The Duality of Characters of Dion Anthony in The Great God Brown Drama by Eugene O’neill
Get PDFThis study analyzes the duality of the characters of Dion Anthony in “The Great God Brown” drama by Eugene O’neill. The duality of the characters is represented by the mask of Dion. The mask is created by Dion himself and treated as an object. The masked character is considered as the unreal
characters of Dion Anthony and the unmasked one as the real characters. New Criticism is used in analyzing the conflict of this character. Close Reading is used as the methodology in the process analyzing of this research. This research
is using qualitative method of collecting the data it needs. The analysis considers the following formal elements; characters, plot and conflict, and linguistic devices, to determine the theme of the drama. The plot of the drama where the conflict resides is analyzed in need for better understanding of the drama. The analysis is focused on the inner conflict of Dion Anthony created by the duality
of the characters he has. The duality of the characters, the plot, the conflicts, and the irony of the drama are taken account as a step for conclusion of the theme: Tragedy of Love.”The Great God Brown” has the theme of Tragedy of
Love since Dion Anthony as the protagonist is unable to achieve his objective and dies leaving his problem unresolved. It is the conflict of the duality of the
characters between the masked and the unmasked Dion Anthony as the cause of the tragedy in the drama
BALI TRADITIONAL HOUSING APPROACHMENT ASPECT OF BALINESE CULTURE AND ANTHROPOMETRIC
Get PDFIn Balinese traditional architecture, form, space, and measurement is caused by the function .All activities will need the spaces to accommodate them. More changes of activities occurred more changes of the space required to accommodate .At this time, function and form of the traditional Balinese housing has been moving by its lay out and the tradition value, it is caused by the limited of land, high price and the economic growth of Bali. The movement is not only occurred in the city, but also spread over the village area. The limited land and space is not making the limitation to the the needs of human being to build the traditional Balinese house even though they are using the smallest size of space. All sizes are depending on the Balinese anthropometric measurement. The purpose of this research is to obtain the Balinese anthropometric information and data’s which is based on their sikut (measurement)in traditional Balinese architecture, such as: Sikut Karang or measurement of the land size for house, Sikut Natah or the distance of each building, Sikut Gegulak or the measurement used for the size of the building. Anthropometric measurement can be functioned as development and innovation also as basic determination for building measurement in comply with traditional Balinese architecture aspect for the small, medium, even the largest measurement, until the community able to choose or reserve the proper size as their budget and the needs.

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
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
