Full text linkThe book Teatr i wychowanie (Theatre and Upbringing) by Krzysztof Homa, Justyna Sprutta, Weronika Pudełko and Katarzyna Skulska presents the history of the theatre, its essence, typology, as well as the role of the theatre in upbringing and therapy, especially for children. This book demonstrates, among others:
• Greek mysteries as the beginning of the European theatre,
• the history of the theatre in the world and Poland,
• the school theatre in the past and present,
• the essence of the theatre, as well as theatrical and paratheatrical genres.
Moreover, in this book examples of paintings presenting the theatre are displayed. The reviewed book is a multi-author monograph
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
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
Posługa słowa księdza Wawrzyńca Kuśniaka COr (1788-1866)
Full text linkThe beatification process of the Servant of God, Rev. Wawrzyniec Kuśniak, COr (1788-1866) has become an opportunity to recall and investigate his preaching heritage in the form of 18 preserved sermons for various occasions. In this paper, the sermons were subjected to a homiletical analysis. Most of them were built according to the frame commonly used at that time, the so called proper sermon. Fr. Kuśniak eagerly seeks recourse to biblical and patristic evidence, showing extensive expertise in both the Holy Scriptures and the writings of the Church Fathers. The performed analysis demonstrates clearly that the author is aware of the significance and power of God’s words, and, contrary to many other preachers of his time, does not limit his role in the sermon only to providing illustrations or arguments. He is just as serious about the teaching of the Church. Rev. Kuśniak does not present faith as the sum of a range of dogmas and moral obligations, but tries to show in his sermons God’s economy, oriented towards the authentic transformation and salvation of an individual. The sermons contain many specific references to the lives of his listeners, which renders them practical. This dimension depicts Fr. Kuśniak as committed to his ministry. The message of his sermons seems to still be relevant today, whereas his preaching and pastoral attitude - a role model for the current preachers of God’s words. In the same vein, the preaching of Rev. Kuśniak gives a representative picture of Polish service of the Word in Greater Poland in the first half of the 19th century.Prowadzony obecnie proces beatyfikacyjny sługi Bożego ks. Wawrzyńca Kuśniaka COr (1788-1866) stał się okazją do przypomnienia i zbadania jego spuścizny kaznodziejskiej w postaci osiemnastu zachowanych jego kazań na różne okazje. W niniejszym artykule zostały one poddane analizie homiletycznej. Większość z nich zbudowana jest według powszechnie stosowanego w tamtych czasach schematu tzw. kazania właściwego. Ksiądz Kuśniak chętnie posługuje się dowodem biblijnym i patrystycznym, wykazując się znakomitą znajomością zarówno Pisma Świętego, jak i pism Ojców Kościoła. Widać przy tym wyraźnie, że zdaje sobie sprawę z wagi i siły słowa Bożego, i w przeciwieństwie do wielu kaznodziejów jego epoki nie ogranicza jego roli w kazaniu tylko do ilustracji czy argumentu. Równie poważnie traktuje kościelne nauczanie. Nie przedstawia wiary jako sumy dogmatów i nakazów moralnych, lecz stara się ukazać ekonomię Bożą ukierunkowaną na autentyczną przemianę i zbawienie człowieka. Jego kazania zawierają wiele konkretnych odniesień do życia słuchaczy, co sprawia, że są one życiowe. Ten wymiar ukazuje go jako zaangażowanego duszpasterza. Przesłanie jego kazań wydaje się nadal aktualne, a jego postawa kaznodziejska i duszpasterska mogą stanowić wzór do naśladowania dla dzisiejszych głosicieli słowa Bożego. Przepowiadanie ks. Kuśniaka daje też pewien obraz polskiegokaznodziejstwa w Wielkopolsce w pierwszej połowie XIX wieku
