Colonial echoes to contemporary resilience - A Case of Nainital as a Tourism Refuge
No full textThe early history of Nainital is deeply rooted in the Kumaon region’s past, with influences from various dynasties such as the Katyuri and Chand. Nainital’s importance grew significantly during the British colonial era. The British rule in the Kumaon Hills post the Anglo-Nepalese War (1814-16) led to the establishment of Nainital as a hill station in 1841 by P. Barron, a sugar trader (Hāndā 2002). This period marked the beginning of its transformation into a popular health resort for British soldiers and colonial officials, a place to escape the heat of the Indian plains (Sacareau 2007; Bhattacharya 2021; Nag 1999). Notably, the town suffered a catastrophic landslide in 1880, which brought significant changes to its landscape and development (Sharma 2021). Nainital’s architecture reflects its colonial past with landmarks like the Governor’s House and St. John’s Church (Shah 1999). These structures, alongside other historic buildings, contribute significantly to the town’s charm and serve as reminders of its rich colonial history. Nainital’s transformation over the years has been largely driven by tourism. It has evolved from a colonial retreat to a major destination for domestic and international tourists (Nag 1999). Today, the town’s economy relies heavily on tourism, with various activities centered around the Naini Lake and a host of cultural and historical landmarks attracting visitors (Bisht and Choudhuri, n.d.; Lad 2020). The diverse culinary scene, vibrant markets, and numerous yearly festivals reflect the town’s rich socio-economic tapestry . Today, Nainital is more than just a tourist spot; it’s a refuge for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of urban life. Its serene landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and spiritual significance offer a peaceful and rejuvenating retreat. The town’s natural beauty and tranquil environment make it an ideal destination for relaxation and contemplation
Kajian Musthalah Kitab Nuzhat an-Nazhar Fi Taudih Nukhbat al-Fikar di Ma’had Darul Hadis Khadimus Sunnah Bandung
Get PDFThis paper examines the book of Musthalah al-Hadith, the book of Nuzhat an-Nazhar Fi Taudih Nukhbat al-Fikar which was studied in Ma\u27had Darul Hadith Khadimus Sunnah Bandung. This paper aims to introduce the book of turots in the field of hadith science or Musthalahat al-Hadith with the object of the book Nuzhat an-Nazhar Fi Taudih Nukhbat al-Fikar by al-Hafidz Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani. And know how the methods used by the Institute of Ma\u27had Darul Hadith Khadimus Sunnah in studying and teaching the book of Nuzhat an-Nazhar and how to implement it. Using derifrifyive research methods, this study proves that the book of Nuzhat an-Nazhar is a systematic book of Musthalah al-Hadith and uses its own manhaj in the arrangement of its chapters. So that the book is used as a backrest or reference of scholars afterwards in compiling books in the field of hadith science and becomes the first gate for hadith students in studying hadith science. The methods used by Ma\u27had Darul Hadith Khadimus Sunnah in studying the book are the Nazhari and Tathbiqi methods in the form of Talaqi, Mulazamah and Munaqasyah. In its implementation, the students are able to understand the materials studied and can analyze the hadith of both sanad and matan analysis as evidenced in the final task that is in the form of takhrij hadith
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
