Military cartography of Serbian lands during the last Austro-Turkish war (1788–1791)
Get PDFThe Austro-Turkish War of 1788–1791 has not yet been properly reflected in scientific literature despite the fact that in a certain way this last conflict between the Ottomans and the Holy Roman Empire „awakened the Balkans” and became a catalyst for the national liberation movement of the Serbs, which gained strength at the beginning of the 19th century. The territory of modern Serbia became a central theater of military actions in this difficult positional war, and those were the Serbs who ensured the success of many military operations of the Austrian troops. The war of 1788–1791 belonged to those conflicts, the history of which was written, so to speak, „in real time”, and this in many ways created certain stereotypes in the reproduction of the pattern of military actions. The one-sidedness and stereotyped nature of the narrative sources can be compensated by using large cartographic material – both published and stored in the archives of Austria, Hungary, Turkey, Ukraine, Russia, etc. Serbia as a theater of military actions is depicted on most of these maps and military topographical plans developed in the last quarter of the 18th century, but, with the exception of the Josephinian Land Survey, none of them have become the object of even cataloging and classification, not to mention its careful studying. Therefore, the00 proposed article is the first comprehensive attempt to summarize the information about cartographic sources regarding Serbian lands during the Austro-Turkish War of 1788–1791. As additional sources, to verify historical and geographical information, military topographical descriptions of Serbian lands compiled by the Austrian administration and periodicals of the war period were used.The Austro-Turkish War of 1788–1791 has not yet been properly reflected in scientific literature despite the fact that in a certain way this last conflict between the Ottomans and the Holy Roman Empire „awakened the Balkans” and became a catalyst for the national liberation movement of the Serbs, which gained strength at the beginning of the 19th century.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Бібліотечно-інформаційне обслуговування національних меншин та корінних народів України в умовах викликів сучасності
No full textI. Petrova: ORCID 0000-0002-9032-3203; Ye. Horb: ORCID 0000-0002-9782-9194ENG: The study analyses the long-term trends in library and information services for representatives of ethnic communities in Ukraine after 2014. The focus on national minority issues is due to a number of challenges faced by ethnic communities since the beginning of the hybrid aggression of the Russian Federation and the COVID-19 pandemic. During this period, regional universal scientific libraries have become a unifying hub and space for intercultural dialogue for more than 130 ethnic groups in Ukraine, some of which are on the verge of extinction or assimilation. The authors focus on the analysis of current reporting materials of library institutions, which allows us to highlight the main achievements and problematic issues in the field of ensuring the rights of minorities to library and information services. Despite the steady attention of practicing librarians to minority issues, the comprehensive processing of a significant and heterogeneous array of statistical information over the past decade has remained outside the scope of research interests of library scientists. The identified long-term trends provide a theoretical basis for a substantive, rather than declarative, solution to the problems associated with minority access to literature in their native languages.UKR: Дослідження аналізує довгострокові тенденції, що простежуються у сфері бібліотечно-інформаційного обслуговування представників етнічних спільнот України після 2014 року. Фокус на проблематиці націнальних меншин обумовлений низкою викликів, з якими стикнулися етнічні громади з початком гібридної агресії РФ та пандемії COVID-19. Обласні універсальні наукові бібліотеки протягом окресленого періоду стали об'єднавчим хабом та простором міжкультурного діалогу для понад 130 етносів України, частина з яких знаходиться на межі зникнення, або асиміляції. Автори зосереджуються на аналізі поточних звітних матеріалів бібліотечних установ, що дає змогу виокремити основні здобутки та проблемні моменти у царині забезпечення прав меншин на бібліотечно-інформаційне обслуговування. Не дивлячись на стійку увагу практикуючих бібліотекарів до меншинної проблематики, комплексне опрацювання значного та різнорідного масиву статистичної інформації за останнє десятиліття до сьогодні залишалося поза сферою наукових інтересів вчених-бібліотекознавців. Виокремлені довгострокові тенденції дають теоретичну основу для предметного, а не декларативного вирішення проблем, пов'язаних із доступом меншин до літератури рідними мовами.Mariupol State University, Kyiv
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
