Tari Topeng Klono pernah mengalami masa kejayaan dan sangat fungsional dalam masyarakat di Desa Jabung. Keberadaannya pada waktu dahulu, selain menjadi pelengkap pertunjukan Wayang Topeng sebagai tari pembuka, tetapi juga berdiri sendiri sebagai pertunjukan sakral dalam ritual perkawinan, khitanan, bersih desa, agustusan dan lain sebagainya. Akan tetapi saat ini kondisinya sangat memprihatinkan. Tari Topeng Klono ini hampir punah dan tidak pernah dipentaskan lagi. Sebagai warisan leluhur yang dulunya pernah menjadi bagian kehidupan dan sangat fungsional di masyarakat, maka sangat disayangkan apabila tari tersebut hilang begitu saja tanpa bekas Tari Topeng Klono tersebut memiliki ciri khas yang sangat spesifikasi dan layak untuk dikembangkan sesuai dengan selera masyarakat masa kini. Berdasarkan fenomena tersebut, rumusan masalah yang diajukan untuk mengungkap fenomena tersebut, yaitu: (1) Bagaimana latar belakang kehidupan Misdi sebagai seniman Wayang Topeng (2) Bagaimana bentuk atau teks Tari Topeng Klono Jabung. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian kualitatif (pendokumentasian) karena penelitian ini lebih mengutamakan hasil data berupa penjelasan bersifat narasi dan deskriptif. Pengumpulan data penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan studi pustaka, pengamatan/observasi, wawancara dan laboratorium. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan, bahwa kehidupan Misdi adalah seorang seniman Wayang Topeng dari Desa Jabung. Tahun 1987-an Misdi menjadi pemimpin Wayang Topeng Jabung hingga saat ini. Misdi mengembangkan dan mengolah kembali Tari Topeng Klono menjadi gaya pembawaannya sendiri dan menjadi khas yang berasal dari Desa Jabung. Bentuk Tari Topeng Klono gaya Misdi dapat dicermati melalui struktur gerak pola atau motif gerak, tata busana dan tata iringan yang digunakan. Kata Kunci: Tari Topeng Klono, Gaya Misdi

    Different concentrations of sucrose laurate solution with constant amount of ibuprofen were prepared to study the effect of sucrose laurate surfactants on solubility of ibuprofen. A study on standard calibration curve of ibuprofen was conducted to determine the amount of ibuprofen dissolved. Uv-vis spectroscopy was used to analyze the solubility of ibuprofen in sucrose ester surfactants. The results proved that sucrose laurate can improved the solubility of ibuprofen

    BEYOND CRITICAL THINKING IN ACADEMIC WRITING: A DISCOURSE PERSPECTIVE: DISCOURSE PERSPECTIVE Misdi, Nurani Hartini, Dian Farijanti, Department of English Education, University of Swadaya Gunung Jati Cirebon, Indonesia [email protected]*, [email protected], [email protected]

    The phenomenon of critical thinking, as one aspect of learning experiences, is challenging. Yet, it reflects students’ ideas and understanding of particular matters, especially in academic writing among the English education institutions. Thus, this study was aimed to investigate how undergraduate students fashioned their understanding of being self-driven in writing research proposal relating to reading skills. The research questions drop into two big areas: 1) How is critical thinking reflected in research proposal writing, 2) What are evidences of being critical in addressing research proposal? Having three sessions of in-depth interview, fifty seven students of English department of a private university in West Java, Indonesia were involved in the reflection of their writing and reading experiences during the study. The data were collected through interview and document observation. The findings suggest that first, the critical writing is reflected by such citation and elaborative sentences as the distinctive writing features of academic writing. Second, the extended description and elaboration are made due to reading constraint. Books are mainly the sources, whereas research journal articles are still less appreciated. Thus, reading is defines as the evidence of being critical. The results of the study play significant contribution in building critical thinking, critical reading, and critical writing as self-awareness manifesto among the students of English education

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    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

    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
