Astrid Lindgren: cent'anni di storie ed emozioni.
Nell'intervento (Astrid Lindgren: cent'anni di storie ed emozioni) si evidenziano le caratteristiche di contenuto e di scrittura che hanno fatto della scrittrice svedese Astrid Lindgren un'innovatrice della letteratura per l'infanzia e l'adolescenza. Ed in questa sua originalità sta il segreto della sua "attualità", cioé del suo essere ancora amata dai bambini e dai ragazzi non solo come autrice di Pippi Calzelunghe, ma anche di altri romanzi veramente unici, inimitabili e senza tempo
Rileggendo Astrid Lindgren. Percorsi critici e itinerari interpretativi.
Nel volume i saggi della curatrice Silvia BLEZZA Picherle, per un totale di 113 PAGINE, sono QUATTRO.
Il volume, che germoglia dal fertile terreno del Convegno Nazionale su Astrid Lindgren tenutosi a Verona presso la Facoltà di Scienze della Formazione il 24 e il 25 marzo 2007, in occasione del centenario dalla nascita della scrittrice, non si configura come un'opera commemorativa, bensì come un percorso interpretativo polifonico, il PRIMO in Italia, sull'opera dell'autrice svedese. Gli studiosi, molti dei quali non presenti al convegno, hanno inteso evidenziare gli elementi di contenuto e di stile che connotano l'opera della scrittrice e danno ragione della sua attualità.
Con un saggio introduttivo di A. Lindgren (Mai Violenza!) inedito in Italia.
Argomenti affrontati: attualità di A. Lindgren; il rapporto tra tradizione e innovazione; l'originale rappresentazione dei personaggi bambini e adulti; le grandi tematiche e i valori; la voce della natura; gli illustratori di A. Lindgren; Pippi Calzelunghe icona dell'immaginario e il problema del gender; dai fanciulli infelici alle bambine libere; Rasmus e altri piccoli vagabondi; bambini e bambine, monelli e monelle; i temi dell'ascesa e della discesa ne I Fratelli Cuordileone; la significatività di Vacanze all'Isola dei Gabbiani; i "gialli" scritti da A. Lindgren; Donatella Ziliotto promotrice in Italia di A. Lindgren; il punto di vista di un editor italiano e dell'editore tedesco; A. Lindgren e il teatro; le opere della Lindgren in versione cinematografica

Letter from W[aldemar ?] Lindgren to David S. Jordan, 1897 Feb 25.
-DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR--UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY-Washington, D. C. Feb. 25,1897.Professor. David S. Jordan,Palo Alto, California.Dear Sir:-Your letter of December 18th, came duly to hand. On January 15th. the Forestry Commission, which then held a meeting in this building, called me before them. I explained the character of the forest areas of the high Sierras, and recommended that if the whole area on the Central Pacific road was not reserved that two smaller sections of forest might be reserved at the head waters of the middle fork of the American River and at the head waters of the Cosmunes River. The Commission objected to extending the reservation to the line of the Central Pacific Railroad because, first, the country is to a considerable extent settled up by cattlemen and sheepmen who have entered the land; second, because the railroad grant would considerably interfere with the successful reservation, and third, because the value of the forest for practical purposes is slight, the timber as a rule being stunted and scarce.The other alternative, that is the reservation of the smaller areas proposed, the Commission concluded to take no action upon at this time. As it now stands, the additional forest reserve, called by the Commission the Stanislaus Forest Reserve , extends on both sides of the main range, beginning at a point 35 miles south of Lake Tahoe, and extending from there south to the northern border of the Yosemite National Park. As to the vicinity of Gilmore\u27s Springs, the Commission did not feel like interfering, as the question according to them seemed to involve a contest between two private persons.It is to be hoped that reservations may at a future time be made further north, although it is not to be denied that the reasons above referred to would interfere considerably. The Commission felt that they had gone very far in reserving such a very large area as has been done, and did not wish to incur too much antagonism by extending the areas beyond a reasonable amount. As it is, the proclamation of the President has produced a strong opposition among the western congressmen. I have seen Senator Perkins and explained the matter to him, but am afraid that as the matter now stands nothing more can be done for the present.Very respectfully,(signed) W. Lindgren,COPYU. s.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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
Letter from W[aldemar ?] Lindgren to George C. Perkins, 1897 Feb 25.
-DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR--UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY-WASHINGTON , D. C. Feb. 26, 1897.Hon. George C. Perkins,U. S. Senate, Washington, D. C.Dear Sir:-In a letter of December 18th. 1896, Prof. David S. Jordan of the Stanford University, requested me to call upon you and consult about the matter of the forest reservation of the high Sierras. The Sierra Club and many other people in California had asked him to take the matter before the Forestry Commission and before Secretary Francis. Prof. Jordan wrote to me because my official duties as a geologist have made me familiar with that special section of California to which he refers. At the meeting of the Forestry Commission last January, I appeared before them upon their request and explained the economic value of the areas which it was proposed to reserve.The Commission did not agree with Prof. Jordan as to the areas which should be placed in the reservation, and only reserved a strip of land embracing both sides of the summit of the Sierra Nevada extending from the northern line of the Yosemite National Park for 35 miles northward. The distance from the northern line of the newest reservation to the southern end of Lake Tahoe is about 35 miles. The objection of the Commission to extend the reservation further northward was that the range in the vicinity of Lake Tahoe is comparatively largely taken up by cattlemen and sheepmen which go to their accustomed ranges every year. Further, that the reservation of this area would have no practical value as the forests for a considerable distance south of the railroad has been taken up, and that, moreover, the old sections belong to the railroad. Lastly, the forest in the high mountains of this vicinity is very scant, and has little economic value. I proposed two smaller reservations at the head waters of the American and of the Cosmunes rivers, but the Commission did not find it practicable to add these small areas to the other sections reserved.Very respectfully,(signed) W. Lindgren.COPYU.S. Geologist.06187https://scholarlycommons.pacific.edu/jmcl/25414/thumbnail.jp
