«Devota, rapita fuori di me». La chiamata di Dioniso nel Lamento di Arianna di Nietzsche
No full textIn questo articolo si tenta di declinare il rapporto tra fenomenologia e rivelazione rileggendo, alla luce della fenomenologia della donazione di Jean-Luc Marion, il celebre Lamento di Arianna di Friedrich Nietzsche. Il Lamento, che com’è noto è una riscrittura del Canto del Mago dello Zarathustra, descrive nella forma della confessione lo stato d’animo di Arianna, ormai abbandonata da Teseo, nel particolare momento dell’incontro con Dioniso. L’incontro col dio, che si manifesta soltanto nell’epodo in coda al ditirambo, assume nei fatti le caratteristiche di una chiamata: nella sua scansione, per il tramite dei “quattro tratti di manifestazione” (convocazione, sorpresa, interlocuzione e fatticità), si verifica in effetti il passaggio dal soggetto all’adonato. La tesi è che nella chiamata non solo avvenga la metamorfosi di Arianna, ma anche quella di Dioniso, che a sua volta viene risignificato a partire dalla risposta che il proprio appello riceve, e che il Lamento sia l’effettiva messa in scena dell’esperienza di rivelazione dello stesso Nietzsche, sorpreso e trasformato dal pensiero dell’eterno ritorno dell’uguale.This article attempts to articulate the relationship between phenomenology and revelation by reinterpreting Friedrich Nietzsche’s well known Ariadne’s Lament in light of Jean-Luc Marion’s phenomenology of givenness. The Lament, which is known to be a rewrite of the Song of the magician from Zarathustra, describes as a literary confession the state of mind of Ariadne, now abandoned by Theseus, at the particular moment of her encounter with Dionysus. The encounter with the god, which only manifests itself in the epode at the end of the dithyramb, is described as a call: through the “four traits of manifestation” (convocation, surprise, interlocution, and facticity), the transition from the subject to the adonated actually occurs. The thesis is that in the call not only does Ariadne’s metamorphosis take place, but also that of Dionysus, who in turn is re-signified based on the response to his own his own call, and that the Lament is the actual staging of Nietzsche’s own experience of revelation, who was surprised and transformed by the thought of the eternal return of the same
«Lento, traviante labirinto». La scrittura di Friedrich Nietzsche
No full textNietzsches writings, in which he favored the aphorism as the expressive form of his thought, are inevitably fragmentary. This artice aims to attempt a reading of Nietzsches style of writing that doesn't exclude its complexity and potential contradiction. In order to do this, the attempt is to look at his writing using the labyrinth as a privileged hermeneutic figure, thus resorting to myth and its figures, used by Nietzsche himself in his works
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
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
