Introduction
Full text linkThis introduction suggests regarding
‘religion’ as a cultural product. The relationship between religion and memory can be investigated through the
practice of oath-taking, a particularly sophisticated social tool in ancient Greece. It concerns, in fact, both the status of social trust and problematic intercourses between gods and human beings, who fi nd in oath a regulated and effective space of interrelation
Franz Cumont, Les mystères de Mithra
No full textLes Mystères de Mithra reproduisent les conclusions des Textes et Monuments figurés relatifs aux Mystères de Mithra (1894-1899), l'œuvre magistrale dans laquelle Franz Cumont a rassemblé le corpus entier des témoignages mithriaques (textes, inscriptions, monnaies, gemmes, reliefs). Dans ces conclusions – dont est republiée ici la troisième édition parue à Bruxelles en 1913 –,Cumont soutient la thèse de la continuité entre les conceptions et rites diffusés par les mages mazdéens et le culte de Mithra dans l’Empire romain. Cette nouvelle édition est enrichie par une introduction historiographique et par la publication d'un écrit inédit, annoté par Th. Mommsen, dans lequel Cumont expose ses premières réflexions sur la diffusion du culte de Mithra en Occident. Elle propose en outre les notes manuscrites conservées dans l’exemplaire personnel de Cumont des Textes et Monuments figurés relatifs aux Mystères de Mithra, déposé à l'Academia Belgica de Rome. Elle offre enfin un large panorama sur plus d'un siècle d'études mithriaques

Memory and religious experience in the Greco-Roman world
No full textThe concepts of memory and experience have stimulated interest in a wide range of recent cultural studies. In the history of scholarship on religion in Mediterranean antiquity, scholars have focused on the emotional dimension of both terms by employing the concepts of ‚Christianity‘ and its derivative, ‚oriental religion‘. Only recently analyses in this field started focusing on interaction and individual experience. Research initiatives at Palermo and Erfurt have taken up this lead and brought together a group of scholars testing such approaches for new perspectives on the history of religion in the Greek and Roman world. This volume reviews the cognitive and emotional dimensions of such experiences in their diverse local, social, and ritual contexts. Memory likewise opens a window onto the interaction of individual and society. Contributions address the individual processes of memorialization and remembrance. They analyse the collective evocation of memories and their shaping of individual memory
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
