TASAWUF SUNNI ALA SIRHINDI: “KAWIN PAKSA” MONISME DAN TEOLOGI ASY’ARIYAH
Get PDFThe term monism or wahdah al-wujūd has a long story in Islamic Mysticism or Sufism. It is such that is considered to be the soul of Sufism, an sich. It means that without wahdah al-wujūd, there would be no further discussion on Islamic Mysticism. Besides, the theory of wahdah al-wujūd is rooted in Shi’ite Islam, yet never found in the Theology of Ash’arian or any other Sunni tradition. It is very important to have an awareness of what the author has termed ‘failed cloning’ between monism in Shi’ite and dualism in Sunni traditions established by Sirhindi. This is an attempt to uncover the weakness and/or weaknesses of Sirhindi’s methodology, that criticized wahdah al-wujūd and his subsequent misunderstanding of it. Moreover, Sirhindi seemed somewhat confused over the disciplines of mysticism, philosophy, theology and jurisprudence in his arguments and accordingly his mystical construction. To criticize wahdah al-wujūd without having a basic understanding of Ibn ‘Arabi’s works is a fault. Moreover, the construction of mystical dimension of wahdah al-wujūd of Ibn ‘Arabi which had staunchly strengthened and defended by Shadruddin Shirazi (Mulla Sadra) is very difficult to break through by anyone who does not have basic knowledge of either. Thus, Sirhindi should have learned from him (Mulla Sadra) before he criticized Ibn ‘Arabi and his concept wahdah al-wujū
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

Ia dianggap menjadi jiwa sufisme, an sich, yang berarti bahwa tanpa wahdah al-wujūd, tak akan ada diskusi lebih lanjut mengenai Mistisisme Islam. Selain itu, teori yang berakar dalam tradisi syiah islam, belum pernah ditemukan dalam teologi Asy’ariyah atau dalam tradisi sunni lainnya. Penting untuk memiliki kesadaran terhadap apa yang penulis sebut sebagai “gagal kloning” antara monisme dalam syiah dan dualisme dalam tradisi sunni Sirhindi. Artikel ini berupaya untuk mengungkap kelemahan dan /atau kelemahan dari metodologi Sirhindi yang mengkritik wahdah al-wujūd dan kesalahpahamannya terhadap konsep ini. Terlebih, dalam konstruksi penjelasan mistisisnya, Sirhindi tampak bingung atas disiplin pengetahuan mistisisme, filsafat, teologi dan fiqh. Mengkritik wahdah al-wujūd tanpa memiliki pemahaman dasar terhadap karya Ibn ‘Arabi akan cacat. Terlebih lagi, konstruksi dimensi mistis yang diperkuat oleh Mulla Sadra ini akan sulit diterobos oleh siapapun yang tidak mempunyai pengetahuan dasar tentangnya. Jadi, Sirhindi seharusnya belajar dari Mulla Sadra sebelum mengkritik Ibn ‘Arabi dan konsep wahdah al-wujūd.
