Gilberto Freyre in between frevo and samba in Recife's carnival
No full textRecife's carnival has always been of interest to Gilberto Freyre, who worried particularly about the influence of the rhythm and the practices of Rio de Janeiro's festivity on that of Recife. This article examines this theme by relating it to Freyre's ideas about the formation of Brazilian society. It considers the sociological critique of Freyre's important works in order to analyze how the author locates representations of Recife and Rio de Janeiro in opposite poles of the pair tradition and modernity. The relationship between frevo and samba provides a new perspective to Freyre's recurrent and significant discussions on the themes of 'adaptation', 'transregional influences' and 'balance of opposites'.O carnaval do Recife esteve entre os interesses de Gilberto Freyre, que, mais especificamente, se preocupava com a influência dos ritmos e práticas carnavalescas do Rio de Janeiro na festa pernambucana. Este artigo busca relacionar as ideias presentes em alguns de seus textos sobre esse tema ao repertório mais amplo de seu pensamento acerca da formação da sociedade brasileira. Balizado pela leitura de obras importantes de Freyre e no diálogo com a crítica sociológica a ele dedicada, o esforço empreendido é o de burilar o jogo comparativo e metonímico que o autor agencia, ao localizar as representações do Recife e do Rio de Janeiro em polos opostos do binômio tradição e modernidade. A relação entre o frevo e o samba fornece novo ângulo para o enfoque dos temas da "adaptação", "influências transregionais" e "equilíbrio dos contrários" que permeiam sua obra.MENEZES NETO, H.

Patrimônios (in) visíveis experiências museológicas na comunidade de Fortalezinha/Pará
No full textThis research is a reflection about museology actions developed at the community of
Fortalezinha (PA) by the project “(In) Visible Patrimonies – The documental photography as
process of artistic investigation”, which the final result was the exhibition (In) Visible
Patrimonies – Fortalezinha. The project consisted in research/action oh college extension
made during the years of 2015/2016 at the referred Village and was the winner of the Proex of
Art and Culture Award. The discussion to which it links thinks patrimony beyond tipping and
register from the competent agencies, enlightening the self-determination, the idea of the own
social groups about what could be considered patrimony according their social experience,
setting precedents for all material and immaterial expressions. Photography as tool of visual
register of those patrimonies elected by the community, however its role in this project goes
beyond the mere documental register, because it is thought as a way of safeguard of these
patrimonies. For such registers the experience was essential in and with the community,
taking part of the daily life of locals, as well as recordings of their speeches through
interviews and chatting, to look for the roots of what was to be photographed.A pesquisa em questão é uma reflexão sobre as ações museológicas desenvolvidas na
comunidade de Fortalezinha (PA) através do projeto “Patrimônios (In) Visíveis – A fotografia
documental como processo de investigação artística”, cujo produto final foi a exposição
Patrimônios (In) Visíveis – Fortalezinha. O projeto se constituiu numa pesquisa/ação de
extensão universitária realizadas durante o ano 2015/2016 na referida Vila e foi vencedor do
IV Prêmio Proex de Arte e Cultura. A discussão ao qual ele se vincula pensa patrimônio para
além do tombamento e dos registros pelos órgãos competentes, iluminando a
autodeterminção, a ideia dos próprios grupos sociais do que pode ser tido como patrimônio na
sua experiência social, abrindo precedentes para todas as expressões materiais e imateriais. A
fotografia foi a ferramenta de registro visual desses patrimônios eleitos pela comunidade,
porém o seu papel no projeto vai além de mero registro documental, pois é pensada também
como uma forma de salvaguarda desses patrimônios. Para obter tais registros foi
imprescindível a vivência na e com a comunidade, participando do cotidiano dos moradores,
assim como também a gravação de suas falas através de entrevistas e conversas, para buscar
as raízes daquilo que viria a ser fotografado
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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 PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
