Jacqueline Barnitz: 40 Years of Publications
No full textJacqueline Barnitz: 40 Years of Publications
Jacqueline Barnitz is responsible for establishing modern Latin American art as an area of concentration
within art history at the University of Texas at Austin, where she has taught now for 25 years. She's a
major reason why UT Austin is known as the best place in the nation for studying modern Latin American
art. A notable record of publication accompanies her career as a distinguished educator. In fact, her
interest in Latin American art goes back to her tenure as an art critic in New York for the periodicals Art
Voices (1964-1965) and Arts Magazine (1964-1975). Additionally, she's been the curator of numerous art
exhibitions and, subsequently, the author of many exhibition catalogs. In 2000 UT Press published her
much-anticipated and seminal book Twentieth-Century Art of Latin America, which quickly became the
textbook on the subject. We present this display of selected publications as a tribute to her outstanding
contributions to the university and to the field of art history.UT Librarie

Hipercrescimento e colapso: Conjeturando cenários da sobrecarga das revistas científicas brasileiras líderes na Ciência da Informação
No full textBrazilian journals in Information Science typically depend on semi-voluntary work, with scarce resources. The inclusion of some of these journals in reputable databases gives them status and attracts more and more submissions, without resource escalability. This article explores this context through a system dynamics model that represents article stocks and flows throughout the editorial process. We run four alternative scenarios, with different quantities of submissions, with or without interventions (closing for new submissions and sharp increase of desk rejections). In these scenarios, a 50% increase in submissions leads to a total evaluation time of about 19 months, regardless of interventions that alleviate the overhead only momentarily. Few overburdened editors support the continuity of the system
As mulheres na ciência brasileira: crescimento, contrastes e um perfil de sucesso
No full textHISTORICAMENTE, a ciência sempre foi vista como uma atividade realizada por homens e foi somente após a segunda metade no século XX que ocorreram mudanças nesse quadro. O presente estudo mostra o crescimento da participação feminina em alguns cursos de graduação da UFRJ (inclusive em cursos tradicionalmente ocupados por homens), nos grupos de pesquisas cadastrados no CNPq, como bolsistas do CNPq e no quadro de docentes da USP. O estudo também mostra que, apesar da maior participação no sistema brasileiro de C&T, as mulheres têm chances menores de sucesso e ascensão na carreira: são menos contempladas com bolsas de produtividade do CNPq, estão sub-representadas nos cargos administrativos da UFRJ e entre os acadêmicos da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Jacqueline Risset. Scritture dell’istante
No full text“Born on 25th May 1936. Two specific desires: not to become an adult, and to write”. Jacqueline Risset (1936-2014) was a translator from French (Ponge, Sollers, the Tel Quel poets) and Italian (Dante, Machiavelli, Balestrini), as well as a well-known scholar for her work on Scève, Proust and Bataille. The aim of this volume is to analyse Risset’s poetic work, from the beginnings with textual writing in the experimentalism of Tel Quel, through a trajectory that, crossing Dante and Stilnovism through the translation of the Divine Comedy, led the author to the elaboration of a poetics centred on “privileged instants” that open “to the elsewhere”
