    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

    Subtitling of collocational patterns in children's animated movies: a corpus-based study

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Inglês: Estudos Linguísticos e Literários, Florianópolis, 2015.Abstract : Due to technological innovations and to globalization, the translation of movies, or more specifically, audiovisual translation, has become an ever more common type of translation. However, most of the studies in the area focus on the technicalities involved in the activity, not taking into account the linguistic aspects of translation (Díaz Cintas & Remael, 2007). For that reason, little is known about the challenges and limitations of subtitling, and this area is constantly a target of criticism on its so called ?quality? (Carvalho, 2007). Following a descriptive approach (Toury, 2012), this research aims at uncovering the translation strategies (as defined by Chesterman, 1997; Pedersen, 2005; and Costa, 2014) used by subtitlers while rendering certain language patterns, namely collocations, from American English into Brazilian Portuguese. It takes on the methodological apparatus of corpus-based studies as they enable the processing of large quantities of data quickly and automatically. The corpus is made up of three children?s animated movies (Ice Age, Shrek and Toy Story), the subtitles of which were inserted in COPA-TRAD (Fernandes & Silva, 2013) ? a translation parallel corpus ? and analyzed following Pedersen?s (2005) classification of translation strategies for cultural expressions in subtitles. It was found that, most of the time, subtitlers will attempt to maintain the cultural expression in the translation or, at least, maintain its meaning, despite facing difficulties when dealing with puns and wordplay. In this sense, it can be attested that subtitlers were overall creative and innovative, possibly because of the movie genre they were working on ? animation. These results also show the unfounded nature of the criticism usually aimed this type of audiovisual translation.Graças aos avanços tecnológicos e à globalização, a tradução de filmes, ou mais especificamente, a tradução audiovisual, se tornou um tipo de tradução cada vez mais comum. No entanto, a maior parte das pesquisas feitas na área foca nas tecnicalidades envolvidas nessa atividade, sem levar em conta os aspectos linguísticos da tradução (Díaz Cintas e Remael, 2007). Por esse motivo, não se sabe muito sobre os desafios e as limitações da legendagem, e não raro esta área é alvo constante de críticas relacionadas à sua  qualidade (Carvalho, 2007). Seguindo uma abordagem descritivista (Toury, 1995), espera-se descobrir as estratégias de tradução (como definidas por Chesterman, 1997; Pedersen, 2005; e Costa, 2014) utilizadas por legendadores na tradução de determinados padrões linguísticos, ou colocações, do inglês americano para o português brasileiro. A metodologia aplicada é a dos estudos com base em corpus, já que estes permitem o processamento de grandes quantidades de dados de maneira rápida e automática. O corpus é composto por três filmes infantis de animação (A Era do Gelo, Shrek e Toy Story), cujas legendas foram inseridas no COPA-TRAD (Fernandes e Silva, 2013)  um corpus paralelo de tradução  e analisadas seguindo a classificação de estratégias de tradução de expressões culturais em legendas de Pedersen (2005). Descobriu-se que, na maioria das vezes, os legendadores tentam manter a expressão cultural na tradução ou, ao menos, manter seu significado, apesar de enfrentarem dificuldades ao lidarem com trocadilhos e jogos de palavras. Nesse sentido, pode-se afirmar que os legendadores foram em geral criativos e inovadores, possivelmente devido ao gênero dos filmes em que trabalharam  animação. Esses resultados mostram também a natureza infundada das críticas que são geralmente direcionadas a esse tipo de tradução audiovisual

    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

    Isoctenus areia Polotow & Brescovit 2009

    Isoctenus areia Polotow & Brecovit, 2009 New records. This species was hitherto known only from its type locality in Areia, state of Paraíba (Polotow & Brescovit 2009). Its distribution is expanded to the surrounding areas of Mamanguape, state of Paraíba, and Igarassu, state of Pernambuco (Fig. 7). The type-locality is a Brejo de Altitude forest, a montane humid forest surrounded by semiarid, lowland Caatinga. With the new records, the known species range expands to the typical coastal forest, probably in a disjunct and well-known distribution pattern in the northern Atlantic Rain Forest.
