The Cathedral of St Alexander Nevski in Sofia.
No full textPreviously in the University eprints HAIRST pilot service at http://eprints.st-andrews.ac.uk/archive/00000393/Article 4 of 6 in an issue devoted to the visual culture of South Eastern EuropeBuilt to celebrate the liberation of Bulgaria from centuries of Ottoman domination, the Cathedral of St. Alexander Nevski in Sofia has aroused only scant interest among art historians both inside and outside the country. In recent years, the general disinterest surrounding this monument can be ascribed to the political climate in Bulgaria after the Second World War; for almost half a century the militant atheism of the Communist regime stifled the religious feelings of the Bulgarian people, forcing believers underground. Consequently, under pressure from the regime, religious works of art and places of worship fell into neglect.
In view of this void, the aim of my research was to document as completely as possible all the various aspects of the Cathedral of St. Alexander Nevski. I then traced the history of Bulgaria, starting from the Ottoman conquest and focusing particularly on the period of the Bulgarian Renaissance, which led the country, with the help of Russia, to freedom from the Turkish Empire and then to independence. I hope that this study will shed a glimmer of light on this splendid building and help to stimulate interest in Bulgaria's artistic heritage.Postprin
El género Dactylorhiza Necker ex Nevski ( Orchidaceae ) en Extremadura, España
No full textIn the study was revised the Dactylorhiza Necker ex Nevski populations from Extermadura ( Spain ). The study was revealed the presence of the species following: Dactylorhiza caramulensis ( Verm) d. Tyteca, D Elata ( Poir) Soó, D Ericetorum ( E.F. Linton )Aver., D Fuschii ( Druce) Soó, D. Incaranta (L ) Soó., D Insularis ( Sommier) Landwehr D. Maculata ( L) Soó y D Markusii ( Tineo ) H Baumann&Künkele . Also, was found the taxa of the D. Elata ( Poir) Soó: D Elata var.elata (Poir ) Soó, D Elata var.iberica (T Stephenson ) Soó y D.elata var sesquipedalis ( Willd) Landwerh. We can indicant the existence of two hybrids taxa inner Dactylorhiza Necker ex Nevski: Dactylorhiza x transiens ( Druce) Soó (= Dactylorhiza fuschii x D Maculata) y Orchidactylorhiza atacina Delforge (= Dactylorhiza insularis x Orchis mascula ). Finally the study revealed the first citacion from Extremadura region ( Spain), of the taxa following: Dactylorhiza caramulensis ( Verm). D Tyteca , D.Elata var. elata ( Poir) Soó , D Elata var.iberica ( T Stephenson )Soó, D. Ericetorum ( E.F. Linton)Aver, D Fuschii ( Druce)Soó , D Incarnata (L)Soó, Dactylorhiza x transiens ( Druce)Soó y Orchidactylorhiza x atacina ( P. Delforge) P. Delforge, and amplified the distribution areas of all taxa.En el presente estudio se revisa las poblaciones extremeñas conocidas hasta la fecha para el género Dactylorhiza Necker ex Nevski en Extremadura ( España). El estudio releva la existencia de las siguientes especies: Dactylorhiza caramulensis ( Verm) d. Tyteca, D Elata ( Poir) Soó, D Ericetorum ( E.F. Linton )Aver., D Fuschii ( Druce) Soó, D. Incaranta (L ) Soó., D Insularis ( Sommier) Landwehr D. Maculata ( L) Soó y D Markusii ( Tineo ) H Baumann&Künkele . Además, se pone de manifiesto la presencia de los siguientes taxones en el grupo de D. Elata ( Poir) Soó: D Elata var.elata (Poir ) Soó, D Elata var.iberica (T Stephenson ) Soó y D.elata var sesquipedalis ( Willd) Landwerh. Por otro lado se ha confirmado la existencia de al menos dos taxones híbridos en los que participan especies del género Dactylorhiza Necker ex Nevski: Dactylorhiza x transiens ( Druce) Soó (= Dactylorhiza fuschii x D Maculata) y Orchidactylorhiza atacina Delforge (= Dactylorhiza insularis x Orchis mascula ). En síntesis podemos indicar que el trabajo amplia el área de distribución de las especies conocidas para Extermadura y revela por primera vez la existencia de los siguientes taxones para el territorio extermeño: Dactylorhiza caramulensis ( Verm). D Tyteca , D.Elata var. elata ( Poir) Soó , D Elata var.iberica ( T Stephenson )Soó, D. Ericetorum ( E.F. Linton)Aver, D Fuschii ( Druce)Soó , D Incarnata (L)Soó, Dactylorhiza x transiens ( Druce)Soó y Orchidactylorhiza x atacina ( P. Delforge) P. dELFORGE

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
No full textWe 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
