Bibliografia completa di Jean Gottmann
Gottmann's geographic literature spans over sixty years of activity -- between 1933 and 1994 -- and is composed of almost 400 titles, about twenty of which are books. Published mostly in French and English, his writings were translated in fourteen languages including Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Tamil, Dutch, Turkish, Slovenian, Japanese, Polish, Yiddish, German and modern Greek. Jean Gottmann's first official bibliography -- covering his writings between 1933 and 1984 -- was published in Patten, J. (ed.), 1983 in The Expanding City, Essays in honour of Professor Jean Gottmann, London-New York Academic Press, pp. xvii-xxxv. The same bibliography is entirely reprinted, with just one addition relative to 1983, in his volume of the same year: The Coming of the Transactional City, printed in College Park by the University of Maryland's Institute for Urban Studies. A selection of his publications dedicated to urban geography between 1949 and 1987 can be found in Jean Gottmann and Robert Harper, 1990, Since Megalopolis, the Urban Writings of Jean Gottmann, Baltimore and London, The Johns Hopkins University Press, pp. 269-280. Thanks to the partial opening of the Fond Gottmann, housed at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France Département des Cartes et Plans it was possible to verify his entire bibliography on the same notebook where Gottmann kept note of his own publications. Finally, the information in this bibliograhy was compared to the one available from the indexes of those thematic volumes that are selections of previously published essays from different scientific journals. In particular Etudes sur l'Etat d'Israel (1958), Essais sur l'aménagement de l'espace habité (1966), La cité invincible (1983) e Since Megalopolis (1990). We would like to thank Jean-Yves Sarazin, curator of the Fond Gottmann at the Bibliothéque Nationale de France in Paris, for his kind re-reading of the complete bibliography. We would also like to invite the reader that may be informed of recent and/or posthumous publications of Jean Gottmann - not included in this list - to contact the author
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
A RENOVAÇÃO DA GEOGRAFIA: A CONSTRUÇÃO DE UMA TEORIA DE TERRITÓRIO E DE TERRITORIALIDADE NA OBRA DE JEAN GOTTMANN
O objetivo principal da pesquisa que estamos realizando, nos últimos anos, é compreender as diferentes abordagens e concepções de território e territorialidade, renovadas a partir dos anos 1960-70 até o momento atual. Para tanto, elegemos obras e autores da França, Itália, EUA e Brasil, da geografia e outras ciências sociais, que dão centralidade a esses conceitos. Neste texto, evidenciamos a abordagem crítica e não marxista de Jean Gottmann, autor de grande importância para a geografia em nível internacional, porém pouco conhecido e divulgado no Brasil
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
O Circuito Iconográfico de Jean Gottmann no Rio de Janeiro (1973)
In Geography images can be powerful instruments for the development of reasoning, despite the more current usage that condemns them to the role of illustrations.The aim of this article is to approach images as primary analytical elements and explore their heuristic potential. The case under study involves the photos left by the geographer Jean Gottmann during his stay in Rio de Janeiro in 1973. The choice of this case is due both to the compositional elements present in the pictures and to the procedures used in their production. Three main types of movement were identified in the making of thesephotos: Gottmann’s circuit around the city, the camera’s displacements in the same point of view and the images made in motion. The study let to know that Jean Gottmann used images as research tools. The pictures are witnesses of the urbanization and urban sprawl of Rio de Janeiro.Na Geografia, as imagens podem ser poderosos instrumentos para o desenvolvimento do raciocínio, a despeito do uso mais corrente que as condena ao papel de ilustrações. O objetivo deste artigo é adotar as imagens como principais elementos analíticos e explorar todo o seu potencial heurístico. O caso em estudo envolve as fotografias deixadas pelo geógrafo Jean Gottmann durante sua estadia no Rio de Janeiro em 1973. A escolha desse caso se deve tanto aos elementos composicionais presentes nas fotografias, como aos procedimentos utilizados em sua produção. Foram identificados três principais tipos de movimento na realização dessas fotografias: o circuito de Gottmann pela cidade, os deslocamentos da câmera em um mesmo ponto de vista e as imagens feitas em movimento. O estudo revelou que Jean Gottmann utilizava as imagens como instrumentos de pesquisa. As fotografias são testemunhas eloquentes da urbanização e metropolização do Rio de Janeiro registradas por Gottmann
