La nazione dipinta. Storia di una famiglia tra Mazzini e Garibaldi
No full textL’esposizione, che si inserisce nel quadro delle manifestazioni coordinate dal Comitato per le celebrazioni del secondo centenario della nascita di Garibaldi, su iniziativa del Ministero per i beni e le attività culturali e sotto l’alto patronato del Presidente della Repubblica, è organizzata dal Centro Internazionale d’Arte e di Cultura di Palazzo Te e promossa dal Comune di Mantova e dall’Istituto mantovano di storia contemporanea. Oltre sessanta opere fra dipinti, sculture, fotografie, documenti e libri - provenienti da musei, gallerie e collezioni private italiane - sono distribuite nelle dieci sezioni del percorso e concorrono a illustrare i grandi temi della formazione della nazione: l’intreccio tra amor di patria e amore romantico, le passioni del Quarantotto, le cospirazioni mazziniane, la partecipazione delle donne tra patriottismo ed emancipazionismo, l’epopea garibaldina, la scienza positivista e la scoperta, dopo l’unità politica, di un’Italia reale di contadini poveri, di matti, di bambini analfabeti

Measurement of refractive index profile of planar waveguides by using a double Lloyd's interferometer
No full textWe present a nondestructive experimental method to measure monotonically varying refractive-index profiles of planar waveguides. The technique is a modification of the Lloyd’s mirage setup proposed by Allman et al. [Appl. Opt. 33, 1806 (1994)] in order to have a reference phase distribution for the interference pattern. The theoretical calculations have been implemented to account for multiple reflections inside the sample. An application of the method to ion-exchanged glass waveguides is reported

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
