Town statutes of the town of Debrzno from 1407
No full textWilkierz miasta Debrzna z 1407 r. jest obecnie najstarszym znanym nauce zbiorem
praw małych miast na Pomorzu Gdańskim. Przygotowany przez Radę Miejską i zatwierdzony
przez Krzyżaków dokument składa się z 48 artykułów, które regulowały najważniejsze
aspekty życia gminy oraz wprowadzały sankcje karne za określone wykroczenia. Odpis
dokumentu zachowany w Archiwum Państwowym w Szczecinie pozwala zakładać, że jego
pierwotna treść mogła mieć inny układ oraz że niektóre postanowienia były aktualizowane
po wydaniu wilkierza. Zbiór praw regulował życie gminy w niemalże niezmienionej formie
aż do pierwszego rozbioru Polski w 1772 r.Town statutes of Debrzno from 1407 are currently the oldest known collection of rights
of small towns in Pomerania. The document prepared by the City Council and approved by
the Teutonic Knights consists of 48 articles which regulated the most important aspects of
the life of the commune and introduced penal sanctions for specific offenses. A copy of the
document preserved in the State Archives in Szczecin allows us to assume that its original
content could have had a different layout and that some resolutions were updated after
the release of the statutes. The set of laws regulated the life of the commune in an almost
unchanged form until the first partition of Polish Commonwealth in 1772
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
Manumission as a legal action in the judicial practice of Royal Prussia in the second half of the 17th and 18th c.
No full textPublikacja recenzowana / Peer-reviewed publicationUwolnienie (wyzwolenie, manumissio, libertacja, emancypacja) miało podstawowe znaczenie dla praw i obowiązków dotychczasowych stron stosunku poddańczego: chłop zyskiwał dzięki niemu wolność, tracąc jednocześnie wynikające z poddaństwa ograniczenia, zaś pan pozbywał się poddanego, najczęściej otrzymując w zamian konkretne korzyści materialne. Interesująca wydaje się zarówno analiza formalnej strony czynności, jak i jej treści w zakresie skutków prawnych oraz faktycznych. Tym bardziej że nadanie wolności osobistej nie należało w Prusach Królewskich wcale do rzadkości, a literatura na ten temat
nie jest obfita i odnosi się w większości tylko do konsekwencji społecznych, nie zaś warstwy
prawnej.Manumission (manumissio, liberation, emancipation) was essential for the existing rights and obligations of a serf and his former master. It is interesting to analyse the formal side of this legal action and its content in terms of legal and actual consequences. The more so as awarding personal freedom was not at all uncommon in Prussia, and the literature on this subject usually refers to social consequences only.
Based on the rich source material, the author discusses the manumission as a legal action in the practice of Prussia in the latter half of 17th and in the 18th centuries, focusing on its role, form, and the ways for insuring the new status of the former subject

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
