Heribert Svetel as an amateur and a professional musician
No full textDoktorska disertacija obravnava družbene in kulturne okoliščine prve polovice 20. stoletja na Slovenskem, ki so vplivale na delovanje in vsestranski razvoj ljubiteljskih glasbenih društev. Posamezna društva, kot je ljubljansko delavsko Narodno železničarsko glasbeno društvo Sloga, so razvila visok nivo tako na poustvarjalnem kot vzgojno-izobraževalnem področju ter prispevala pomemben delež k razvijanju ljubiteljske in profesionalne glasbene kulture. K takšnim premikom so največ prispevali vodilni akterji društev, ki so bili večinoma tudi glasbeni ljubitelji (zborovodje in/ali pedagogi) in so se, ob maloštevilnih profesionalnih glasbenikih, v društvih strokovno razvijali. Nemalokrat so presegli ljubiteljsko raven in postali profesionalni glasbeniki. V ospredju disertacije je raziskovanje poustvarjalnega, ustvarjalnega, pedagoškega in uredniškega delovanja Heriberta Svetela (1895‒1962) kot vodje ljubljanske Sloge in opernega dirigenta Slovenskega narodnega gledališča v Mariboru. Disertacija osvetljuje družbeno-politične okoliščine in predvsem kulturne dejavnosti, v katerih je Svetel deloval, njegovo izobrazbeno in poklicno pot ter obširno glasbeno dejavnost. Kot ljubiteljski glasbenik je svoje delo začel kot zborovodja v okviru društev Slavec in Sloga, pri čemer je pomembno segel tudi na področje glasbene pedagogike, ter nadaljeval kot skladatelj in dirigent v Slovenskem narodnem gledališču Maribor, kar ga je izoblikovalo v profesionalnega glasbenika. Vzporedno so raziskana in sistematično predstavljena temeljna dejstva o obsegu, vrsti in značilnostih njegovega delovanja na področju operne poustvarjalnosti in skladateljskega opusa.This doctoral thesis, entitled Heribert Svetel as an Amateur and a Professional Musician, delves into the social and cultural milieu of the first half of the 20th century in Slovenia, which influenced the operations and all-round development of amateur musical societies. Individual societies, such as the Ljubljana National Railway Music Society Sloga, attained a high standard both in performance and educational aspects, playing a pivotal role in fostering both amateur and professional musical culture. These advancements were largely propelled by key figures within the mentioned societies, who were predominantly music enthusiasts (choirmasters and/or educators) that honed their skills within the societies alongside a handful of professional musicians. Frequently, they surpassed the amateur realm and transitioned into professional musicians. The central focus of this thesis thus lies in exploring the performance, creative, educational, and editorial activities of Heribert Svetel (1895–1962) as the leader of Ljubljana\u27s Sloga and the operatic conductor at the Slovenian National Theatre in Maribor. This thesis sheds light on the sociopolitical context and, notably, the cultural endeavors in which Svetel was immersed, tracing his educational and professional trajectory alongside his extensive musical engagements. Starting out as an amateur musician, he began as a choirmaster within the societies Slavec and Sloga, where he made significant contributions to music education. He then progressed as a composer and conductor at the Slovenian National Theatre in Maribor, ultimately shaping him into a seasoned professional musician. At the same time, this thesis meticulously examines and presents foundational facts about the extent, nature, and characteristics of his work within the specters of operatic performance and compositional output
Rudolf Wagner v Mariboru

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
Raziskovanje mariborske glasbene zgodovine: Stanje in perspektiva
Get PDFThe article presents an overview of the literature on Maribor’s music history from the thirteenth century to the present day and highlights the problem of the organised archive material of various institutions. An analysis of current achievements reveals gaps in our knowledge of the sections of Maribor’s music history discussed to date and suggests areas for further research.Glavni namen prispevka je ugotavljanje stanja raziskanosti glasbene zgodovine Maribora od prvih ohranjenih rokopisov iz 13. stoletja do današnjih dni. Predstavljena so ključna hranišča glasbenega gradiva v Mariboru, pri čemer je izpostavljena problematika razmer (ne)ustrezno urejenega arhivskega gradiva različnih institucij. Zgoščen pregled literature razkriva vrzeli v vednosti doslej obravnavanih odsekih mariborske glasbene zgodovine, saj se na tem področju raziskovanje odvija predvsem stihijsko in manj sistematično, ter (lahko) predstavlja iztočnice za nadaljnje raziskovalno delo
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
