Hvordan forvalter Norges største novelleforfatter novellen som sjanger? En analyse av Kjell Askildsens novelle Carl Lange
No full textNovellen som sjanger har blitt utsatt for en del kritikk gjennom historiens løp, i nyere tid har det blitt argumentert for at sjangeren er utdatert. Denne oppgaven ser på hvordan Kjell Askildsen forvalter novellen som sjanger, i en av sine noveller; Carl Lange. Den metodiske fremgangsmåten er hentet fra Annemette Hejlsteds analyseskjema, som er utviklet med den hensikt å kunne si noe om en forfatters forvaltning av novellesjangeren i et verk. Resultatene av analysen viser at Askildsen i stor grad benytter seg av kjente sjangertrekk, både fra eldre og nyere novelleteori. Jeg konkluderer med at Askildsen forvalter novellesjangeren med omhu og flid.The genre short story has been in the center of quite alot of critizism through out history, in modern time some are even arguing for it being utdated. This theisis is exploring how Kjell Askildsen manages the short story as a genre, in one of his short stories; Carl Lange. The methodical framework is based on Annemette Hejlsteds analysis form, whitch is developed with the intent to be able to recognize how an author is managing the short story genre, in a written work. The result for the analysis shows that Askildsen is using a alot of well known features for the short story, old as well as new. I'm concluding that Askildsen manages the short story genre with a lot of thought and diligence

Opplevd og fremstilt i Amerika: En undersøkelse av Knut Hamsuns litteraturgeografiske fremstillinger i "Mark Twain", "Fra Amerika" og "Fra en indianerleir"
No full textI Knut Hamsuns bibliografi har Amerika nærmest fungert som et symbol på hans kritikk av moderniteten og farene ved kapitalismen. I tyveårene sine var Hamsun i Amerika i to perioder, og han skrev hjem til norske aviser om Amerika. I denne oppgaven har jeg undersøkt hva Hamsun gjorde mens han var i Amerika, og hvilke geografiske fremstillinger han gjorde av Amerika mens han var der. Jeg undersøker også hvilke forestillinger om Amerika som fantes i Norge på 1800-tallet. På denne måten kan jeg si noe om hvordan Hamsun posisjonerte sine fremstillinger i forhold til de som var rådene i den norske befolkningen. Med dette perspektivet undersøker jeg hvilke geografiske fremstillinger Hamsun gjør av Amerika mellom 1882 og 1888.
For å undersøke hvilke geografiske fremstillinger Hamsun gjør av Amerika har jeg lest tre tekster Hamsun skrev mens han var i Amerika, i lys av litteraturgeografiske teorier. Her har jeg benyttet meg av Heri Lefebvres teori om sosiale rom og Tim Cresswells teorier om meningsfulle steder. Tekstene jeg undersøkt er: «Fra Amerika» (1885), «Mark Twain» (1885) og «Fra en indianerleir» (1885), disse tekstene danner da grunnlaget for mitt datamateriale.
Gjennom mine litteraturgeografiske lesninger av disse tre tekstene finner jeg at Hamsun fremstiller Amerika som et sted som produserer romlige praksiser som leder amerikanerne vekk fra sin menneskelighet og natur, og undergraver deres moral. Hamsuns Amerika preges av en rå kapitalisme som truer med å ødelegge de demokratiske institusjonene i landet. Fremstillingene hans gir et inntrykk av at det utkjempes en kamp mellom det tradisjonelle og det moderne, og i Hamsuns fremstilling av Amerika taper det tradisjonelle. På denne måten fremstiller Hamsun Amerika som et sted som fører mennesket inn i en degenerende prosess hvor mennesket mister kontakten med sin egen naturIn Knut Hamsun's bibliography, America has mostly functioned as a symbol of his critique of modernity and the dangers of capitalism. Hamsun spent two periods in America during his twenties, where he wrote back to Norwegian newspapers about America. In this thesis I have investigated, through his writings of his time in America, what Hamsun did and the geographical representations his stories created. I contrast these representations with the conceptions of America prevailing among the Norwegian population in the 19th century. I also explore the conceptions of America that existed in Norway in the 19th century. In this way, I discuss how Hamsun positioned his representations in relation to those prevailing among the Norwegian population at that time. With this perspective, I examine the geographical representations Hamsun makes of America between 1882 and 1888.
To investigate the geographical representations Hamsun makes of America, I have read three texts Hamsun wrote while he was in America, in light of geographical literary theories. Here, I have utilized Henri Lefebvre’s theory of social spaces and Tim Cresswell's theories on meaningful places. The texts I have examined are: "Fra Amerika" (1885), "Mark Twain" (1885), and "Fra en indianerleir" (1885), these texts form the basis of my data.
Through my geographical literary readings of these three texts, I have found that Hamsun portrays America as a place that produces spatial practices that lead Americans away from their humanity and nature, and undermine their morality. The place is characterized by raw capitalism that threatens to destroy the democratic institutions in the country. His representations convey a struggle between the traditional and the modern, and in Hamsun’s portrayal of America, the traditional loses. In this way, Hamsun depicts America as a place that leads humanity into a degenerative process where people lose contact with their own natur
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
No full textWe 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
