    Lin Zhao, Combattante de la Liberté

    International audienceLa courte vie de Lin Zhao (1931 ou 1932-1968) pourrait s’écrire en lettres rouges : rouge pour cette Chine maoïste dont elle accompagna la naissance ; rouge du communisme qu’elle rejoignit alors et dont elle rêva qu’il transforme son pays ; rouge, enfin, comme ce sang, le sien, avec lequel elle dut parfois écrire textes et poèmes du fond de la prison de Shanghai où elle fut détenue de 1960 à sa mort, en 1968.Son histoire s’inscrit dans celle de cette génération d’intellectuels qui crurent qu’une place leur serait faite dans la société nouvelle, convaincus qu’ils pourraient continuer à occuper leur fonction de conseiller ou critique du gouvernant. Il n’en fut rien. Et si la vie de Lin Zhao nous frappe par sa force tragique et d’exemplarité combien de Chinois ont disparu depuis l’avènement de la Chine communiste ? , elle acquiert désormais une dimension autre, la jeune femme au visage d’ange ayant été élevée au rang d’icône de la dissidence au tournant des années 2000.La découverte du documentaire sur Lin Zhao du réalisateur chinois Hu Jie allait bouleverser Anne Kerlan et l’entraîner dans une enquête de longue haleine. Un livre fort et poignant sur une héroïne ambiguë, sur fond d’un matériau inédit

    La mémoire de Lin Zhao 林昭, cette « combattante de la liberté » exécutée à Shanghai le 29 avril 1968, n’aurait jamais dû survivre à l’engloutissement auquel le régime chinois l’avait condamnée. Comme le rappelle d’emblée l’auteure, ce qui attend les victimes des mouvements maoïstes, c’est normalement « le silence, l’oubli, la destruction des preuves : cette autre forme de violence » (p. 9). Heureusement, il y a parfois des grains de sable dans cette machine à broyer la mémoire, et grâce à eux,..

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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
