Formação e reprodução da Aristocracia Visigoda (séculos V-VIII)
No full textO presente trabalho objetiva abordar, por via dos referenciais teóricos do materialismo histórico, os meios pelos quais se constituiu a classe aristocrática no Reino Visigodo de Toledo, entre os séculos V e VIII. Para tanto, buscou-se analisar os diferentes tipos de relação e níveis de ação que esta classe social desenvolveu no interior da sociedade visigótica ibérica a fim de identificar os diferentes tipos de elementos de caracterização pertinentes à afirmação da ascendência social dos membros da aristocracia. A análise de fontes de diversas origens e tipos aqui proposta, portanto, tem por intuito revelar o processo do “fazer-se” da aristocracia do Reino Visigodo de Toledo, partindo-se da premissa de que esta dinâmica só pode ser apreendida na historicidade que lhe dá forma.180 p
Reflexões preliminares sobre as justificativas mítico-ideológicas para a hierarquização e a desigualdade social na era viking
No full textThis work aims to promote the discussions as well as present my first reflections on the relationship of hierarchy and inequality in the Scandinavian societies of the Viking Age. To do so, we will take as reference the verses that constitute the poem in called Rigsí¾ula (The tale of Rig), that integrates the collection of text of Edda Major. This poem presents the way in which myths explain the emergence of the social strata among the Norse, being thus a central source in the discussion here suggested.Este trabalho visa promover as discussões, bem como apresentar minhas primeiras reflexões sobre a relação da hierarquização e a desigualdade nas sociedades escandinavas da Era Viking. Para tanto, tomar-se-á como referência os versos que constituem o poema em chamado Rigsí¾ula (O conto de Rig), que integra a coletãnea de texto da Edda Maior. Este poema apresentas a forma segundo a qual os mitos explicam o surgimento das camadas sociais entre os nórdicos, sendo, deste modo uma fonte central na discussão aqui sugerida

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
