No full text"… a way to produce something". Zur kompositorischen Relevanz des präparierten Klaviers bei John Cage
No full textDas präparierte Klavier hat für das Komponieren Cages eine Bedeutung, die über die Erfindung des Instruments selbst und die – hauptsächlich aus den 1940er Jahren stammenden – Kompositionen dafür hinausgeht und bestimmte Aspekte seines Schaffens ab den 1950er Jahren erst ermöglicht hat: So weist neben der aus der spezifischen Materialdisposition des präparierten Klaviers sich ergebenden gamut-Technik und generellen Unbestimmtheit (»indeterminacy«) des Klangresultates insbesondere die – hauptsächlich als Griff- und nur eingeschränkt als Klangschrift funktionierende – Notation der Stücke auf spätere Kompositionen hin, was Cage in einem Interview aus den 1970er Jahren rückblickend folgendermaßen umschrieb: »But once I developed the prepared piano, notation became a way to produce something.« Am Beispiel ausgewählter Kompositionen Cages für präpariertes Klavier (Bacchanale, Sonatas and Interludes u. a.) wird diskutiert, inwiefern die Notation des präparierten Klaviers als »ein Mittel, um etwas zu produzieren«, verstanden werden kann
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
No full text“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
No full textWe 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
Mutual Roots of Musical Thinking: György Kurtág, Péter Eötvös and Their Relation to Ernő Lendvai's Theories
No full textThe major influence on the music of György Kurtág and Péter Eötvös can be seen in Bartók's compositions. Both composers described his music as their ”mother tongue”. Results of an interview with Eötvös, an analysis of his composition ”Kosmos” and sketches of Kurtág, lead to the conclusion that both composers' view of Bartók is heavily influenced by Lendvai's theories. Kurtág's Opus 30a serves as an example for the use of Lendvai's theory at a harmonic level
„Hommage à“ und „in memoriam“ - Brennpunkte kompositorischer Bartók-Rezeption nach 1945
No full textCompositions written as homage to or in memory of another composer are a special case of compositional reception: the composer refers overtly to an individual and perceptible personal style and technique of the composer to whom the homage is dedicated. The paper will portray on the one hand representative and recurring types of compositions dedicated to Béla Bartók, on the other hand such works, which highlight an extraordinary aspect of Bartók's oeuvre and are therefore suitable to open new perspectives for musicological analysis, too. The material forming the basis of the examination includes composers from different countries, generations or “schools” and ranges from early examples like István Szelényi's Homage (1947) to latest cases like Peter Eötvös' new concerto CAP-KO (2005)
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
