L'edizione critica tra digitale e stampa: riflessioni metodologiche
No full textThis contribution explores the world of digital critical editions by proposing reflections on the methodology that can be used for their production. The first part analyses the positions of various scholars on the digital critical edition and its definition. In particular, the relationship between digital critical edition and digital scholarly edition is explored. The criteria used to build Sahle's and Franzini's catalogues help to understand both the concept of digital scholarly edition and the state of the art of digital critical editions in the classical context. Subsequently, the constituent elements of the digital edition are taken into consideration and how they can be integrated with the critical edition method. Elements such as the choice of mark-up language and tools for creating an interface in relation to the text are an integral part of the digital critical edition process. For this reason, they need a thorough reflection on their characteristics and their use. Finally, we focus on the potential of the digital critical edition and how it differs from the printed critical edition, proposing new ways of transmission and scientific communication of philological work, starting from the critical apparatus to the use of images as components of the editions and the possibility of collaborative editions.Il presente contributo esplora il mondo delle edizioni critiche digitali proponendo riflessioni sulla metodologia utilizzabile per la loro produzione. Nella prima parte sono analizzate le posizioni di vari studiosi sull'edizione critica digitale e sulla sua definizione. In particolare, si approfondisce il rapporto tra edizione critica digitale ed edizione scientifica digitale. I criteri utilizzati per costruire i cataloghi di Sahle e di Franzini aiutano a comprendere sia il concetto di edizione scientifica digitale, sia lo stato dell’arte delle edizioni critiche digitali in ambito classico. Successivamente si prendono in considerazione gli elementi costitutivi dell’edizione digitale e come essi possano integrarsi al metodo dell’edizione critica. Elementi come la scelta del linguaggio di codifica e degli strumenti per la creazione di un’interfaccia in relazione al testo sono parte integrante del processo di edizione critica digitale. Per questo motivo, essi necessitano di una riflessione approfondita sulle loro caratteristiche e sul loro utilizzo. Infine, ci si sofferma sulle potenzialità dell’edizione critica digitale e come essa di diversifichi dall’edizione critica a stampa, proponendo nuove vie di trasmissione e comunicazione scientifica del lavoro filologico, a partire dall’apparato critico per arrivare all’utilizzo delle immagini come componenti delle edizioni e alla possibilità di edizioni collaborative

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
Digitalizzare un dizionario oggi dall’acquisizione del testo alla pubblicazione:: il caso studio del dizionario latino Lana 1978
No full textThe article aims to present, through a case study, a possible methodology for creating an open-access digital dictionary from an existing print edition. Specifically, it describes the digitization process of the Latin dictionary published by Italo Lana in 1978 by the Paravia publishing house. From this dictionary, entries related to the semantic domain of nature in the ancient world have been extracted. The content of the entries has been enriched through the study of literary works, and the reflections derived from this analysis are reflected in the dictionary’s encoding.
The approach to the text is based on the study of best practices currently adopted in digital lexicography and seeks to align with the principles of FAIR data production. While developed within the specific context of Latin lexicography, this methodology offers a replicable model for anyone undertaking a similar project.L’articolo ha l’obiettivo di mostrare attraverso un caso studio una possibile metodologia applicabile alla creazione di un dizionario digitale in accesso aperto a partire da un testo cartaceo già esistente. In particolare, è esposta l’operazione di digitalizzazione del dizionario latino pubblicato da Italo Lana nel 1978 con l’editore Paravia. Dal dizionario del 1978 sono stati estratti i lemmi afferenti all’ambito semantico della natura nel mondo antico. Il contenuto delle voci è stato arricchito tramite lo studio di opere della letteratura e il risultato delle riflessioni si riflette nella codifica stessa del dizionario.
L’approccio al testo nasce dallo studio delle migliori pratiche attualmente diffuse nella lessicografia digitale e si propone di essere allineato alla produzione di dati FAIR. Tale metodologia è elaborata nel contesto specifico della lessicografia latina, ma i risultati ottenuti possono essere un esempio replicabile per chiunque affronti questo genere di operazione
