    Kekuatan Komik; Sejarah, Bentuk dan Kebudayaan

    Perkembangan komik Indonesia yang terbaru adalah maraknya penerbitan buku komik dalam bentuk majalah yang berisi kumpulan komik-komik pendek. Komik-komik pendek yang bersambung ini, jika dirasa mendapat pembaca yang sesuai harapan penerbit, kemudian akan dirangkai dan dicetak sebagai buku tunggal. Pola kompilasi atau majalah memang marak juga pada era komik Indie pertengahan tahun 1990-an, namun paska tahun 2015, kompilasi komik dapat dilihat sebagai upaya untuk menguji pasar pembaca. Pola ini sangat dekat dengan pola penerbitan komik di Jepang, salah satu kiblat komikus Indonesia. Pola kompilasi ini juga dapat ditemukan pada penerbitan komik di Amerika tahun 1940-an yang dikenal awalnya sebagai pulp magazine atau majalah berharga murah yang isinya didominasi oleh komik strip. Komik strip yang dikumpulkan dan dicetak ulang menjadi buku, kemudian menginspirasi penerbit untuk berkesperimen membuat satu buku baru yang berisi komik-komik baru. Pasar dan pembaca mau tidak mau menjadi pemicu untuk hadirnya eksperimentasi tersebut, selain dorongan ekspresi dari pengarang komik. Perjalanan format komik seperti ini, sejarah dan bentuknya, tidak akan diketahui banyak orang, bahkan penggemar komik sekalipun, jika tidak ada kajian atau laporan tertulis yang lengkap mengenai hal tersebut. Belum lagi menyangkut budaya penggemar, hingga potensi yang dipunyai komik dalam menyampaikan beragam kisah, alih-alih hanya menceritakan tentang superhero atau kisah-kisah lucu. Buku karya Randy Duncan dan Matthew J. Smith berjudul The Power Of Comics; History, Form, and Culture yang terbit tahun 2009, dirasa cukup lengkap dalam merangkum perjalanan sejarah, perkembangan bentuk, dan keterkaitan komik dalam lingkungan sosial. Meskipun berfokus pada komik Amerika pada pembahasan sejarah, lebih jauh buku ini juga menampilkan fenomena global komik, mulai Eropa hingga Asia. Termasuk pula isu-isu sosial dan yang lebih penting adalah mengenai kekuatan komik; kemampuan campuran unsur piktorial dan linguistik dalam mendongeng. Alasan itulah yang menggerakkan hati penerjemah untuk menerjemahkan buku ini ke dalam Bahasa Indonesia, sehingga bisa dipahami dengan lebih baik oleh lebih banyak lagi pembaca komik Indonesia, khususnya mahasiswa dan akademisi yang berminat melakukan apresiasi dan kajian media komik, dan lebih luas lagi bagi semua pemerhati seni gambar sekuensial

    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

    Variations on the Author

    “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 PDF
    We 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
