    A propósito de geometría y misterio de barrio de Juan Castillo

    El artículo de Nelly Richard evalúa cómo, desde el arte, se puede abordar lo popular sin caer en la mitificación ideológica, en la romantización nostálgica y el paternalismo condescendiente. En esta línea de preocupaciones, Richard sitúa el proyecto de Juan Castillo, Geometría y misterio de barrio como fuerza estética que, anclado en el espacio urbano, es capaz de explorar ciertas materias y relatos de lo popular más allá de toda formalización normativa y hegemónica de los diagnósticos de lo naciona

    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

    Spider poisoning in the Americas

    Las arañas de verdadero interés médico en el mundo pertenecen a los géneros Phoneutria, Loxosceles,Latrodectus y Atrax, el primero de los cuales se distribuye desde Costa Rica hasta Bolivia. El género Atrax se encuentra en Australia, Nueva Guinea y las islas Salomón. Loxosceles spp y Latrodectusspp son arañas cosmopolitas. El accidente aracnídico en América es un problema de salud pública en países como Chile, Estados Unidos y Brasil, siendo las mordeduras por Loxosceles spp más frecuentes en los dos primeros países y por Phoneutria spp en Brasil. En Colombia no conocemos publicaciones sobre accidentes por Loxosceles spp pero sí por Latrodectus spp en la primera mitad del siglo XX, y relatos recientes (1990s) de accidentes por Phoneutria spp en Antioquia. Se presenta una revisión de los aspectos taxonómicos, toxinológicos y clínicos del aracnidismo, de tal manera que nos permita estar atentos para diagnosticar y tratar correctamente estos accidentes.The spiders of true medical interest in the world belong to the genera Phoneutria, Loxosceles, Latrodectus and Atrax, the first of which is distributed from Costa Rica to Bolivia. The genus Atrax is found in Australia, New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. Loxosceles spp and Latrodectusspp are cosmopolitan spiders. The arachnid accident in America is a public health problem in countries such as Chile, the United States and Brazil, with bites by Loxosceles spp being more frequent in the first two countries and by Phoneutria spp in Brazil. In Colombia we do not know of publications on accidents due to Loxosceles spp but we do know about Latrodectus spp in the first half of the 20th century, and recent reports (1990s) of accidents due to Phoneutria spp in Antioquia. A review of the taxonomic, toxinological and clinical aspects of arachnidism is presented, in such a way that it allows us to be attentive to correctly diagnose and treat these accidents

    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

    Get PDF
    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
