Culture-historical and Linguistic Development of the Šentjernej Municipality
Full text linkDiplomsko delo skuša prikazati zgodovinski, kulturni in jezikovni razvoj občine Šentjernej v različnih kulturnih obdobjih. Opisani bodo življenje ljudi, njihove navade, običaji, ljudsko izročilo ter materialne in nematerialne stvaritve. Podrobneje bodo predstavljene arhitekturna, stavbna in etnološka kulturna dediščina ter izobraževalne ustanove in njihova kulturna vloga v kraju. V nadaljevanju sledijo opisi oseb, ki so s svojim delom prispevale pomemben delež pri razvoju kulture, jezika in kraja ter pripomogle k nastanku edinstvene kulturne in jezikovne skupnosti. Z namenom ohranjanja in širjenja kulturne dediščine in ljudskega izročila na mlajše rodove so bila v občini Šentjernej ustanovljena različna kulturna in etnološka društva, v katera se vključujejo domačini, ki so ponosni na preteklost kraja in uživajo v poustvarjanju ljudske kulture. Vsako društvo bo s svojo zgodbo v diplomskem delu tudi predstavljeno. Raziskan bo tudi njihov pomen pri ohranjanju krajevnega govora in prispevek h kulturnemu dogajanju v kraju. Zelo pomemben del ljudskega izročila občine Šentjernej je tudi šentjernejski govor, ki je močno zaznamoval kulturno dogajanje v kraju. Slovenska dialektologija ga uvršča v vzhodnodolenjsko podnarečje, to pa je del dolenjske narečne skupine. V diplomskem delu bodo na kratko predstavljene njegove značilnosti in posebnosti, torej glasoslovna in oblikoslovna ravnina govora. Predstavljene bodo njegove naglasne značilnosti, samoglasniški in soglasniški sestav govora in izvor posameznih glasov. Pri oblikoslovni ravnini govora pa bodo predstavljene narečne posebnosti štirih besednih vrst, tj. glagola, samostalniške in pridevniške besede in prislova.Diploma portrays the historical, cultural and linguistic development of the Šentjernej municipality in different cultural periods. I described the lives of people, their habits, customs, folk tradition as well as material and immaterial creations. Topics which are presented in detail are: architectural, building and ethnological heritage and also educational establishments along with their cultural role in the area. The thesis continues with the descriptions of people who have made important contributions in the development of culture, language and the town itself and have played a major part in creating a unique cultural and linguistic community. Different cultural and ethnological societies have been established in the municipality in order to preserve and expand cultural heritage and folk tradition for the younger generation. Members of the societies became the locals, who are proud of their past and enjoy recreating folk culture. The story of each society is also included in the work. The importance of each society in preserving the local speech and their contribution to cultural activities in the town has also been researched. The significant part of the folk tradition in the municipality is also the Šentjernej speech which has strongly marked the cultural events in the town. Slovene dialectology classifies it into the eastern Lower Carniolan subdialect, which is a part of the Lower Carniolan dialect group. The thesis presents the characteristics and features of the dialect on the vocal and morphological level. Its accentual attributes, the vowel and consonantal structure of the speech and the origin of certain sounds were also looked into. The morphological level of the dialect is featured by four parts of speech: verb, noun, adjective and adverb
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
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
