Marginal People and New Regime:The Making of Fujian Lan Li Family during Early Qing Dynasty
No full text 本文處理的是明清易代與地方社會之間的關係，包括東南海疆如何整編進王朝國家的治理秩序，以及政治動盪下地方家族的建構。透過福建漳浦藍理家族的個案，有助於我們重新理解明末清初中國東南民間社會中的國家制度，還有地方人群生存的集體策略。 在研究方法與材料上，除了傳世文獻的解讀，本文更著重於實地的田野調查。田野考察不僅能夠蒐集到尚未出版的地方性材料，例如族譜、碑刻、文集等，我們同時強調在田野中閱讀文獻。透過親臨歷史現場與接觸人群，感受當地的物質環境與人文風俗，能夠幫助我們將文獻敘述置於真實具體的空間中反覆咀嚼、思索，從而體會更貼近地方脈絡的歷史解釋。 本文的研究發現：首先，明中葉以來漳浦沿海的寇亂，加劇破壞王朝對地方社會的治理秩序，此時「防倭」成為合法化民間築堡自衛的官方性話語。實際上，沿海地方築堡軍事化的背後，還有地方人群之間資源競奪以及內部矛盾等衝突因素。這個背景為沿海地方人群，在清政權的東南征服過程中，提供尋求合作的生存籌碼。其次，在清廷、鄭成功對峙期間，清廷積極實施的招撫政策，一方面成為地方民眾詐降來歸的可乘之機，一方面也達到收編地方武裝群體的實質效果。藍理及其族人在招撫政策下投身清廷水師，並藉由建立軍功後的議敘制度，奠定其家族在漳浦地方的根本基礎。第三，配合清初福建「糧戶歸宗」的稅制改革，藍理重修祖祠種玉堂，以建立制度化的宗族組織，從而與地方上長期競爭的橫口王氏相抗衡。最後，藍鼎元及藍姓族人透過族譜、文集的層層書寫，重新形塑出以種玉堂為象徵符號的集體認同，同時擴大藍氏族人的群體範圍。這樣的文本建構策略一直沿用至當代，並納入少數民族畲族的族群識別元素。 This thesis explores the relationship between Ming-Qing transition and local societies, including the incorporation of southeastern coast of China into the ruling order of Qing dynasty and the making of local lineage organization during political turmoil. The case study of the Lan Li family in Zhangpu, Fujian contributes to our new understanding of the operation of state institutions and local peoples’ survival strategies in southeastern coast of China during the Ming-Qing transition period. In terms of methodology and materials, in addition to the interpretation of elite literature, the thesis focuses more on field research. Through fieldwork, not only can we collect unpublished local materials, such as genealogy, stone inscriptions and literati collections, we can also reconsider the historical significance of these materials in the field. The findings of the thesis are as follows. First, the pirate raids along the Zhangpu coasts since mid-Ming gravely undermined Ming’s rule in local societies, and at this time, “defense against pirates” became an official statement that hastened people’s building fortifications for self-defense. In fact, behind the fortification and militarization in this area, there were also the conflicting factors such as resource competitions and internal contradictions among local peoples. The background was that peoples along the coasts offered their military force as bargaining chips for survival to seek cooperation with the Qing Regime as Qing conquered southeastern coast of China. Second, during the confrontation between Qing and Koxinga, the Qing Regime actively implemented the policy of pacification, which on the one hand became a good incentive for local peoples to collaborate and on the other hand achieved the actual effects of enlisting local armed groups. Lan Li and his co-interest groups joined the Qing navy under the policy of pacification, and with the awarding institutions for their military feats, they laid the very foundation of their pseudo-family in Zhangpu. Third, in accordance with the tax reform of “allocating tax households to clans” in Fujian in early Qing, Lan Li renovated the ancestral hall, “Jade-growing Hall,” to establish an institutionalized lineage organization so as to compete with their long-term local competitor: the Wang family in Hengko. Finally, through layers of genealogy and literary works, Lan Dingyuan and his “clansmen” fabricated a collective identity with Jade-growing Hall as its symbol and enlarged the definition of Lan clan. Such discourse of textual construction has been practiced till present day and has incorporated the ethnic identification of the minority She people
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
