Mujeres e historia: O sobre las formas de la escritura y de la enseñanza de la Historia
Get PDFLos estudios sobre la Historia de las Mujeres hicieron posible su "rescate" de los archivos y su lenta, pero progresiva, presencia tanto en la historiografía "sabia" como en la escolar. Esta ha sido una tarea desarrollada fundamentalmente por las historiadoras, que ha tenido ya su repercusión, aunque ésta sea aún parcial, en ambas dimensiones de la actividad historiográfica, en la investigación y en la docencia. Los más recientes enfoques de esta historiografía, feminista en su origen, se centran actualmente, a partir de las aportaciones de la lingüística y del análisis del discurso, en el estudio de las distintas "representaciones" que sobre las mujeres hicieron los emisores de los discursos filosóficos, morales o políticos de épocas pretéritas. A través de esta operación epistemológica, la atención y las preguntas se han desplazado desde los "hechos" y las determinaciones materiales, que se consideraron previamente como muestras directas de la realidad histórica, hacia el análisis de las imágenes y las representaciones culturales que ya no son "datos" inocentes del pasado, sino "discursos" construidos con intenciones diversificadas. Este último aspecto ha posibilitado reasumir el debate existente respecto de los planteamientos historiográficos que hacían de los principios y de los valores ilustrados bases indiscutibles de modernidad y de progreso. La Historia de las Mujeres ha permitido una mirada distinta, a menudo crítica y más "real", de nuestro concepto de modernidad.Fil: Morant, Isabel. Universidad de Valencia
Readings of the second sex of Simone de Beauvoir
Get PDFEl segundo sexo de Simone de Beauvoir, publicado en 1947, es hoy un clásico del feminismo que se sigue leyendo. En el artículo se analiza la historia de este libro; el contexto intelectual que lo inspiró, los trazos esenciales de su pensamiento y la recepción; el escándalo que produjo su aparición, en Francia, los ecos en España y las lecturas posteriores del libro. "No se nace mujer; se llega a serlo", la conocida frase que el feminismo haría suya, en los años setenta, resume bien el valor, epistemológico y político, de un libro que, aún hoy, sirve de inspiración para pensar el devenir de las mujeresSimone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex, published in 1974 became a classic book and is still being read nowadays. This Essay analyses the history of this book; the intellectual context it was inspired from, its essential line of thinking and how was it welcome from readers; also the shock it meant when it was first published in France, its echoes in Spain and the subsequent readings. The famous sentence 'You are not born a woman, you become a woman', which was endorsed by Feminism in the 1970's, summarizes well the political and epistemological value of a book that, even today, inspires to think about the future of womenFil: Morant, Isabel.

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
