Vozes do poder: A influência dos mitos no modo de viver dos povoados rurais do município de Cametá- PA
No full textA influência dos mitos no modo de viver dos povoados negros rurais do município de Cametá-PA, é um trabalho resultante da pesquisa de mestrado do professor Mix de Leão Moia, desenvolvido no programa de pós-graduação em Comunicação, Linguagem e Cultura, da UNAMA. Este, traz de forma nítida a influência das narrativas míticas presentes nos povoados negros em comunidades às margens do rio Tocantins, município de Cametá, no Pará, mostrando toda a cultura quilombola amazônica presentes em narrativas, as quais emergem como formas do poder, coerção e controle social nos espaços em que estão inseridos. São as vozes (po) éticas que vêm dos encantos das florestas e ecoam há gerações nas comunidades quilombolas da região de Cametá através da arte de falar e olhar.
Trabalhando com a história oral e as histórias de vida de depoentes que vivem na comunidade de Mola e Tomázia, o professor Mix de Leão Moia faz um trabalho minucioso com a memória social/coletiva, descrevendo com riqueza de detalhes, em uma linguagem acessível, as nuances das histórias de vidas das pessoas que vivem no local, demonstrando através das histórias da “Calça Molhada” o quanto a narrativa mítica é utilizada como mecanismo de controle social, mostrando que tal narrativa possui uma moral implícita por determinar hábitos, prescrições e vetos em um espaço não delimitado por cercas e arames, mas que possui um “vigia” incansável que desde os tempos em que o lugar abrigava negros fugitivos, protege o lugar, porque afinal ninguém entra e ninguém sai sem antes conhecer ou ouvir falar do mito da Calça Molhada.
Portanto, convido a todos os leitores que buscam conhecer sobre a cultura quilombola, especialmente, ligada aos estudos das narrativas míticas a se debruçar sobres essas vozes que contam em encantam no interior das florestasThe influence of myths on the way of life of rural black villages in the municipality of Cametá-PA, is a work resulting from the master's research by Professor Mix de Leão Moia, developed in the postgraduate program in Communication, Language and Culture, from UNAMA. This, clearly brings the influence of mythic narratives present in black villages in communities on the banks of the Tocantins River, municipality of Cametá, Pará, showing all the Amazonian quilombola culture present in narratives, which emerge as forms of power, coercion and social control in the spaces in which they are inserted. These are the (po) ethical voices that come from the charms of the forests and have echoed for generations in the quilombola communities of the Cametá region through the art of speaking and looking.
Working with the oral history and life stories of deponents who live in the community of Mola and Tomázia, Professor Mix de Leão Moia does a thorough job with social / collective memory, describing, in a wealth of details, in accessible language, the nuances of the life stories of the people who live in the place, demonstrating through the stories of the “Pant Wet” how much the mythical narrative is used as a mechanism of social control, showing that such narrative has an implicit moral for determining habits, prescriptions and vetoes in a space not delimited by fences and wires, but which has a tireless “watchman” that since the time when the place housed fugitive blacks, protects the place, because after all no one enters and no one leaves without first knowing or hearing about the myth of the Pants Wet.
Therefore, I invite all readers who seek to know about quilombola culture, especially linked to the studies of mythic narratives to address these voices that count on enchantment within the forests
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
