The Entries on Birds in Liu Xun’s Lingbiao lu yi
This article presents an annotated translation of the section on birds in Liu Xun’s Lingbiao lu yi (late 9th century). The author describes eleven birds of the Lingbiao region (roughly Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan) in short notes that mix real and fictitious elements. This region, always considered dangerous and poorly civilized, was certainly not among the favorite locations of China’s civil servants. Although Liu Xun spent several years in the far South, very little is known about his life. But one can imagine that he felt unhappy in these lands, while at the same time admiring some of its unique features. That also applies to the entries on birds, especially on owls, in his text. The article is an attempt at “deciphering” these parts.Ce travail présente une traduction annotée de la section consacrée aux oiseaux dans l’ouvrage Lingbiao lu yi de Liu Xun (fin du IXe siècle). L’auteur choisit onze oiseaux de la région Lingbiao (correspondant à peu près au Guangdong, au Guangxi et à Hainan), et leur dédia des notes où les éléments réels et fantastiques paraissent entremêlés. Cette région, considérée comme peu civilisée et dangereuse, n’était pas un lieu où l’on souhaitait être envoyé comme fonctionnaire d’État. Liu Xun y servit pendant plusieurs années, mais on sait peu de choses de sa vie. On peut toutefois imaginer qu’il a été malheureux en ces terres lointaines, tout en étant admiratif de certaines de leurs particularités. Cela s’applique aussi aux descriptions des oiseaux dans son texte, notamment celles des hiboux. L’article est une tentative de « déchiffrer » ces passages.Bocci Chiara, Ptak Roderich.

Nilai-Nilai Konfusius pada Tokoh Lu Yi 陆译 dalam Drama Under the Power(锦衣之下)
This research elucidates the drama Under the Power (锦衣之下Jǐnyī zhīxià) (2019), which narrates the journey of the main character Lu Yi (陆译) as an Embroidered-Uniform Guard (锦衣卫Jǐnyīwèi) of the Ming Dynasty (明朝Míng cháo) officiated with eradicating crime in the empire court. In every behavior, Lu Yi always shows his stand that adheres to the Confucian values, namely the Five Cardinal Virtues (五常Wǔ cháng) and the Eight Virtues (八德Bā dé). This research fathoms how far Confucius moral values are reflected in Lu Yi himself. Using the descriptive method and qualitative approach, the writer conducts a literature review on Confucius values and relates them to Lu Yi's character. From the research conducted, it is known that Lu Yi's character is indeed a notice enforcer who upholds the values of Confucius in himself, especially the value of defending truth and justice (义Yì). This drama has aired on Mango TV and iQiyi video platforms since December 28, 2019Keywords - Confucian values; Five Cardinal Virtues; Eight Virtues; Moral values; Drama; Television drama; Under the Powe

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
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
