Fleet Management and Naval Warfare. Geographic Origin and Onboard Life Regulations of the Royal Catalan-Aragonese Fleets against the Kingdom of Tunis (1430-1435)
No full textThe recurrence of war and the different areas where the armies were mobilised make the reign of Alfonso the Magnanimous an outstanding laboratory for the social study of war. Furthermore, it is even more excellent thanks to the vast amount of documentation preserved, which allows us to study the period in a much more comprehensive way. This paper would aim to be an approach the human component of the medieval Aragonese fleets analysing the particular case of the Royal fleet organised by King Alfons the Magnanimous in 1432 against de Tunisian island of Djerba. Often the motivation and relationship between the sea and the men who participated in such expeditions were very diverse, heterogeneous or even non-existent. The armada became somehow an exchange between social groups, sometimes forced, of different influences –economic, social, political, cultural- of different social status, communities of diverse territories and Kingdoms of the Crown of Aragon and, finally, between seafarers and landsmen. In this sense, we will focus on the study of the geographical and social origin of the crews of the Armada. Specifically, to the men who served in the four Royal ships and the Royal galley of the fleet. First of all, we will identify the centres of enlistment, and we will focus on the recruitment system. Secondly, we can note the nationalities so recorded, and comment on the patterns of service of the foreigner and identify if there was a government policy towards the service of crews of non Catalano-Aragonese origin, and the consequent attempts to record nationality on the enrolment books.Peer reviewe
Quan la terra lluita. La defensa de la vila d'Igualada durant la Guerra Civil catalana
Get PDF[EN] The aim of this study is to do a first approximation on the organisation and structure of the military defence during the Catalan Civil war (1462-1472) of the town of Igualada. This military and political conflict faced the King John II of Aragon and the Institutions of the Principality of Catalonia. From the very beginning, cities and towns were involved in the general conflict. In this sense, these settlements started up the defence of their towns. Our sources show us a well organised and structured system of defence, probably common among cities and towns of the Principality.[ES] El estudio que se presenta a continuación es una primera aproximación a la estructura y organización de la defensa de la villa de Igualada durante la Guerra Civil Catalana (1462-1472), conflicto bélico y político que enfrentó al rey Juan II de Aragón contra las instituciones del Principado de Cataluña Desde los inicios, en que villas y ciudades fueron involucradas en el conflicto general, las poblaciones se organizaron para la defensa de su plaza. La documentación localizada nos ha permitido ver una defensa muy bien estructurada que respondía a un esquema bastante común en distintas ciudades i villas del Principado.[CA] L'estudi que es presenta a continuació és una primera aproximació a l'estructura i organització de la defensa de la vila d'Igualada durant la Guerra Civil Catalana (1462-1472), conflicte bèl·lic i polític que va enfrontar el rei Joan II d'Aragó contra les institucions del Principat de Catalunya. Des dels inicis, a les viles i ciutats van ser involucrades en el conflicte general, les poblacions s'organitzaren per la defensa de la seva plaça. La documentació localitzada ens ha permès veure una defensa molt ben estructurada que responia a un esquema bastant comú en diferents ciutats i viles del Principat.Aquest estudi s’emmarca dins del projecte de recerca aprovat i finançat pel MINECO «Tripulacions, armaments, construcció naval i navegació en la Mediterrània medieval» (MINECO HAR2013-48433-C2-1-P), dirigit per la doctora Roser Salicrú i Lluch (IMF-CSIC).Peer reviewe

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
