    GIOVANNI MATTIA TIBERINO E LA PASSIO BEATI SIMONIS PUERI TRIDENTINI: EDIZIONE E COMMENTO

    No full text
    A fronte dell’ampia e varia tipologia di studi dedicati all’episodio del “beato” Simone da Trento (1475), emergeva la mancanza di informazioni riguardanti uno dei maggiori protagonisti della vicenda: il bresciano Giovanni Mattia Tiberino, autore della Passio beati Simonis tridentini, ovvero il testo che determinò la fortuna letteraria degli avvenimenti trentini. A lungo limitato al ruolo che svolse nella difesa della causa di Simonino, l’interesse nei confronti di questo personaggio non ha mai varcato il confine dell’erudizione locale, impedendo una ricostruzione esauriente della sua figura di uomo e d’intellettuale: questa tesi desidera definire meglio i lineamenti biografici e culturali del Tiberino, per mostrare le varie sfaccettature di questo complesso profilo di letterato e umanista, pur riconoscendo l’importanza che ebbe l’esperienza trentina per la sua formazione e affermazione come intellettuale. La tesi presenta tre capitoli: il primo si concentra sulla vita e le opere del Tiberino, delineando una biografia completa e documentata; il secondo comprende il censimento e la catalogazione di tutti i testimoni, manoscritti ed edizioni a stampa, delle opere dedicate a Simone da Trento, mostrando l’entità della loro diffusione e le modalità di circolazione; il terzo è dedicato all’edizione della Passio, corredato di un apparato delle fonti ed un commento.Considering the wide and various kinds of studies dedicated to the case of the “blessed” Simone from Trento (1475), it stood out the lack of information about one of the most important actors of this story: Giovanni Mattia Tiberino from Brescia, author of the “Passio beati Simonis tridentini”, that is the text which established the literary success of these events. For a long time the only interest for this character was related to his role in defence of Simonino’s case, and this interest never crossed the borders of local erudition; in this way it was not possible to have a full image of his figure as a man and as a scholar. This thesis aims to define better his biographical and cultural outlines, in order to show all the different faces of his complex profile as a man of letters and scholar. This thesis is composed by three chapters: the first one is about Tiberino’s life and works, and it outlines a complete and documented biography. The second one comprehends census and cataloguing of all attestations, manuscripts and printed editions of works related to Simone from Trento; it also shows the extent of their spreading and the manners of their circulation. The third is dedicate to the Passio’s edition, with enclosed an critical apparatus and a commentary

    Self-tuning porous silicon chemitransistor gas sensors

    No full text
    This work breaks a new ground in the gas sensor arena by demonstrating that concepts of self-repairing (selftuning) materials and electronics can be successfully applied to sensor design, thus envisaging a novel class of self-tuning gas sensors with increased lifetime, enhanced reliability, and improved environmental sustainability. In this work, electrical tuning of the sensitivity of nanostructured chemistransistor sensors, specifically porous silicon (PS) junction field-effect transistor (JFET) gas sensors (PSJFETs), by bias-control of the gate-terminal is shown to effectively address two chief problems of solid-state gas sensors, namely fabrication reliability and aging effects, which represent a major bottleneck towards in-field applications. Proof of concept is given, both theoretically and experimentally, by fully compensating the effect of fabrication errors on the sensitivity of two PSJFETs integrated on the same chip, which, though identical in principle, feature different sensitivities (about 30%) to NO2 before compensation. Although fabrication tolerance compensation of chemitransistor sensors by sensitivity tuning is here demonstrated for the specific case of the PSJFET, the general concept can be in principle applied to other chemitransistor sensors that exploit nanostructured sensing materials different from porous silicon. © 2013 IEEE

    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

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We 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
