8 Tregimet që na krijojnë: Rrëfimet evropiane të Holokaustit dhe premtimi i praktikave të kujtesës kozmopolite shqiptare
No full textNë këtë punim, do të gjurmoj se si rrëfimet përkujtimore të Holokaustit përdoren në kontekstin bashkëkohor shqiptar për të krijuar një marrëdhënie të drejtpërdrejtë të këtij vendi me atë histori. Po ashtu, do të gjurmoj debatet mbi njohjen, pikëllimin dhe përfaqësimin e atyre që humbën gjatë regjimi socialist, nga viti 1944 deri në vitin 1991. Veçanërisht, përqëndrohem në përpjekjet e historianëve dhe politikanëve vendas si dhe historiografë të huaj amatorë dhe ekspertë pas vitit 1991, të cilët paraqesin Shqipërinë si një strehë të sigurtë për komunitetin hebre gjatë Luftës së Dytë Botërore si dhe përpjekjet e fundit për të përkujtuar Kampin e Internimit të Tepelenës të epokës socialiste, i cili gjatë punës sime në teren u quajt jozyrtarisht si Aushvici i Shqipërisës. Unë iu qasem këtyre rrëfimeve përmes thjerrzës së përvetësimit të kujtesës (Subotić 2019) në mënyrë që të kuptojmë se si rrëfimet shqiptare kontribuojnë në deterritorializimin dhe dekontekstualizimin e asaj që Levy dhe Sznaider (2002) e quajnë kulturë kozmopolite të kujtesës. Ndonëse të ndryshme, unë argumentoj se të dy përvetësimet flasin për kryqëzimin e shtigjeve të mëposhtme: përpjekjet shqiptare për të marrë pjesë në peizazhet më të gjera evropiane të kujtesës përmes riprodhimit të rrëfimeve të tyre specifike kombëtare dhe përpjekjeve më të gjera evropiane për të siguruar rrëfimet e kujtesës përmes përfshirjes së Evropës Juglindore
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
The Stories that Make Us: European Holocaust Narratives and the Promise of Albanian Cosmopolitan Memory Practices
Full text linkIn this paper, I explore how Holocaust memorial narratives are utilized in the contemporary Albanian context – to engage the country’s direct relationship with that history as well as debates over how to count, mourn, and represent those lost during the country’s socialist regime, from 1944 to 1991. In particular, I focus on post-1991 efforts by local historians and
politicians as well as foreign amateur and expert historiographers to exemplify Albania as a safe haven for the Jewish community during the Second World War and more recent efforts to commemorate the socialist era Tepelena Internment Camp, which took on the unofficial name of Albania’s Auschwitz during my fieldwork. I approach these narratives through the lens of memory appropriation (Subotić 2019) to understand how Albanian narratives contribute to the de-territorialization and de-contextualization of what Levy and Sznaider (2002) call a cosmopolitan memory culture. I argue that both appropriations, while different, ultimately speak to the intersection of the following tracks: Albanian efforts to participate in broader European memoryscapes through the reproduction of their own nationally specific narratives and broader European efforts to secure memory narratives through the inclusion of southeastern European ones
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
