, Luigi Fenizi, Marina Geat, Marco Giosi, Mimmo Longobardi, Pasquale Persico, Mimmo Pucciarelli, Emanuele Santi, Gilberto Scaramuzzo, Claudio Tognonato, Tommaso Visone

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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
