A Matter of Books. Rubens and the Cultural Exchange with the Genoese Aristocracy: the case of Giovanni Vincenzo Imperiale
No full text1648: Giovanni Vincenzo Imperiale, politician, one of the most influential men of Italy, a collector of unparalleled paintings even in the renowned parterre of the Superba dies in Genoa. Of minor interest from the point of view of mere economic value, but far greater as regards the possibility of offering a privileged look at the Genoese cultural context is the remarkable library of the Imperiale, which emerges with its over a thousand volumes from the archives. It is the only Genoese library to contain, in full, the book production of the Flemish philosopher Giusto Lipsio: a real collection of over twenty texts. In the same way, still very young, the Imperial had been Rubens' client, whom he had met in Genoa, most likely in the painter's first passage in the city, in 1604. If the Imperiale was in such high esteem for Rubens' paintings that two copies were immediately drawn, the same could perhaps be said for the culture that the painter (who was the same age) then brought with him. It is extraordinary to be able to detect thanks to the inventories witnessed by the documents, from the point of view of the library and not only of the artistic collection, how the influence of a complex personality such as that of the painter from Siegen could have left its mark even in the libraries of the Republic of Genova
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
