La chiesa dei Santi Sergio e Bacco, Umm as-Surab (Giordania). Risultati storico-costruttivi dall’analisi archeologica degli elevati
Get PDFThe paper illustrates the results of the archaeological investigations carried out on the still-standing structures of the church of Saints Sergius and Bacchus in the Umm as-Surab village, in northern Jordan. The building, still relatively well preserved, is considered by the scientific literature as one of the most interesting in the southern Hawrān because of some technical and structural features, among them the high tower built on the prothesis. The analysis of the material remains made possible to identify a building sequence divided into five periods and to investigate the dynamics of the constructive process. We also focused our attention on the identification of the main building techniques (walls, doors, arches and pilasters), which will be part of a broader Chrono-typological Atlas of the Hawrān region. With these new data, we have further reflected on the building typologies of the tower and the church, so trying to contribute to the current debate.[it] Il contributo di seguito presentato illustra i risultati delle indagini archeologiche effettuate sugli elevati della chiesa dei Santi Sergio e Bacco nel villaggio di Umm as-Surab, Giordania settentrionale. L’edificio, ancora relativamente ben conservato, è considerato dalla letteratura specialistica come una tra le chiese più interessanti del sud Hawrān per alcune caratteristiche tecnico-strutturali, tra cui l’alta torre costruita sulla prothesis. L’ analisi dei resti materiali ci ha permesso di individuare una sequenza edilizia suddivisa in cinque periodi e di approfondire le dinamiche di cantiere. Ci siamo inoltre concentrati sull’individuazione delle principali tecniche costruttive (murature, aperture, archi e pilastri), che faranno parte di un più ampio Atlante Cronotipologico della regione dello Hawrān. Con questi nuovi dati abbiamo ulteriormente riflettuto sulle tipologie edilizie della torre e della chiesa, cercando di contribuire al dibattito corrente

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
