Geological map of the San Donato – Costa Thrust Zone, Belluno Thrust System, eastern Southern Alps (northern Italy)
Full text linkWe present a 1:7500 scale geological map of part of the footwall of the south verging Belluno Thrust of the seismically active eastern Southern Alps of northern Italy. We report a previously unknown thrust zone, the “San Donato-Costa Thrust Zone”, that cuts across the local Meso-Cenozoic stratigraphic succession. 1:2500 and 1:5000 geological mapping, in combination with the revision and improvement of the local lithostratigraphy and detailed structural analysis, provided new insights into the thrust geometry and the setting of the greater area it deforms. We show that the recorded deformation style (e.g. folding vs. faulting) exhibits notable variations within the affected Meso-Cenozoic stratigraphic succession, with shortening accommodated by fold trains and several subparallel thrust splays with variable amounts of stratigraphic offset cumulated during repeated faulting. Our results contribute to a better definition of folding and faulting within the Mesozoic carbonate multilayer system of the eastern Southern Alps.</p
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
La poesia di Cesare Giulio Viola e il crepuscolarismo romano
No full textIl presente contributo prende in esame la produzione poetica di Cesare Giulio Viola, noto soprattutto come autore di commedie di successo tra gli anni Venti e Quaranta del Novecento, nonché come narratore e critico teatrale. Essa comprende non soltanto un volume del 1909, L’altro volto che ride. Poemi (Ricciardi), ma vari componimenti dispersi, legati anch’essi in qualche modo alla temperie culturale di primo Novecento e nello specifico alla «scuola» crepuscolare della capitale. Il saggio è bipartito. La prima parte provvede a ricostruire attraverso lettere, rievocazioni memoriali, documenti e testimonianze, la presenza e la funzione del poeta all’interno del circolo romano, dove spiccavano le figure di Sergio Corazzini, Fausto Maria Martini e Tito Marrone, con i quali egli entrò in rapporti di amicizia e di collaborazione. La seconda parte consiste nell’analisi della scrittura lirica di Viola nell’orizzonte intertestuale della poesia italiana ed europea primo-novecentesca (tra revival classicistico e simbolismo minore, «liberty e crepuscolarismo»). Emergono così, tra i punti di riferimento del poeta, i nomi di Leopardi e Pascoli tra gli italiani e di Baudelaire, Rodenbach e Verhaeren tra gli stranieri.
Il saggio è compreso nel volume Tra Sud ed Europa. Studi sul Novecento letterario italiano (Lecce, Milella, 2013), una coerente raccolta di studi dedicati a poeti e narratori italiani del Novecento (Salvatore Quasimodo, Leonardo Sinisgalli, Rocco Scotellaro, Michele Saponaro, Girolamo Comi, Vittorio Bodini) accomunati dall’origine meridionale ma anche dalla dimensione nazionale e, in alcuni casi, europea, in cui si colloca la loro attività letteraria.

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
