Caro Peppe mio... tua Cicia». L’epistolario di Maria Conti Belli al marito e al figlio, edizione critica, commento linguistico e glossario
No full textAfter a disappointing matrimonial experience, Maria Conti, a wealthy Roman widow, married Giuseppe Gioacchino Belli. Of the bond that joined Peppe and Mariuccia remains an extensive correspondence from which the feelings of mutual esteem that kept together the couple transpire, strengthened after the birth of Ciro and lasted until her death in 1837.
The book contains the edition of the 77 letters written by Maria Conti to her husband and 11 to his son since 1829 until 1837; the edition is introduced by an extensive commentary of language and accompanied by a glossary.
Despite the numerous interferences with the dialect and the oral tradition in Maria Conti, there is no trace of that unease revealed for centuries by many writers, especially women, towords a scribal practice perhaps a bit wobbly, but to which Maria Conti, driven by practical and emotional requirements, approached with a typically female enthusiasm and expressiveness.
Testimony of the unexpected writing skill, considering the possibility of being cultered for a woman in the past, the letters return to, both the common reader and the specialist, the private linguistic dimension of a lady in the early nineteenth century through a genuine and spontaneous writing, as indeed that of a letter addressed to beloved ones
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
h a n d s t o r i e s o f i t a l y. The Buranoâs jacket. How fashion designers can use the territory to develop a collection
No full textIn the actual globalized context in which the cross-fertilization among disciplines and different fields of project mixes together forms, systems and processes, cultural identities can make the difference in the production and in the consumption of the products. âh a n d s t o r i e s o f i t a l y. The Buranoâs jacketâ is a project developed as a thesis in Fashion Design at Politecnico di Milano. It consists in an application of Burano lace as the main element in a collection of sports men's jackets with the purpose of enhance the tradition of the "Italian tradition know-how".
Exploring the regions and crafts of Italy we discovered that the elements of the stories told in the regions from generation to generation tell a lot about the belief of the people of that region. These elements keep repeating in the crafts as a form or color. As a next step we decided to focus on one region which we analyzed in depth and made a collection inspired from the region and the craft practiced in that region.
The paper focuses on the territorial dimension of the project; more and more frequently we are currently seeing the return and a new discovery of traditional techniques and manufacturing, which have re-appeared in the contemporary world with a new look and a new balance. As it is subject to changes in time, the set has to be interpreted as a variable heritage which should be preserved. Today the object of market and consumption is not only the simple possession of a specific product but it is the experience, the âstoryâ that the customer can live inside the object, according to values of the manufacture that create add value to the existence
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
