Letter from Nelson F. Evans to Helen Muir Funk, 1914 Dec 28.
Get PDFTHE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY Of AMERICADecember 28, 1914.Mrs. Helen Muir FunkDaggett, CaliforniaDear Madam:Having seen at newspaper notice of the death of your honored father I write to express my sympathy for you in your sorrow and to say that I count it one of the happy incidents of my long and busy life to have spent some days with him in the Yosemite region in the summer of 1870.I had some correspondence with him early in 1914, and enclose herewith a copy of his letter to me, dated April 14, 1914. I furnished the list of names he requested in that letter and I asked him to advise me where I could purchase a copy of the new book in which he proposed to mention them. If he finished the book, or left the material sufficiently advanced for another to finish it I will thank you to so advise me.My interest is special because the lady whom I married a year later was in that excursion to Eagle Peak, she was the first white woman ever there, and she suggested the name Eagle Peak to Mr. Muir at the time, and he kept his promise to her that it should thereafter be so known. Before that it was simply the highest of the Three Brothers. Yours respectfully,Nelson F. Evanshttps://scholarlycommons.pacific.edu/jmcl/34478/thumbnail.jp

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
