Social Life and Social Landscapes Among Halaf and Ubaid Communities: A Case Study from the Upper Tigris Area
No full textSettlement patterns and related types of investigation
(e.g., site densities, site dimensions and land-use)
have in the last 50 years shed light on a number of
archaeological issues previously underestimated or
ignored by archaeologists. By means of survey projects
it has been possible to reconstruct several crucial
aspects of the archaeology of the Ancient Near East.
A major consequence has been a growing awareness
of the landscape as a fundamental subject for modern
archaeological research, of great significance for
understanding ancient complex societies, especially
from the 3rd millennium BC onwards (Adams 1981;
Adams and Nissen 1972; Smith 2014; Wilkinson 2003).
Pre- and proto-historic periods have received somewhat
less attention, probably due to the absence of solid and
well-established human communities that acted on the
surrounding landscape by exhibiting the traditional
markers of ‘complexity’ common in later periods, e.g.,
hierarchy, power, and prestige, (Smith 2014; Wilkinson
et al. 2005)1.
Using the Upper Tigris as a case study and investigating
it by means of statistical analyses I intend to explore
the possible occurrence of a ‘social landscape’ as
far back as the 6th and 5th millennium BC, in this
area associated with the Halaf and Northern Ubaid
Periods. I propose that societies with a lower level of
socioeconomic complexity still had an impact on the
territory and worked, perhaps unintentionally, to
modify it. The outcome of such modifications might
have been different and indeed visually less clear and
direct than those created by later and more complex
entities, but were likely perceived by the inhabitants of
the landscape and are still visible today, though their
identification requires a more subtle investigation of
the evidence still visible in the landscape
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
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
