Master scribes : Husin bin Ismail, Abdullah bin Abdulkadir Munsyi, their handwriting and the Hikayat Abdullah
Roger Tol
Cet article traite de deux éminentes personnalités du monde des Lettres malaises, qui ont travaillé en étroite collaboration à Singapour, dans les années 1830 et 1840. Le premier, Abdullah bin Abdulkadir connut le succès comme la gloire dès le début de sa carrière. Son autobiographie, Hikayat Abdullah ainsi que ses autres œuvres sont toujours lues et appréciées à l'heure actuelle. Le second, le Bugis Husin Bin Ismail - sans doute le scribe le plus productif en manuscrits malais - demeure beaucoup moins connu. Un examen de leur graphies respectives pourrait conduire à résoudre l'énigme des «deux» Hikayat Abdullah conservées aujourd'hui en Nouvelle-Zélande.
Cet examen est basé sur une prometteuse technique d'analyse des graphies enjawi qui devrait apporter des éléments nouveaux dans le débat sur l'identification de celles-ci.Tol Roger.

Khilaf di antara imam Al-Rafi‘i dan imam Al-Nawawi dalam ibadah: Analisis terhadap metodologi pentarjihan / Muhamad Ismail Abdullah
Al-Imam al-Rafi‘i dan al-Imam al-Nawawi merupakan dua tokoh besar dalam mazhab
Shafi‘i. Peranan mereka dalam memurnikan semula mazhab ini adalah usaha besar yang
tiada tolok bandingnya dengan generasi terdahulu mahupun yang terkemudian. Para
Shafi‘iyyah yang menyusul sesudah mereka telah sepakat bahawa sebarang hukum yang
disepakati bersama oleh kedua-dua imam tersebut adalah pendapat muktamad dalam
mazhab. Jika mereka berselisih maka pandangan al-Imam al-Nawawi akan diutamakan
sekiranya beliau mempunyai alasan pentarjihan. Justeru itu, objektif kajian ini adalah untuk
mengenal pasti faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi perselisihan di antara al-Imām al-Rāfi‘i
dan al-Imam al-Nawawi hingga menghasilkan hukum yang berbeza-beza. Selain itu juga
bertujuan untuk menghurai keberkesanan aplikasi metodologi hukum mazhab Shafi‘i oleh
kedua-dua imam tersebut dalam masalah-masalah yang diperselisihkan antara mereka
khususnya dalam bab ibadah. Di samping itu juga bertujuan untuk menilai metodologi yang
digunakan oleh kedua-dua mereka dalam proses mentarjihkan hukum. Untuk itu, penulis
telah memilih bahagian taharah daripada bab ibadat sebagai sampel kajian ini.
Berpandukan metode historikal dan dokumentasi, data-data yang diperoleh telah dianalisis
dengan menggunakan pendekatan induktif, deduktif dan komparatif. Di antara dapatan
kajian ini menunjukkan bahawa al-Imām al-Rāfi‘i dan al-Imam al-Nawawi sangat konsisten
berpegang kepada usul mazhab yang telah ditetapkan oleh al-Imam al-Shafi‘i. Selain itu,
penguasaan al-Imām al-Nawawi dalam bidang hadis dan kemahiran beliau dalam bidang
fiqh dan usūlnya telah memberikan kelebihan kepada beliau melakukan pentarjihan hukum
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
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
The application of critical thinking in the process of jar? wa-ta?d?l in the science of ?ad?th
The process of critical thinking could be employed in evaluating the strength and weakness of any argument. As regards jar? wa-ta?d?l (impugnment and validation), mu?addith?n (scholars of ?ad?th) examine the reliability and trustworthiness of the transmitters to establish the acceptability of their report as being attributed to Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.). Jar? wa-ta?d?l, which constitutes the criticism of the chain of transmitters and textual criticism, is regarded as the first part of ?ad?th criticism. This study analyses the elements of critical thinking in differentiating between fact and opinion, author bias rhetoric, comparing and contrasting, judgment and logical conclusion, etc., whereby these elements are crucial to determine the reliability and trustworthiness of narrators of ?ad?th. Moreover, it discusses the application of these techniques as propounded by the mu?addith?n in jar? wa-ta?d?l
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
