Os quadrinhos e a vida: o problema da qualidade literária ao final dos 1970
Full text linkExistem dois modos relativos de pensar a literatura e a história em quadrinhos. No finaldos 1970, na Argentina, nos EUA e na França, três episódios, sem conexão direta, redefinem a históriadessa relação. Trata-se da suposta qualidade literária conquistada pelas HQs. Contudo, o que estesacontecimentos mostram é o jogo de forças por trás de uma aparente maturidade natural. Assim, cabeinvestigar, para além dos limites entre quadrinhos e literatura, a falta de vitalidade do próprio limite
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
Os quadrinhos são outros, ou Como a HQ moderna se origina e diferencia no quadro histórico de 1968.
No full textIn the 1960s, a difference insistes itself in the comics world. The tensions with the art world; the explosion of underground comix and alternative manga; the defense of the auteur comics and oriented towards the mature audiences; the abundance of satirical magazines and the emergence of erotic and luxurious albums; the run-in of the intelligentsia with the comics, etc. In 1968, these events seem to produce a historical panel of more defined outlines, allowing contemporary comic theory to draw the line of separation that originates the modern comics. However, it is radically questionable what difference the modern could frame. To do so, it will take an anachronistic approach to history, operating a conceptual investigation from the very edge of the concept. With the help of other appropriate writings of the period by authors like Theodor Adorno and Jacques Derrida, it is expected to trace how the difference of the comics is split and decided.Na década de 1960, uma diferença se insiste no mundo dos quadrinhos. As tensões com o mundo da arte; a explosão dos quadrinhos undergrounds e dos mangás alternativos; a defesa da HQ autoral e voltada para o público adulto; a profusão das revistas satíricas e o surgimento dos álbuns eróticos e luxuosos; o encontro da intelectualidade com as histórias em quadrinhos etc. Esses acontecimentos parecem produzir um quadro histórico de contornos mais definidos em 1968, possibilitando à teoria dos quadrinhos contemporânea desenhar a linha de separação que origina a HQ moderna. Porém, cabe questionar radicalmente que diferença é essa que o moderno poderia enquadrar. Para tanto, calhará uma abordagem anacrônica da história, operando uma investigação conceitual a partir do próprio limite do conceito. Com ajuda de outros escritos oportunos do período por autores como Theodor Adorno e Jacques Derrida, espera-se tracejar como a diferença dos quadrinhos é cindida e decidida
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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 linkWe 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 linkWe 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
