    The Body between Life and Death: Berengario da Carpi and the Anatomical Image of the Sixteenth Century.

    Full text link
    Jacopo Berengario da Carpi is among the most famous anatomists of the so-called “Pre-Vesalian” era. His rise to fame tells the tale of a careful cultivation of powerful patrons accompanied by a lifelong curiosity surrounding the inner workings of the human body. As a protagonist of the ‘anatomical Renaissance’ that unfolded over the course of the sixteenth century, Berengario advocated for the primacy of touch and sight in medical education and clinical practice as described extensively in his printed works. It is impossible to understand the novelty of sixteenth-century anatomy in any other way than looking at the diversity of visual, cultural, and intellectual stimuli that leant themselves to a new, varied, dynamic, and innovative approach to the human body. Berengario’s figure and work stand precisely at the crossroads of the history of medicine, the history of art, and a visual and material history of death and religious ritual. This essay looks at Berengario’s life to understand the social, po-litical, cultural, and visual contexts of Renaissance anatomy. It is precisely for these reasons that this figure serves as an important case study for understanding the med-ical humanities

    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
