    Kate Bishop: Reflections on Chicory Market

    No full text
    Oxford native, Kate Bishop opened Chicory Market with her husband, John Martin in 2017, purchasing the Farmer’s Market Store from Liz Stagg and Frank Coppola. Mission driven, Chicory has become an Oxford-Lafayette County staple connecting consumers to locally produced, fresh food. In January of 2024, Chicory moved to its current location on North Lamar. It has grown considerably alongside the population and local food movement, now offering meat and produce from nearly fifty local farmers and foodmakers. In this oral history, Kate and I discussed the challenges expanding into a full service grocery, attitudes towards seasonality, reflections on the Oxford food economy, and her future goals for the store. Turner Wolffe grew up in Memphis, Tennessee. He completed his B.A. in History at Loyola University New Orleans where he studied foodways and environmental history while also working in restaurant kitchens, bakeries and butcher shops. He is currently an M.A. candidate in Southern Studies and Documentary Expression, planning to further explore the future of sustainable, equitable food production

    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

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    Del cómic a la pantalla. Adaptación de la serie "Jóvenes Vengadores" de Marvel y escritura de guion del episodio piloto: "Kate Bishop"

    Get PDF
    El siguiente trabajo tuvo como objetivo principal realizar la elaboración narrativa y la escritura del guion piloto de ésta a través de la adaptación de unos personajes sacados de Marvel Comics (los Jóvenes Vengadores) y, además, enmarcándola dentro de la narrativa y continuidad del universo cinematográfico de Marvel (UCM). La metodología empleada se basó en una revisión bibliográfica teórica sobre adaptación y guion cinematográficos; y un análisis de los personajes a través de los comics y del UCM. Gracias a esto, se pudo llevar a cabo una propuesta creativa: por una parte, la construcción narrativa de “Jóvenes Vengadores”; y, por otro lado, la escritura del guion piloto de la serie: “Episodio 1. Kate Bishop”, llegando a la conclusión de que es posible realizar una adaptación cinematográfica de personajes sacados del cómic ubicándolos en el contexto narrativo de un Universo cinematográfico ya existente.The main objective of the following work was to carry out the narrative development and the writing of the pilot script through the adaptation of characters taken from Marvel Comics (the Young Avengers) and, in addition, framing it within the narrative and continuity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The methodology employed was based on a theoretical literature review on film adaptation and screenwriting; and an analysis of the characters through the comics and the MCU. Thanks to this, it was possible to carry out a creative proposal: on the one hand, the narrative construction of "Young Avengers"; and, on the other hand, the writing of the pilot script of the series: "Episode 1. Kate Bishop", reaching the conclusion that it is possible to make a film adaptation of characters taken from the comic placing them in the narrative context of an existing cinematic Universe.Departamento de Comunicación Audiovisual y PublicidadMáster en Cine, comunicación e Industria Audiovisua
