Knight, William W., Letter to Mary Knight. June 3, 1863
Full text linkKnight, William W., Letter to Mary Knight. June 3, 1863. William Knight Civil War Letters, Box 1, Folder 3, Valdosta State University Archives and Special Collections. 1 pdf document and scans, 4 pages. Includes transcript.Dated June 3, 1863, from a Camp Near Yazoo City, Mississippi, this letter by W. W. Knight to his wife Mary provides vivid insights into their conditions. The author praises the picturesque campsite by a creek with clear limestone water. W. W. Knight conveys their location, south of Yazoo City and around 50 miles from Vicksburg, and describes the challenging recent march, marked by broken terrain, hot weather, and severe water scarcity that caused some men to faint. He discusses the ongoing campaign around Vicksburg, detailing the presence of both Confederate and Union forces. Knight mentions sickness among the men, including fever and diarrhea, and provides updates on Jonathan's and other soldiers' health. He describes the absence of tents, the scarcity of cooking resources, and the difficulties of finding and using water sources during the march. W. W. Knight also reflects on the character of some soldiers and the farming practices of the area. The author expresses gratitude for receiving Mary's letters, reassures her about their finances, and ends with a promise to write whenever possible
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
