Pavao Ritter Vitezović\u27s private records and verse correspondence as sources of insight into the quotidian life of the author in the pre-modern Habsburg Empire
Full text linkThis paper presents the results of research into several aspects of the everyday life of the Croatian polymath Pavao Ritter Vitezović during his stay in Vienna in the period from 1710 to 1712. It contains an introduction, two case studies, and final remarks, as well as the renditions of several epistles into Croatian language by Zrinka Blažević. The first study is based on the critical edition published in 2019 under the title Pavao Ritter Vitezović, Epistolae Metricae (edited by Violeta Moretti and Gorana Stepanić). It thematizes an episode from Vitezović\u27s life exploring a few striking elements that can be inferred from the epistolary conversation between Vitezović and the secretary for correspondence of the Hungarian Court Office Éliás Wanyeczy concerning a joint meal on St Leonard\u27s day. These elements include the question of the menu, and the nature of the relationship between the two correspondents. The letter addressed to Ritter (NSK, R 3953 b) facilitates the reconstruction of Vitezović\u27s relationship with Wanyeczy, and supplements the conclusions about the role of the Latin epistle in the conversational culture of the early eighteenth century.
The second study presents several insights into Vitezović\u27s work habits based on the exploration of the author\u27s personal notes contained within the booklet bearing the title Varia extracta et notitiae (archived in the National and University Library in Zagreb, Croatia, as manuscript R 3463). It shows that Vitezović, who is well known today as an extremely productive author, continues to build his own fund of proverbs, sayings and quotes in his mature years. Of special interest are two Croatian verses with atypical content compared to the rest of Vitezović\u27s œuvre, as well as his personal notes on sold copies of his recent editions. Although the selected sources are not diaries in the strict sense – considering the fact that epistolae metricae are verse epistles addressed to both the various correspondents from Vitezović\u27s time and to posterity, while Varia extracta et notitiae are prose records of a private character – yet they offer insight into Vitezović\u27s everyday life and, as such, need to be further explored if we wish to provide a basis for presenting Vitezović\u27s private life in greater detail

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
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
Perception of female anime characters: a problematic side of anime culture
No full textOvaj rad daje pregled stavova te iznosi pojedine zaključke o percipiranju ženskih likova u animeu te o problematičnoj strani anime kulture recentnijih autora na engleskom jeziku. Nastojeći dati cjelovitu sliku razvoja animea, počinje rezimeom povijesti i evolucije animea. Yamaguchi tematizira početke, rad studija Ghibli, kao i rad Hayaoa Miyazakija. U nastavku se prenose zaključci autora Schodta o utjecajima časopisa Shōjo friend i Margaret na anime kulturu. Lai analizira problem ženskog izgleda dvaju animea: Sailor Moon i Cardcaptor Sakura. Uzastopno tome, Hemmann spominje ženske pojave u japanskim medijima, analizira bishōjo likove iz raznih animea, spominje cenzuru mange i muškarčev pornografski pogled na mlade žene. Kroz bishōjo likove Hemmann nas upoznaje s pet šarmantnih i privlačnih Mjesečevih ratnica, a posebnu pažnju posvećuje liku Rei Ayanami iz animea Neon Genesis Evangelion. Lemarre pažnju posvećuje animeima Laputa i Nadia u kojima se spominje shōjo-hood, gdje djevojka sazrijeva iz nevinog shōjoa u bishōjo. Stručnjakinja za otaku i lolita kulturu Miyuki Hashimoto prvi put spominje lolicon žanr te zaključuje o mnogim sličnostima “Lolita kompleksa” s pedofilijom. Hashimoto spominje pojam moe, tj. ljubav prema slatkim djetinjastim likovima, i nijigen kompleks. Tezuka Osamu, prema Hashimoto, uvodi moe osjećaj u otakue; dolazi do vizualnog prikaza djevojke. Sukladno uvidima autorice Hashimoto, Savage opisuje fenomen rorikona, niz animea ili mangi nalik na Lolitu, erotizira pojam ljupkosti uz roman Lolita autora Vladimira Nabokova.This paper provides an overview of attitudes and presents certain conclusions about the perception of female characters in anime and about the problematic side of anime culture by more recent authors in the English language. Trying to give a complete picture of the development of anime, he begins with a summary of the history and evolution of anime, Yamaguchi thematizes the beginnings and work of Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki. Below are the conclusions of author Schodt about the influence of Shōjo friend and Margaret magazines on anime culture. Lai analyzes the problem of female appearance in two animes – Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura. In addition, Hemmann mentions women's appearances in Japanese media, analyzes bishōjo characters from various anime, mentions manga censorship and men's pornographic view of young women. Through bishōjo characters, Hemmann introduces us to five charming and attractive Moon Warriors and pays special attention to the character Rei Ayanami from the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. Lemarre pays attention to the anime Laputa and Nadia where shōjo-hood is mentioned, where a girl matures from an innocent shōjo into a bishōjo. Miyuki Hashimoto, an expert on otaku and lolita culture, mentions the lolicon genre for the first time, concluding that the “lolita complex” has many similarities with pedophilia. Hashimoto mentions the concept of moe, i.e. love for cute childish characters and nijigen complex. Osamu Tezuka, according to Hashimoto, introduces the moe feeling to otakus, he comes up with a visual representation of the girl. In line with Hashimoto's insights, Savage describes the rorikon phenomenon, a series of Lolita-like anime or manga, eroticizing the notion of cuteness with the novel Lolita, by Vladimir Nabokov
