    A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo explorar as fronteiras entre documentário e ficção audiovisual, mais especificamente, o uso intercalado de ficção e não ficção para compor o retrato de um artista. Para se aprofundar nesse assunto, foi selecionado o filme "Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese" (2019), que retrata o artista Bob Dylan na turnê de mesmo nome entre 1975-1976, misturando fatos e invenções, contando e recontando a história de um tempo perdido. A busca, a partir da obra, é alcançar respostas tangíveis acerca dos fatores narrativos, ou seja, a estratégia narrativa de intercalar fato e invenção representa a autenticidade do artista que viveu diversas décadas no palco com múltiplas personas? O desenvolvimento da metodologia desta pesquisa se deu a partir do uso de técnicas de pesquisa bibliográfica, observações empíricas, artigos eletrônicos e análise da linguagem cinematográfica, por meio da separação de cenas, que buscam burilar sentido em correlação com a personalidade do artista. No primeiro capítulo, são apresentados os conceitos, introduzindo discussões teóricas e definindo o que é o gênero documentário, além de realizar um breve retrospecto da sua história. Em seguida, no segundo capítulo, introduzimos Bob Dylan, balanceando a biografia com as características apresentadas no filme. No terceiro capítulo, são discutidos os aspectos do filme, a partir das análises de cena e seus significados, aprofundando-se nas invenções do filme que são intercaladas entre fatos. Por fim, nas considerações finais, realiza-se um apanhado do que se percebeu das possibilidades que a união intercalada de ficção e não ficção permite ao construtor de narrativas, apontando possíveis caminhos para a realização audiovisual documental. A pesquisa demonstrou que a combinação de elementos factuais e ficcionais pode enriquecer a construção narrativa de documentários, proporcionando uma representação mais complexa e autêntica do sujeito retratado. Essa abordagem oferece novas perspectivas para o desenvolvimento de documentários inovadores e multidimensionais no campo audiovisual.This research aims to explore the boundaries between documentary and audiovisual fiction, specifically the interwoven use of fiction and non-fiction to compose the portrait of an artist. To delve deeper into this subject, the film "Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese" (2019) was selected. This film portrays the artist Bob Dylan on his tour of the same name between 1975-1976, mixing facts and inventions, telling and retelling the story of a lost time. The objective, based on the film, is to obtain tangible answers about the narrative factors, i.e., does the narrative strategy of interweaving fact and invention represent the authenticity of the artist who has lived through various decades on stage with multiple personas? The development of the methodology for this research was based on the use of bibliographic research techniques, empirical observations, electronic articles, and analysis of cinematic language, through the separation of scenes that seek to refine the sense in correlation with the artist's personality. In the first chapter, the concepts are presented, introducing theoretical discussions and defining what the documentary genre is, as well as providing a brief overview of its history. Next, in the second chapter, we introduce Bob Dylan, balancing his biography with the characteristics presented in the film. In the third chapter, the aspects of the film are discussed, based on scene analyses and their meanings, delving into the film's inventions that are interspersed with facts. Finally, in the concluding remarks, a summary is made of what has been perceived about the possibilities that the interwoven union of fiction and non-fiction allows for the narrative builder, pointing out possible paths for audiovisual documentary production. The research demonstrated that the combination of factual and fictional elements can enrich the narrative construction of documentaries, providing a more complex and authentic representation of the subject portrayed. This approach offers new perspectives for the development of innovative and multidimensional documentaries in the audiovisual field

    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

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We 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

    We 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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