SOBERANIA DOS ESTADOS E CONCEPÇÕES DE FRONTEIRA EM GOTTMANN
Desde o fim da Segunda Guerra Mundial, a Geografia Política tem se voltado com maior afinco para um nível de estudo mais aprofundado sobre as relações entre Estado e território. Tal aprofundamento surge da necessidade de uma análise dos fatores complementares entre si, como: a) apreender a importância da caracterização dos limites jurisdicionais e das áreas de influência considerando o paradigma “sociedade internacional”, que é definido pelo grau de interdependência entre os Estados, devido aos interesses contidos em suas respectivas ações políticas e pelo entrelaçamento dos sistemas econômicos regionais; b) relacionar o aperfeiçoamento de técnicas e tecnologias, bélicas ou não, na construção do espaço geográfico, logo de territórios. Nessa conjuntura, surge o geógrafo Jean Gottmann, apto a explicar a importância da categoria “fronteira” e de conceitos como “soberania”

Jean gottmann (1915-1994) and geography as a profession: context, practice and text
Esse trabalho é uma reflexão geral sobre a geografia do ponto de vista profissional, partindo, como método para se alcançar esse objetivo, de uma análise contextual da obra e vida de Jean Gottmann. O uso de fontes primárias (cartas, entrevistas), a analise detida de seus textos junto da comparação com outros textos expressivos da época de produção dos mesmos, a reconstrução do contexto político e das condições materiais de produção, foram alguns dos procedimentos mais utilizados para análise. No estudo de sua obra, ficou evidente algumas das transformações por que passou o conhecimento geográfico e a profissão de geógrafo, como o questionamento e desvalorização do método regional francês, seu instrumento de trabalho por excelência. Também vieram à luz suas motivações pessoais, demandas trabalhistas e filiações políticas podem responder pelo todo dessa mesma obra, muitas vezes às expensas do valor científico da mesma. O trabalho tenta lograr uma contribuição reunindo elementos que uteis às reconstruções historiográficas para a disciplina de geografia, enquanto busca, ao mesmo tempo, servir como um guia para acessar a produção e as ideias desse geógrafo. O escopo geral, no entanto, foi o de reunir elementos para questionar a evolução da geografia como profissão, desde seu nascimento em finais do séc. XIX até as primeiras décadas após o fim da II Guerra.This work is a general consideration on geography from the professional point of view, starting, as a way to achieve this aim, from a contextual analysis of Jean Gottmann\'s work and life. The use of primary sources (letters, interviews), the accurate analysis of his texts and their comparison with another expressive ones produced at the same time, the reconstruction of the political context and the material conditions of production, were some of the most used procedures. In the study of his work, it was evident some of the transformations that went through the geographical knowledge and the profession of geographer, such as the questioning and devaluation of the French regional method, its instrument of work par excellence. It was also evident that personal motivations, labor demands, and political affiliations can account for the whole of the same work, regardless of its scientific value, which was definitely his case. The work attempts to contribute by bringing together elements that contribute with historiographic reconstructions to the geography as a discipline, while also want to serve as a guide to access the production and ideas of this geographer especifically. The general scope, however, was to gather elements to question the evolution of geography as a profession since its birth in the late 19th century, until the first decades after the end of World War II
Author, publisher and bookseller : a tripartite synergy in Nigerian book industry
This work is about the roles of Author, Publisher and Bookseller in Book development in
Nigeria. The paper started by delving into the history of Book Publishing in Nigeria after
which it proceeded by defining who an author, a publisher, and a bookseller is and
