Il preambolo di Venere. Delicta carnis e bacio violento nella scienza giuridica dell’età moderna
During Modern Age, women’s honor is represented as an accessory to the male’s one. The issue is addressed from the point of view of the delicta carnis, and in particular of the violent kiss. This was assimilated to rape although over time there is a mitigation of the ordinary punishment and a remodeling of the possibility of using the kiss as a marriage strategy
Il diritto d’asilo nelle chiese in età moderna. Alcune riflessioni sull’immunitas e il privilegium
Asylum in sacred places has ancient origins. I will analyze, in addition to the main features of this right, the consequences of asylum on the penalty, and on criminals, to underline the effects of mitigation of the penalty and removal of the criminal from the poena sanguinis. In this sense, asylum is certainly a form of protection, of protection of the individual. It is not a right of the person, but protects it from negative consequences.
The right of asylum, in the treatises of the Modern Age, is a right of the place that extends to people: having existed for a long time, the institute acquired at this time a greater value and became an object of great interest for canonists, but especially for the so-called criminalists, in light of the conflicts of jurisdiction between secular and ecclesiastical powers. After the fragmentation of the religious unity of the republica christiana, only apparently it is clearly reduced, to continue to survive to varying degrees even in the reformed churches and with double rites
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
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
