    The cinema of 'Eloy de la Iglesia : marginaliy and transgression

    No full text
    Le réalisateur espagnol Eloy de la Iglesia (1944-2006) est l’auteur de vingt-deux longs métrages réalisés entre 1966 et 2003. Sa vaste filmographie recouvre une période décisive de l’histoire de l’Espagne contemporaine, avec laquelle elle établit un dialogue constant. Plébiscité par le public, Eloy de la Iglesia s’attira les foudres de la censure qui surveilla de près sa production et l’inimitié d’une grande partie de la critique, y compris progressiste, qui lui reprocha immanquablement son opportunisme, sa démagogie, son penchant immodéré pour la provocation et son mauvais goût flagrant. Notre étude porte sur l’intégralité de la filmographie du réalisateur et met en lumière son extrême cohérence interne autour de deux axes majeurs : la marginalité et la transgression. Cinéaste situé à la périphérie des principaux courants et des tendances esthétiques majoritaires, Eloy de la Iglesia a pu mener à bien une œuvre personnelle et prolifique, à la croisée du cinéma d’auteur et du cinéma populaire, dans laquelle nous voulons voir le projet original d’analyser la société espagnole à partir de ses marges et sous l’angle de la transgression des normes et des valeurs dominantes. Son cinéma antiélitiste et résolument installé dans la culture de masse fait mine d’accepter les règles et le langage du cinéma commercial pour mieux les subvertir de l’intérieur. Il y introduit des sujets tabous et polémiques et développe un discours critique radical sur la réalité contemporaine espagnole.Spanish director Eloy de la Iglesia (1944-2006) is the author of twenty-two feature films made between 1966 and 2003. His vast filmography covers a crucial period in the history of contemporary Spain, with which it is in constant dialogue. Acclaimed by audiences, Eloy de la Iglesia incurred the wrath of the Film Censorship Board (which kept a close watch on his work) and the hostility of many critics, including the most progressive ones, who inevitably rebuked him for opportunism, demagogy, excessive penchant for provocation and blatant bad taste. Our study focuses on his entire filmography and highlights its extreme internal coherence around two main axes: marginality and transgression. Always on the margins of major cinematic movements and aesthetic tendencies, Eloy de la Iglesia managed to develop a personal and prolific work at the crossroads of art-house and popular cinema; an original project to analyse Spanish society from its fringes and through transgression of dominant norms and values. His anti-elitist cinema, deeply rooted in mass culture, pretends to accept the rules and language of commercial cinema to better subvert them from within, by introducing taboo and controversial topics and developing a radical critical discourse on contemporary Spanish reality

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    L’Espagne a mis en place une stratégie de communication longuement réfléchie de promotion de son image, particulièrement en direction des sociétés latino-américaines, où les médias sont à la fois l'expression et l'un des agents de la construction de l’imaginaire géographique espagnol. Parce que l’enjeu que représente la presse dans l’image que souhaite véhiculer un pays a pris une nouvelle forme depuis qu’Internet est devenu un système de communication de masse, notre étude vise à décrire et à analyser les représentations attachées à ce pays dans la version numérique du quotidien mexicain La Crónica de hoy entre 2004 et 2007.Trois lignes directrices organisent ce travail. La première, présente le Mexique et sa presse quotidienne en tant qu’industrie. La seconde, théorique et méthodologique, précise notre champ d’étude, le quotidien La Crónica de hoy, et examine la dynamique des représentations sociales et le processus de construction du discours de presse. La dernière, empirique, est une observation et une analyse d’un corpus d’articles à travers lesquels nous effectuons une lecture et une interprétation des représentations véhiculées par le site de La Crónica de hoy sur l’actualité espagnole.Spain is among the countries that have been developing communication strategies to promote its external image through press and mass media in Latin America civil societies. As Internet has became a mass media, its plays a crucial role in portraying countries images, therefore the basic intent of this research is to explore how Spain is presented in the online version of a Mexican daily newspaper called La Crónica de hoy.

The second part outlines the theoretical and methodological aspects of the subject with an emphasis on La Crónica de hoy website (from 2004 to 2007) and the analysis of newspapers role in defining issues for the public. The final part of the investigation consists of quantitative and qualitative analysis of the articles permitting to profile Spain country image in La Crónica de hoy website

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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
