Perfis femininos da sociedade brasileira em romances de Macedo, Alencar e do jovem Machado
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-graduação em Literatura, Florianópolis, 2009Esta dissertação tem como proposta pesquisar a representação da sociedade oitocentista brasileira através de perfis femininos presentes na literatura da época. Para tanto, escolhemos três personagens centrais de romances de Alencar, Macedo e do jovem Machado, sendo uma de cada autor. O ponto de partida para esta investigação foi compreender a sociedade que se formou a partir da Independência. O ideal de modernidade desta sociedade, o sistema escravista vigente e a contradição entre modernização e escravidão tecem o pano de fundo em que movem as personagens analisadas e a própria forma romanesca no Brasil. O ideal de uma literatura genuinamente brasileira, as dificuldades de ajuste entre matéria "local" e formas importadas, bem como o abrasileiramento do romance, são, neste trabalho, motivos constantes de reflexão
Spinolafoenus Macedo, n. gen.
No full text<i>Spinolafoenus</i> Macedo n. gen. <p>(Figs. 4, 6f, 7 f, 11g –h, 12d, 13f, 14e, 15)</p> <p> <b>Type species.</b> <i>Foenus ruficornis</i> Spinola, 1851.</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> I choose the name of this genus in honor of Massimiliano Spinola, because he described the only known species included in the genus. The gender is masculine.</p> <p> <b>Description.</b> Body length between 14.0–18.0 mm (exclusive of ovipositor).</p> <p> <i>Head.</i> Subrectangular in dorsal view (Fig. 11 g); mandible in frontal view with apex acute; malar space long, fused with gena (Fig. 11 h); clypeus with a longitudinal ridge (Fig. 6f); clypeus and face without longitudinal striae; occipital margin crenulate (Fig. 11 g).</p> <p> <i>Mesosoma.</i> Propleuron simple anteriorly; mesonotum truncate in lateral view (Fig. 13 f); mesoscutum uniformly sculptured, longer than wide, and almost forming a unique plane with two lobes separated by depressed notauli (Fig. 12 d); parapsides barely visible; mesepimeron with a dorsal ridge (Fig. 13 f); fore and middle tibiae uniformly colored; hind tibia red brown, with apex black; metacoxa areolate at posterior portion (Fig. 14 e); propodeum not carinate, with median longitudinal axis slightly concave (Fig. 14 e); fore wing jugal lobe present; discal cell present, subtriangular (Fig. 7 f), vein r–m present; vein 2–M tubular in 1st 1/3 and spectral in remaining portion (Fig. 4a); hind wing with 4–6 equidistant hamuli (Fig. 4a); pronotum with three lobes well defined; pronotal process absent (Fig. 13 f).</p> <p> <i>Metasoma.</i> First metasomal tergum with edges separate, not concealing 1st sternum; female subgenital sternum with a slitlike Y-shaped notch (as Fig. 10 a); ovipositor longer than T2+T3 and shorter than metasoma (Fig. 4).</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> The only species occurs in central Chile between 28ºS and 35ºS (Fig. 15), an area characterized by a Mediterranean climate. Unfortunately the specimen labels do not have altitude data.</p> <p> <b>Biology.</b> Unknown.</p> <p> <b>Comments.</b> This monotypic genus is the sister group of <i>Trilobitofoenus</i>, with four shared synapomorphies. I decided not to group the <i>Spinolafoenus</i> + <i>Trilobitofoenus</i> clade into a unique genus because of the six synapomorphies exclusively shared by the <i>Trilobitofoenus</i> species. The autapomorphies of <i>Spinolafoenus</i> are the crenulate occipital margin, the truncate mesonotum, and the entirely light ovipositor sheath. These autapomorphies are not exclusive of <i>Spinolafoenus</i>. However, the genus has other exclusive characters in Gasteruptiinae that were not used in the cladistic analysis: mesosoma uniformly areolate; metacoxa areolate at posterior portion; and longitudinal axis of propodeum slightly concave. The <i>Spinolafoenus</i> isolation was probably the result of the Andes formation.</p>Published as part of <i>Macedo, Antonio Carlos Cruz, 2009, Generic classification for the Gasteruptiinae (Hymenoptera: Gasteruptiidae) based on a cladistic analysis, with the description of two new Neotropical genera and the revalidation of Plutofoenus Kieffer, pp. 1-32 in Zootaxa 2075</i> on page 16, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/187219">10.5281/zenodo.187219</a>
Freire in dialogo con gli studi culturali e postcoloniali
No full textQuesto breve testo costituisce un primo tentativo di tracciare alcune delle relazioni che collegano le ricerche pedagogiche ed educative di Paulo Freire con l'ambito di ricerca degli studi postcoloniali e culturali. Il testo chiude un piccolo volume in cui viene pubblicato il dialogo Freire-Macedo su razza, lingua e cultura e cerca di fornirne in tal senso una prima contestualizzazione
MeSH term explosion and author rank improve expert recommendations
No full textInformation overload is an often-cited phenomenon that reduces the productivity, efficiency and efficacy of scientists. One challenge for scientists is to find appropriate collaborators in their research. The literature describes various solutions to the problem of expertise location, but most current approaches do not appear to be very suitable for expert recommendations in biomedical research. In this study, we present the development and initial evaluation of a vector space model-based algorithm to calculate researcher similarity using four inputs: 1) MeSH terms of publications; 2) MeSH terms and author rank; 3) exploded MeSH terms; and 4) exploded MeSH terms and author rank. We developed and evaluated the algorithm using a data set of 17,525 authors and their 22,542 papers. On average, our algorithms correctly predicted 2.5 of the top 5/10 coauthors of individual scientists. Exploded MeSH and author rank outperformed all other algorithms in accuracy, followed closely by MeSH and author rank. Our results show that the accuracy of MeSH term-based matching can be enhanced with other metadata such as author rank
„Fabrykacja” dynastii Bragança. Studium oracji Antóniego de Sousy de Macedo "Fala que fez o D. António de Sousa de Macedo do Concelho da Fazenda da sua Magestade..." (1656)
No full textArtykuł przedstawia orację autorstwa Antóniego de Sousy de Macedo (1606-1682) Fala que fez o D. António de Sousa de Macedo do Concelho da Fazenda da sua Magestade, no juramento de rei do Muito Alto e Muito Poderoso Dom Afonso VI, nosso senhor, em quarta-feira 15 de novembro 1656, wydaną drukiem w roku 1656. W tekście dowodzi się, że oracja wpisuje się w szerszy kontekst restauracyjny oraz post-restauracyjny związany zarówno z zakończeniem unii Portugalii i Hiszpanii (1640), jak i z wojną między oboma krajami (1640-1668). Zgodnie z założeniami close reading analizowane są główne osie pochwały monarchy i „fabrykacja” jego prestiżu oraz wizerunku całej dynastii. Wsparcie metodologiczne stanowi m.in. praca Petera Burke’a, Fabrykacja Ludwika XIV (wydanie polskie 2011)

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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

"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
