Ferrovie, zona industriale di Basso Acquar, Magazzini Generali: tre volti del progresso della prima industrializzazione a Verona
No full textNell'anbito di un volume che ricostruisce la storia di una delle più importanti realtà economiche del territorio veronese nel secondo dopoguerra: il Consorzio ZAI, promotore dell'industrializzazione della città e del Quadrante Europa, primo interporto italiano e tra i più rilevanti in Europa. Il saggio ripercorre tre volti del cambiamento economico negli ambiti dell'innovazione e della tecnologia di Verona tra la metà dell''800 e la seconda guerra mondiale. Sono stati analizzati casi riguardanti le infrastrutture, la prima industrializzazione e il ruolo focale della logistica
Tra Arslan e Longhi. La Lombardia di Maria Luisa Ferrari/ Between Arslan and Longhi. The Lombardy of Maria Luisa Ferrari
No full textSe negli ultimi anni si è assistito a una generale riscoperta delle donne artiste, non altrettanto è avvenuto per le storiche dell’arte italiane che hanno percorso la vicenda intellettuale del Novecento. In occasione di questo convegno ho voluto ricordare la figura di Maria Luisa Ferrari, nata a Cremona nel 1929. Di lei manca persino una voce nello sconfinato mondo di internet che ne tramandi la biografia e gli importanti studi, a partire dalla tesi di laurea, discussa a Pavia con Edoardo Arslan nel 1954, su Giovan Pietro da Cemmo, edita a Milano due anni dopo. Per l’occasione pubblico alcuni passaggi inediti della corrispondenza con il suo primo maestro, da cui emergono con evidenza i giochi di forza e le “guerre di religione” tra le varie scuole di storici dell’arte. Il mio intervento è dedicato alle vicende umane e professionali della studiosa e all’importanza fondamentale, per quegli anni e in prospettiva futura, del suo lavoro. Even though in the last few years we have witnessed a general rediscovery of female artists, the same has not happened for female Italian art historians whom have contributed in the art history making of the XX century. On the occasion of this conference I meant to remember Maria Luisa Ferrari, born in Cremona in 1929. No mention of her even in the endless internet world, no page passing on her biography and most important studies, starting from her dissertation thesis, discussed in Pavia with Edoardo Arslan in 1954, on the painter Giovan Pietro da Cemmo, published in Milan two years later. I hereby present some unpublished excerpts part of the correspondence with her first mentor, from which power games and “religion wars” among different art history schools of thought strongly emerge. My paper is dedicated to the human and professional events of the scholar and to the fundamental importance of her work for the period and in future perspective.

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
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
