Der Hauptaltar von Giovanni Giuliani in Gaaden
No full textVorrangiges Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es den szenisch freiplastischen Hochaltar (nach 1735) von Giovanni Giuliani (1664 - 1744) der Pfarrkirche in Gaaden in einen religiösen wie historischen Kontext einzubetten. Gaaden gehört seit dem 16. Jahrhundert zu den Besitzungen des Zisterzienserklosters Heiligenkreuz (NÖ) und liegt an der sogenannten "via sacra" nach Mariazell
Da Malghera a Marghera. Paesaggi industriali nelle incisioni di Giovanni Giuliani
No full textThe complex bond between Venice and its hinterland had expressed a clear supremacy of the “centre” for centuries. Since the end of the 19th century this situation has been progressively reversed. The fascination of modernity made the profound urban changes which involved the area between Marghera and Mestre less dramatic, so the new industrial elements became interesting for the venetian artist Giovanni Giuliani. Could we compare his industrial landscapes with a classical “veduta” by Canaletto
La "grande Venezia" incisa. I cantieri di Eugenio Miozzi nelle acqueforti di Giovanni Giuliani
No full textA partire dalla seconda metà dell’Ottocento Venezia è protagonista di una complessa trasformazione urbana. La costruzione del ponte ferroviario translagunare (1846) decreta la fine dell’insularità e inaugura una stagione di grandi cambiamenti che culmina, nei primi decenni del secolo successivo, con la nascita di Porto Marghera e la realizzazione delle infrastrutture progettate da Eugenio Miozzi. Nel 1930 l'ingegnere bresciano elabora un progetto per il nuovo ponte carraio (all’epoca detto “del Littorio”, oggi Ponte della Libertà) che doveva connettere la città lagunare con l’immediato entroterra. L’impresa si inseriva all’interno dell’articolata campagna di lavori pubblici promossa dal regime fascista tra il 1929 e il 1934 con l’obbiettivo di contrastare la precaria situazione economica internazionale e la crescente disoccupazione. In tale contesto opere come il Ponte dell’Accademia, il Ponte degli Scalzi e il Ponte del Littorio, inaugurate fra il 1933 e il 1934, possono essere intese come parte integrante della “grande Venezia” in fieri e, assieme al Rio Nuovo, vanno comprese nell’ampia rimodulazione del tessuto urbano coordinata dall’ingegnere.
Nello stesso periodo in cui Eugenio Miozzi avvia questi interventi l’artista veneziano Giovanni Giuliani realizza un interessante album di incisioni in cui i principali cantieri veneziani degli anni Trenta divengono i protagonisti di affascinanti vedute urbane. Tali opere talvolta presentano una straordinaria somiglianza con altre importanti testimonianze dell’epoca: le fotografie prodotte dallo studio Giacomelli. Il presente contributo intende mettere in luce la valenza storico-documentaria ed estetica di questa pregevole serie di stampe che rappresenta una prova concreta dell’affermazione novecentesca dell’acquaforte quale linguaggio artistico autonomo ed originale
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
