أختية المقاومة والإبداع: لطيفة الزيات ورضوى عاشور - Sisterhood of Resistance and Creativity: Latifa al-Zayyat and Radwa Ashour
تتناول هذه المقالة «الأختية» بين لطيفة الزيات (١٩٢٣-١٩٩٦) ورضوى عاشور(١٩٤٦-٢٠١٤) ، من خلال تتبع العلاقة بينهما في النصوص وما وراء النصوص ، لما فيها من جمع بين الخاص والعام، وبين الشخصي والسياسي. تستكشف المقالة المواطن التي تذكر فيها كل منهما الأخرى بشكل مباشر أو غير مباشر، كما تعتمد على لقاءات تليفونية وشخصية مع صديقاتهما لتصل إلى طبيعة العلاقة. تركِّز المقالة على الأختية بوصفها محاولة لإصلاح العلاقة التقليدية بين الأم والابنة، التي تأثرت سلباً بفعل النظام الأبوي في ذاكرة كل من الكاتبتين. كما تستكشف أثر هذه العلاقة في عملهما السياسي المشترك.
This article examines the sisterhood between Latifa al-Zayyat (1923-1996) and Radwa Ashour (1946-2014), by tracing their relationship on the textual and metatextual levels, as one that brings together the private and the public, the personal and the political. It follows direct and indirect references that the two authors make to one another in their creative writings, and draws upon phone calls and personal interviews with their friends to reveal the nature of their relationship. The article demonstrates how their sisterhood reforms traditional mother-daughter relationships, negatively impacted by patriarchy in both their memories, and the influence of that relationship on their common political struggle
صورة الجامعة وتداعياتها في مختارات من الأدب الأمريكي في القرن العشرين / The Image of the University and its Implication in Selected Twentieth-Century American Literary Texts
[تتناول هذه المقالة العلاقة بين الطالب وأستاذ الجامعة في ثلاثة أعمال أدبية أمريكية نشرت في القرن العشرين: فهرنهاية ٤٥١ لريي برادبري (۱۹٥۳)، والعودة ٳلى التراب لجورج بامبر (۱۹٥۹)، ومطاردة الورق لجون جي أوزبرن (۱۹۷۰). وتحاول المقالة الربط بين الشكل الذي تتخذه هذه العلاقة المحورية في كل من الأعمال الثلاثة وفكرة تدهور الحضارة الغربية التي تعد موضوعاً أساسياً في النصوص موضع الدراسة، حيث يقدم كل منها نقداً للحياة الغربية المعاصرة ولنظرة الٳنسان في سياقها، وتصوراً خاصاً لفكرة الاضمحلال وﺗﻨﺒﺆاً بانهيار الحضارة الغربية في غياب الحرية والمعرفة . This article deals with the professor-student relationship in three American literary works published in the twentieth century: Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury (1953), Return to Dust by George Bamber (1959), and The Paper Chase by Jay Osborn (1970). The article relates the nature of this relationship to the concept of the decline of Western civilization, a major theme in all three texts. Each of these works presents a critique of contemporary Western civilization and the individual\u27s position within it, at the same time that it anticipates its decline and apocalypse in the absence of healthy institutional relationships based on knowledge and freedom.
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
مصيدة اﻟﻔﺌﺮان: تنويعات نيجيرية وعربية على لحن هاملت / The Mouse Trap: Nigerian and Arab Variations on Hamlet
[تتناول هذه المقالة اثنتين من المعالجات لمسرحية هاملت أمير الدانمرك لوليم شكسبير، هما: التغريد والأغنية للكاتب النيجيري فيمي أوسوفيسان (۱۹۷۷) وﻣﺆتمر آل هاملت للكاتب الكويتي سليمان البسام (۲۰۰۲). وقد كتبت المسرحيتان باللغة الٳنجليزية، في حين أنهما تنتميان ٳلى المسرح السياسي المنشغل ﺑﺂلام الوطن، وتعالجان هموماً نيجيرية وعربية أصيلة. تقدم المقالة قراءة جديدة لمسرحية أوسوفيسان بوصفها تنويعة على لحن هاملت، ثم تعمل على مقارنتها بمسرحية البسام من حيث علاقة كل منهما بالمسرحية الأم، ومن حيث تفاعل الكاتبين، النيجيري والعربي، مع النص الشكسبيري . This article deals with two adaptations of Shakespeare\u27s Hamlet: The Chattering and the Song (1977) by Nigerian writer Femi Osofisan and Al-Hamlet Summit (2002) by Kuwaiti writer Sulayman Al-Bassam. The article offers a new reading of Osofisan\u27s play which unravels the intertextuality between the play and Hamlet , then proceeds to compare the Nigerian adaptation to the Arabic one, in terms of how each of the two dramatists adapted the Shakespearean text, producing a mouse trap of their own.
Variations on the Author
“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
We 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
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We 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
