The Dabraulėnai Manor (today, the Smarhon district in Belarus), only small fragments of which have been preserved until our times, in the 1820s–1830s was one of the more distinct centres of manor culture in historical Lithuania, while the manor park was praised by contemporaries as one of the most noteworthy examples of garden art in the vicinity of Vilnius in that period. Texts and images created in the milieu of the counts Günther allow partially reconstructing the iconographic programme of this park and the symbolic image of a family nest and an idyll of a provincial manor. The relations of the iconography to the cultural contexts and concrete historical circumstances, as well as their symbolical expression are revealed, and the attribution of certain historical images is specified. Referring to historical sources, the author shows that the aesthetics of the park elements was influenced by direct contacts with influential promoters of landscape parks, above all, Izabela Czartoryska, as well as by the publications of Polish and Western authors of the first third of the 19th century, examples of other parks, Adam Günther’s studies at Vilnius University, and artistic practices in the family. The image of the park reflected the general artistic tendencies of Lithuanian parks in the period of Romanticism; on the other hand, while using and interpreting characteristic motifs of Romantic parks an gardens, the subjects that were relevant to the manor owners’ family were symbolically represented. The article is illustrated with drawings of the members of Günther family, lithographs created by the artist Karimierz Bachmatowicz; part of them is published for the first time, attribution is specified, and possible prototypes are discussed
Spaces of the Verkiai manor park in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century

Bandoma identifikuoti pirmines parko erdves, zonas, jų funkcijas ir jungtis, paaiškinti planavimo logiką, stiliaus bruožus pirmuoju Klasicizmo rezidencijos kūrimo laikotarpiu, atsigręžiant į Apšvietos kultūrinį kontekstą ir Europos parkų raidos tendencijas. Išskiriami svarbiausi parko erdvės formavimosi etapai ir plano pokyčiai. Remiantis šaltiniais, patikslinami arba paneigiami kai kurie istoriografijoje įsigalėję klaidingi teiginiai. Reikšminiai žodžiai: Dvaro sodyba; Sodų menas; Planinė-erdvinė kompozicija; Parkai; Verkiai; Ignotas Jokūbas Masalskis; Park; Manor estate; Garden art; Planning-spatial composition; Verkiai; Ignacy Jakub MassalskiThe Verkiai manor park is one of the oldest and most valuable culture and nature monuments in Lithuania having comparatively rich historical sources and constantly receiving much research attention. The residence of Bishop Ignacy Jakub Massalski with a park in Verkiai marked the early period of the school of architecture of Vilnius Neoclassicism, and alongside, the beginning of landscape parks in Lithuania. The manor estate was designed by two leading Vilnius architects, Marcin Knackfuss and Laurynas Gucevičius, and the park was created with direct contribution from prominent specialists from the West, among them Charles-Joseph Lamoral de Ligne, the author of one of the first reviews of European garden art. Although this park is relatively well preserved, a significant part of its past relics was lost in the historical turmoil of the 19th and 20th centuries, and historiography contains quite many gaps that appeared not only because of the lack of sources, but also because of their erroneous reading. For example, an erroneous interpretation of the view of the Verkiai watermill from late 18th century (a drawing by Franciszek Smuglewicz) still persists, which considerably distorts the understanding of the condition of the entire complex in the times of Bishop Massalski. Or, with insufficient regard to the difference of styles and eras, the iconography of the nineteenth-century manor estate is used as a source for the reconstruction of eighteenthcentury symbolic meanings. The formation of the body of the garden and park of the Verkiai residence is analyzed, its primary planning structure is reconstructed, and the relation between the aesthetic and practical function of the garden elements and their symbolic content along with its change is addressed, focusing on the period from 1780 to 1840. The research field includes regional cultural contexts and influences as well as the socio-cultural and natural factors; the surviving traces of the solutions made in the period under discussion, their importance and relation to natural heritage are revealed. Certain statements established in historiography are specified or disproved, and a new interpretation of the sources is given

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
