No full textIl volume contiene contributi che delineano linee innovative di ricerca nel campo della proprietà e della ricchezza in Età moderna. A partire da fonti complesse, in particolare gli Estimi, i contributi si propongono di percorrere nuove vie interpretative: ad esempio riguardo ai processi di attribuzione del valore, o alla concentrazione della ricchezza

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Illegitimate Appropriation or just Punishment ?The Confiscation of Property in ancien régimeCriminal Law and Doctrine
No full textIn ancien régime criminal law, the confiscation of the whole of the property was a punishment for serious crimes, especially for those of a political nature. This was a complex punishment: it was connected to property rights and to being part of a society; it affected inheritance rights of children and spouse, as well as fiscal interests. Late 18th and early 19th century Penal Codes reflected the doctrinal hesitations on the legitimacy of confiscation. Not uncommonly, legislators thought that they could not abandon confiscation, in spite of all the principle declarations against it. In fact, confiscation of the estate seemed to never completely disappear. It has been outlined that it would return, when liberal political systems were in crisis.
Interest in the history of ownership rights is growing and spreading to different disciplines. Historians are turning their attention mainly to the
rise of private and individual ownership as it was codified in 19th-century liberal Europe. In writing this history, however, their perspective has
too often ignored the other side of the coin, namely the restrictions which the sovereign imposed on such rights, allegedly in the interest of the
community.
The papers collected in the present volume suggest that private property is not necessarily the most safeguarded legal model, hence it is not
less vulnerable to violation. They construct a close analysis of the most common forms of abuse of private property on record - expropriation,
seizure, and confiscation - perpetrated by public authorities. They also seek to define the uneasy, often intricate relation between legal and
legitimate. In a perspective of lights and shadows, the role of confiscation and expropriation changes : now seen as powerful instruments of
change, now as enduring factors of conservation in the evolution of private ownership rights
