The toy in jewellery – The toy as jewellery
Full text linkU okviru autorskog projekta dr. sc. Iris Biškupić Bašić Svijet igračaka, priređen je i ciklus tematskih predavanja vezanih za odabrane segmente u sastavu pojedinih izložbi i/ili u ponudi muzejske suvenirnice. Predstavljen je i dio suvremene zagrebačke zlatarske scene koji oblikuje nakitne predmete inspirirane tradicijskim igračkama i domaćim folklornim nasljeđem. Odabrani primjerci ustaljenih formi i likovnih motiva na drvenim i tekstilnim dječjim igračkama, na licitarskim proizvodima, kao i likovima omiljenih životinja i/ili uporabnih predmeta iz svakodnevice prepoznaju se u kreacijama pojedinih vrsta nakita i/ili dekorativnih predmeta kućnog interijera nekolicine zlatarskih radionica i likovnih stvaralaca iz područja primijenjenih umjetnosti. U kontekstu domaćeg zlatarskog stvaralaštva ogleda se individualni i društveni pristup fenomenu nakita/kićenja kao i refleksije složenih baštinjenih sadržajno-simboličkih značenja. Ovaj članak ponešto je proširen pisani komentar usmenog izlaganja istoimene teme što je održana u Etnografskom muzeju u Zagrebu u svibnju 2013.The World of Toys project authored by Iris Biškupić Bašić, Ph.D. included a series of thematic lectures related to specific segments in the displayed exhibitions and/or items on sale in the souvenir shop of the Ethnographic Museum. It also presented a part of the current goldsmith production in Zagreb and the design of jewellery inspired by traditional toys and national folklore heritage. Selected examples of established forms and art motifs on wooden and cloth children’s toys, on gingerbread ware, and figures of favourite animals and/ or objects of everyday use are recognised in the designs of specific jewellery and/or decorative home interior objects produced by some goldsmith’s workshops and applied art designers. The national goldsmith production reflects the individual and social approach to the phenomenon of jewellery and adornment and more complex, inherited substantial-symbolic meanings. This article is a somewhat longer written comment of a verbal presentation on the same topic held at the Ethnographic Museum in Zagreb in May 2013
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
Jantar i koralji
No full textJantar i koralj se upotrebljavaju kao nakit kod mnogih pretpovijesnih plemena/naroda. Oba materijala imaju svoju priču o postanku u grčkoj mitologiji. Izložba Jantar i koralji zamišljena je u namjeri da prikaže izrađevine od materijala koji su osvojili i još uvijek osvajaju srca mnogih naroda Europe, kako svojom bojom, tako i ljepotom. Prezentiran je arheološki i etnografski materijal s ukupno više od dvije stotine raznovrsnih izložaka
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
