Vida e comunidade em Clube da Luta e A praia
Get PDFA partir das narrativas Clube da luta (1996) de Chuck Palahniuk e A praia
(1996) de Alex Garland, o presente artigo investiga as configurações comunitárias
que essas ficções propõem na virada do milênio. Os dois livros são
o ponto de partida para analisar uma dialética da ruptura e da fundação, do
lugar e do território, mas também entre arte e vida, já que a narrativa comunitária
assombra a própria paixão pelo real (Alain Badiou, O século). É diante
dessa contradição que as leituras de Giorgio Agamben (A comunidade que vem),
Jean-Luc Nancy (A comunidade inoperante) e Massimo Cacciari (Nomes de lugar:
confim) nos permitem discutir o paradoxo da relação sujeito e comunidade. As
duas narrativas analisadas propõem um deslocamento diante do mundo em
nome de um outro lugar. Tornados território, configuram-se a partir de identidades,
Clube, ou de restrições geográficas, Praia, e passam então a encenar
exatamente as contradições que pretendiam romper. É para esse fracasso, que
não é mais o universalista, que o presente trabalho atenta
Ana Cristina Cesar e Paulo Leminski trocam cartas
Get PDFO texto a seguir tem como objeto as poéticas de Ana Cristina Cesar e
Paulo Leminski, mais precisamente no que tocam uma “retórica da correspondência”. O trabalho propõe uma aproximação entre dois poetas emblemáticos das décadas de 70 e 80 (os únicos com correspondências publicadas) na perspectiva da interlocução e interpelação do outro que suas poéticas sugerem. Para tal leitura, foram trabalhados textos de Flora Süssekind, Marcos Siscare Silviano Santiago, que exploram estas questões na poética de Ana C., além do referencial teórico de Jacques Lacan (“O seminário sobre a carta roubada”) e Jaques Derrida (O cartão-postal), e ainda o referencial de David Wellbery acerca da retoricidade e do endereçamento
Letter: a carta/letra e o jogo da correspondência
Get PDFO presente ensaio tem como ponto de partida a leitura do conto “A carta roubada” de Edgar Alan Poe e suas análises elaboradas por Jacques Lacan em “O Seminário sobre A carta roubada” (Escritos, 1998) e por Jacques Derrida em “O carteiro da verdade” (O cartão-postal, 2007), além da leitura de Nancy e Labarthe em O título da letra (1991) e ainda Rene Major em Lacan com Derrida (2002). O texto tem como aposta a potência do significante letter/lettre que significa tanto “carta” quando “letra”, daí sua potência, da carta/letra, como possível literatura. O trabalho ainda conta com leituras, acerca da epistolografia, de Josefina Ludmer, Emile Cioran, Juan José Saer, Liliana Heer e Silviano Santiago. O trabalho aborda também a leitura de Michel Foucault em “A escrita de si” (O que é um autor?, 1992) que pensará a correspondência como uma forma de escrita de si, apesar de destinada ao outro. A partir disto, o presente ensaio tem como objetivo principal pensar o procedimento da correspondência entre artistas/poetas como um jogo de posições ambivalentes, e não como uma troca estática de mensagens entre remetente e destinatário
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
