Working with tradition in Sicily: subtitling La Cardata, a documentary by Giuseppe Angileri
Get PDFopenIl mio lavoro di tesi esplora le varie tipologie di traduzione audiovisiva (TAV), con particolare riferimento al sottotitolaggio. Verranno descritti i vari standard da seguire a livello tecnico e linguistico e l'ambiente lavorativo dei traduttori audiovisivi. Tutti questi principi verranno poi applicati in modo pratico nella traduzione e il sottotitolaggio del documentario "La Cardata", diretto e girato dal regista messinese Giuseppe Angileri. Il documentario si concentra sulla pratica della pesca del pesce spada, attività tipica svolta nella zona dello Stretto di Messina.My thesis work explores the various types of Audiovisual Translation (AVT), with particular reference to subtitling. I will offer an overview of the history and different modalities of AVT.
I will then focus on subtitling, describing the different technical and linguistic standards and the professional environment of audiovisual translators. All these principles will then be practically applied in the translation and subtitling of the documentary La Cardata directed and filmed by the Sicilian director Giuseppe Angileri. The documentary explores the practice of swordfish fishing, a typical activity carried out in the area of the Strait of Messina
True-to-life modelling of Auteur architecture of the 20th century. From BIM modelling to webGIS fruition
No full textThis study explores the concept behind the modelling and digital fruition of 20th-century auteur architecture, with a specific focus on the Santa María Micaela residential complex designed by Santiago Artal Ríos in Valencia (ES). The research uses BIM techniques to create a detailed digital representation of this architectural landmark, facilitating the integration of different historical data sources and providing a comprehensive understanding of the building's original design intent, construction methods and subsequent modifications. The Santa María Micaela residential complex serves as a case study to explore the potential of HBIM in architectural heritage conservation. The 3D model of the complex was created after an indepth data collection study, which involved archival research and an accurate on-site survey. In addition, the study extends the utility of BIM models by integrating them with webGIS. This integration enhances accessibility and interaction, allowing a wider audience to engage with the digital model. Allowing the users to navigate the model, retrieve detailed information about various elements, and analyse the architectural and historical context of the complex. The results highlight the value of combining BIM with webGIS technologies in the preservation and dissemination of architectural heritage, helping to preserve the physical and intangible aspects of historic buildings but also facilitating access to heritage information. This study aims to be a preliminary approach that explains how contemporary digital tools can breathe new life into 20th-century architecture, ensuring that its legacy will endure for future generations, contributing to the wider discourse on digital heritage conservation and advocating the adoption of advanced modelling and visualisation techniques in the conservation of modern architectural icons
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
