Andrew Kerek Oral History
No full textAndrew Kerek, a Hungarian-born American, was Provost at the American University in Cairo from 1992 to 1998. During his time as Provost AUC transitioned to a three-schools structure, under President Donald McDonald, and Kerek managed the accreditation process and launched initiatives to examine the university’s liberal arts mission. Kerek discusses issues affecting the faculty at the time, including inequality in compensation between local and relocated hires and the resistance to attempts to impose a retirement age for Egyptian faculty. He describes processes and challenges for faculty recruiting and hiring, research, evaluation, and the tenure and promotion system (including the Provost’s and President’s overruling of committee recommendations). An overview of academic departments and leading faculty and administrators is also provided. Kerek offers his views on AUC students as well, including their socio-economic and religious background, social lives, academic quality, and the level of their English language skills. He comments also on external factors affecting the university, from terrorism in Egypt (including an attack near campus) to the university’s relationship with the Egyptian government (in particular an academic freedom and book censorship issue that arose), as well as AUC’s reputation and standing in Egyptian society

Egy négyszögletű, de mégis kerek hely. A kollektív emlékezet színtere Lázár Ervin A Négyszögletű Kerek Erdő című művében
No full textA tanulmány Pierre Nora kollektív emlékezettel összefüggő elméletére építve fogalmazta meg hipotézisét, miszerint a Lázár Ervin A Négyszögletű Kerek Erdő című műve emlékezethelyként értelmezhető. A kutatás a narratívaelemzés kvalitatív módszerével, célzott mintán vizsgálta az elméleti feltevést. A három kiválasztott epizód emlékezetalkotó és -formáló működési hálóját térképeztem fel. Az elemzés az emlékezethely fogalmát a norai hármas, azaz a materiális, a funkcionális és a szimbolikus értelemben használta. A dolgozat egyúttal arra is kitér, hogy a mesék implicit tartalma, láthatatlan pedagógiai eszköztára miként járul hozzá a mű pedagógiai szerepének kanonizálódásához. A Négyszögletű Kerek Erdő ugyanis egy olyan emlékezeti tér, amely egy-egy szituáción túl, a közösségi lét, identitás működési mechanizmusait is tárolja

The growing of vegetables, one of the strategic possibility of the Hungarian agricultural improvement
No full textThe development of market-gardening can be one of the hopeful possibilities of the agriculture; the function is still competitive but its competitiveness is decreasing. It is national, consumer and economic interest to improve the sector as the unemployment in the countryside can also be reduced. During the producing we must attach the importance to the quality as in the EU only that farmer can suit the requirements who can usually deliver reliable quality product. The sector is deficient in funds, so the technical, innovative and logistic improvement hung behind the requests. This fact has to be changed. Our advantageous conditions open the door to increase production output and to use the logistic possibilities thanked to our geographical location. An entire improving packet is needed to the development, creating the industrial background, increasing the internal consumption, producing organic food, specialties, traditional Hungarian products, taking the advantage of market gaps, organization, improvement of logistic and marketing work, spreading of watering and thermal water heating, stressed preferring of works related to search and technical advice are necessary. There is no result without producers’ collaboration. Watering is essential by market-gardening; the watered area has to be doubled. According to our research the vegetable forcing can have good results if use of heating based on thermal water or biomass. -------------------------------------------- A zöldségtermelés fejlesztése a hazai agrártermelés egyik Ãgéretes lehetÅ‘sége, a tevékenység ma még versenyképes, de versenyképessége csökken.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
No full text“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
