The Implication Of The Scripture Genesis 11:1-9 In Multicultural Context Of Indonesia
Get PDFThe biblical text contains many narratives that are relevant to human problems today. This paper is an exegetical study of the text of Genesis 11: 1-9 which contains a narrative about human arrogance and fear over their abilities and towards human differences. But God broke the arrogance and fear of humans by disrupting their communication. God's purpose is to show that diversity is a necessity. This research was conducted with an exegetical method by combining narrative and semiotic criticism approaches. This critical approach describes who the characters are and their role in the narrative, the narrative plot, the meaning obtained through words/symbols and time, as well as what narrative is discussed and the author's perspective. The purpose of this paper is to deconstruct and find the hidden meaning of the text as well as reconstruct it and discover the implications of the text in multicultural society in Indonesia today. And the conclusion reached is that the biblical narrative is always relevant to human life today. In the context of this paper, the narrative in the Tower of Babel story stresses that God values diversity and that diversity must be lived by everyone.Teks biblikal umumnya berisi banyak sekali narasi yang sangat relevan dengan pergumulan manusia masa kini. Tulisan ini merupakan sebuah studi eksegetikal terhadap teks Kejadian 11:1-9 yang mengisahkan tentang arogansi sekaligus ketakutan manusia terhadap ketidakmampuan dan perbedaan yang mereka miliki. Allah mematahkan arogansi dan ketakutan manusia dengan mengacaubalaukan bahasa dan komunikasi mereka dengan tujuan untuk menunjukkan bahwa keragaman adalah hal yang sangat diperlukan dan penting. Melalui metode eksegetikal dengan mengkombinasikan narasi teks dan kritik semiotika, tulisan ini akan diuraikan. Pendekatan kritis mendeskripsikan mengenai tokoh-tokoh dan perannya dalam narasi, plot narasi, serta makna kata dan simbol serta waktu yang dilihat dari perspektif penulis teks. Tujuan tulisan ini adalah untuk mendekonstruksikan sekaligus menemukan makna tersembunyi di balik narasi untuk kemudian direkonstruksikan. Hasilnya adalah sebuah implikasi teks yang diletakkan pada konteks masyarakat multikultur di Indonesia. Akhirnya, tulisannya memberikan simpul bahwa narasi-narasi biblika masa lalu selalu memiliki relevansi di masa kini. Khususnya pada tulisan ini di mana narasi Menara Babel menekankan bahwa Allah menunjukkan nilai-nilai keragaman harus dihidupi oleh setiap orang
Memaknai בָּלַל (Bȃlal) dan פָּצַץ (Patsats) Kejadian 11:1-9 Dalam Konteks Multikultural di Indonesia
Get PDFMelalui pendekatan eksegetikal, teks kejadian 11:1-9 diharapkan mampu membawa nilai yang bermanfaat untuk konteks multikultural Indonesia saat ini. Fokus penafsiran yang didekonstruksi adalah dua kata Ibrani pada ayat 7 dan 8, yakni dua kata kunci בָּלַל (bȃlal) berarti “untuk mencampur”, “membaur”, “membingungkan” dan פָּצַץ (poots), berarti “disebarkan” atau “diserakkan” yang mana Allah berperan sebagai subyek yang bertindak “menyebarkan”/”menyerakkan”. Kekacauan bahasa telah memutuskan komunikasi sehingga terasing satu sama lain. Mereka memutuskan untuk berpisah (baca: berserak). Multikultural di Indonesia mengalami ambiguitas. Secara harfiah, rakyat Indonesia sudah tersebar/terserak dari Sabang sampai Merauke dengan latar belakang yang sangat beragam. Secara harfiah pula, בָּלַל (bȃlal) dan פָּצַץ (patsats) sudah tergambar dalam identitas Indonesia. Namun nilai dan spiritnya belum dihidupkan secara maksimal dalam sanubari dan semangat berbangsa dan bernegara. Sesungguhnya spirit ini ada di dalam nilai-nilai Pancasila. Spirit בָּלַל (bȃlal) dan פָּצַץ (patsats) yang terkandung di dalam nilai-nilai Pancasila dan yang dihidupi secara konstan akan mentranformasikan masyarakat dan bangsa sehingga pada gilirannya menolongnya memahami diri dan tanggung jawab di tengah keragaman
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
