    Get PDF
    This study aims to identify and analyze conversations that violate the principles of maxims in communication and to elucidate the violations of maxims by interpreting the contextual factors associated with these violations. The analysis is conducted using Grice’s theory of flouting maxim and Sperber and Wilson’s relevance theory on conversations in The Ellen Show program. A qualitative approach is used in this study to analyze and identify violations of communication principles that occur during these interviews. Out of twenty-seven cases, there are twenty cases where Grice’s maxims are violated. The maxim of quality has the highest frequency of violations, with eleven cases, or 55.0% of total violations. This is followed by maxims of manner and relevance, each with 14 (20.0%) and 13 (15.0%) cases respectively. The maxim of quantity has two cases of violation, accounting for 10.0% of the total. The dialogues between Ellen DeGeneres and Sofía Vergara show a significant presence of assumptions that are closely related to the specific context of their discussions and produce contextual effects that drive the conversation. The relevance of these assumptions is determined based on their ability to establish connections with the surrounding context and generate contextual effects, such as implications, contradictions, or strengthening. In general, their conversations illustrate the importance of contextual effects in establishing the significance of assumptions and influencing the course of a dialogue.   Keywords: Maxim Violation, Relevance Theory, Contextual EffectPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis percakapan yang melanggar prinsip maksim dalam komunikasi dan menjelaskan pelanggaran maksim tersebut dengan menginterpretasikan faktor-faktor kontekstual yang terkait.

Pendekatan kualitatif digunakan dalam penelitian ini untuk menganalisis dan mengidentifikasi pelanggaran prinsip komunikasi yang terjadi selama wawancara. Dari dua puluh tujuh kasus, terdapat dua puluh kasus di mana pelanggaran maksim Grice terjadi. Maksim kualitas memiliki frekuensi pelanggaran tertinggi, dengan sebelas kasus, atau 55.0% dari total pelanggaran. Ini diikuti oleh maksim cara dan relevansi, masing-masing 14 (20.0%) dan 13 (15.0%). Maksim kuantitas memiliki dua kasus pelanggaran, atau 10.0% dari total. Dialog antara Ellen DeGeneres dan Sofía Vergara menunjukkan adanya asumsi yang erat kaitannya dengan konteks spesifik diskusi mereka dan menghasilkan efek kontekstual yang mendorong percakapan. Relevansi asumsi-asumsi ini ditentukan berdasarkan kemampuan mereka untuk membuat koneksi dengan konteks sekitar dan menghasilkan efek kontekstual, seperti implikasi, kontradiksi, atau penguatan. Secara umum percakapan mereka menggambarkan pentingnya efek kontekstual dalam menetapkan signifikansi asumsi dan mempengaruhi jalannya dialog.   Kata kunci: Pelanggaran Maxim, Teori Relevansi, Efek Kontekstua

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Get PDF
    The 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

    “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

    Rendering historical and sociocultural references through subtitles: The case of English-Indonesian translation in Netflix’s History 101

    Get PDF
    In today’s global circulation of audiovisual media, translating cultural references poses a significant challenge–particularly in documentary genres that aim to educate diverse audiences. History 101, a Netflix documentary series, features dense historical and cultural content that demands careful linguistic and cultural adaptation in its subtitled version. This study investigates the types of cultural references and the subtitling strategies used to translate them into Indonesian. Drawing on Cintas and Remael’s (2021) taxonomy–widely applied in audiovisual translation research–the study adopts a descriptive case study design. The analysis identifies a high concentration of ethnographic references, followed by socio-political and geographical categories. These references include elements such as daily life objects, institutions, and place names. To render these into the target language, the subtitler applies a range of strategies, with loan translation being the most frequently used. Literal translation, calque, explicitation, substitution, and transposition are also observed, reflecting a tendency to strike a balance between linguistic accuracy and accessibility for the target audience. Overall, the findings underscore the richness of the documentary’s cultural content and the complexity of subtitling such materials. The frequent use of ethnographic references and loan translation suggests an effort to preserve cultural specificity while ensuring comprehension for Indonesian viewers.

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We 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

    A Covid-19 Social Assistance Corruption Case On Jakarta Globe News Articles: A Framing Analysis

    Get PDF
    Political news is always related to framing which is used to find out the perspective or point of view used by journalists or mass media when selecting issues and writing news. The way journalists or media writes the news and shows their point of view will determine whether or not the media favors certain groups. This study will examine how the Jakarta Globe frames the news regarding the corruption case of the Covid-19 social assistance fund carried out by the former of Social Minister, Juliari Peter Batubara. The data used in this study are three news published by Jakarta Globe on December 6, 2020 which the same day with the former of Social Minister Juliari Peter Batubara surrendered himself to the KPK. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach using framing analysis from Zhongdang Pan and Gerald M Kosicki. Framing analysis from Zhongdang Pan and Gerald M. Kosicki focuses on four structures, namely syntax, script, thematic, and rhetorical. The conclusion is the Jakarta Globe is not neutral in the writing of corruption cases carried out by the former of Social Minister Juliari Peter Batubara in a very subtle way.Pemberitaan politik selalu berkaitan dengan pembingkaian, pembingkaian digunakan untuk mengetahui bagaimana perspektif atau sudut pandang yang digunakan wartawan atau media massa ketika menyeleksi isu dan menulis berita. Cara jurnalis atau media menuliskan berita dan menunjukan sudut pandangnya akan menentukan berpihak atau tidaknya media tersebut kepada kelompok tertentu. Penelitian ini akan mengkaji bagaimana Jakarta Globe membingkai berita mengenai kasus korupsi dana bantuan sosial Covid-19 yang dilakukan oleh mantan Menteri Sosial Juliari Peter Batubara. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini berupa 3 berita yang diterbitkan oleh Jakarta Globe pada tanggal 6 Desember 2020 yang bertepatan dengan hari mantan Menteri Sosial Juliari Peter Batubara menyerahkan diri ke KPK. Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah metode pendekatan kualitatif dengan menggunakan analisis framing dari Zhongdang Pan dan Gerald M. Kosicki. Analisis Framing dari Zhongdang Pan dan Gerald M. Kosicki akan berfokus pada empat struktur yakni Sintaksis, Skrip, Tematik, dan Retoris. Kesimpulannya, Jakarta Globe tidak netral dalam penulisan kasus korupsi yang dilakukan mantan Menteri Sosial Juliari Peter Batubara dengan cara yang sangat halus

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We 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
