Jean Dubuisson : l’abstraction constructive
No full textInternational audienceAbstract : Architecte prolifique et exigeant, Jean Dubuisson est l'un des symboles forts des Trente Glorieuses. Auteur d'un nombre impressionnant de réalisations, il a su imposer au logement de masse un style et une qualité d'usage très largement reconnus, que son cadet Claude Parent décrit en ces termes : « L'architecture de Jean Dubuisson ? Avant tout l'amour de l'horizontale. Une horizontale rigoureuse, absolue, sans remise en question possible. Le culte de la pureté de la ligne. À la limite du graphisme, de l'épure. » Concepteur d'opérations qui ont marqué l'histoire de la construction et de l'habitat (le SHAPE Village à Saint-Germain-en-Laye, la résidence du Parc à Croix, Maine-Montparnasse, la ZUP de Chambéry), Jean Dubuisson, à qui l'on doit également le musée des Arts et Traditions populaires à Paris, a développé une esthétique proche de l'art abstrait et une subtile dialectique entre le dedans et le dehors. Cet ouvrage est la première monographie qui lui est consacrée
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
The architect Jean Dubuisson (1914-2011) : when drawing stands the test of usage
No full textL'œuvre de l'architecte Jean Dubuisson prend appui sur une culture artistique familiale et un cursus honorum, couronné d'un Grand Prix de Rome en 1945. Ce parcours académique et sa connaissance de l'avant-garde internationale sont ses principaux atouts face à la multiplication des demandes de l'après-guerre. Sa production vise à concilier deux champs apparemment contradictoires, l'héritage de l'École des Beaux-arts et une modernité affirmée. Marqué par Mies van der Rohe ou Jean Prouvé, il développe une architecture graphique, épurée et innovante, grâce à l'usage de l'aluminium et de matériaux verriers. En région parisienne, dans le Nord et dans l'Est, il contribue à la définition d'un habitat raffiné. À la tête d'une importante agence à Paris, il conçoit des plans de villes, édifie le musée des Arts et Traditions populaires, restaure la villa Savoye. Il obtient des responsabilités institutionnelles et s'engage dans le débat doctrinal : architecte des Bâtiments civils et des Palais nationaux, il enseigne à l'École Saint-Luc de Tournai et préside le Cercle d'études architecturales. Son action est soutenue par les instances traditionnelles de la profession et la sphère technique. Dans ses différentes fonctions, il renouvelle les compétences et les modes opératoires de l'architecte : échanges transnationaux, collaborations artistiques, contribution au design, restauration du patrimoine moderne. Durant un siècle riche de bouleversements, il incarne une modernité hégémonique et affronte ses contradictions.The oeuvre of the architect Jean Dubuisson rests on an artistic upbringing and a cursus honorum, crowned by a Grand Prix de Rome in 1945. His academic record and knowledge of the international avant-garde were his main assets when faced with the increase of commissions in the post-war era. His production aimed to reconcile two seemingly contradictory fields: the heritage of the École des Beaux-arts and an affirmed modernity. Marked by Mies van der Rohe or Jean Prouvé, he developed a graphie, uncluttered and innovative architecture through the use of aluminium and glassware. He contributed to the design of sophisticated housing in the Paris area and in the North and East of France. White at the head of an important Parisian agency, he designed city plans, constructed the Musée des Arts et Traditions populaires (Museum of popular arts and traditions), and restored the villa Savoye. He gained institutional responsibilities and engaged in the doctrinal debate: as an architecte des Bâtiments civils and Palais nationaux (architect of Civil Buildings and National Palaces), he taught at the École Saint-Luc de Tournai and presided over the Cercle d'études architecturales (society of architectural studies). His activity was supported both by traditional authorities in the profession and by the technical sphere. In the course of his various duties, he renewed the scope of the architect's skills and work methods: transnational exchanges, artistic collaborations, contribution to design, and restoration of modern built heritage. During a century of intense upheaval he embodied hegemonic modernity and faced its contradictions
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
