    Jack Kramer: a personal vision through craftsmanship / S. Tatiana Spinari -- An interview with David Aronson, Reed Kay, and Sidney Hurwitz / Lois Tarlow. Includes bibliographical references.This is the catalogue of the exhibition "Jack Kramer: A Retrospective" held at Boston University Art Gallery from February 26 - April 3, 1988. S. Tatiana Spinari with an interview by Lois TarlowBOSTON REALIST ARTISTS of the past four decades, many of them affiliated initially with the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and later with Boston University, have generally considered their art as a form of personal expression within the tradition of art and craftsmanship. Jack Kramer was a part of this Boston tradition from the early 1940s, first as a student in the Museum School and later as an artist and art professor at Boston University's School of Visual Arts. His art and career reflect his figure-based training as well as contemporary developments of art in the city. Kramer, a versatile artist who experimented with different ideas and styles, expressed in his work the artist's craft and creation as part of a vital art tradition as well as the private drama and psychological tension of human existence

    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

    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
