Estudio y edición crítica de la traducción latina del libro VII de la Synopsis de Oribasio
Full text linkEl objetivo de esta tesis doctoral es ofrecer una edición crítica de la traducción latina del libro VII de la Synopsis de Oribasio, así como un análisis de las dos redacciones latinas, tradicionalmente conocidas como Aa y La, que conservan la traducción de este libro comparándolas entre ellas y con el texto griego.
Para la elaboración de la edición crítica se han leído con atención todos los manuscritos que transmiten el texto en sus dos versiones. En el caso de la redacción La, la lectura de un códice conservado en Stuttgart, Württembergische Landesbibliothek, H.B. XI. 8, aporta novedades y variantes de gran interés. En el aparato crítico se han incluido todas las variantes, incluso las ortográficas o fonéticas, ante la imposibilidad de determinar con seguridad si son resultado de la ignorancia de los copistas o si son testimonio del latín de la época de Oribasio. A esta decisión se une también la ausencia de homogeneidad en la reproducción del mismo término en cada uno de los códices, lo que impide hacer un inventario de determinadas formas propias de cada manuscrito, que posteriormente se ignorarían como variantes en el aparato. Todo esto da lugar a un aparato crítico muy denso, pero en todo caso, el texto que se presenta es muy riguroso y puede ser utilizado como punto de partida en posteriores estudios sobre el Oribasio latino.
En el apartado del Estudio se ofrece un análisis de aspectos comunes entre las dos redacciones, que coinciden en omitir los mismos fragmentos de texto griego, y también en añadir las mismas recetas latinas. Además se ha analizado cada una de las redacciones comparándola con el texto griego, y la conclusión es que, aunque parecen muy diferentes entre ellas, ya que La es más literal con respecto al griego que Aa, presentan muchas coincidencias que llevan a pensar que podrían ser dos estados diferentes de un texto original.
Uno de los aspectos más destacables del Estudio es la identificación de varias de las adiciones que transmiten ambas redacciones, aunque no ha sido posible poner un nombre a todas.
Por último, se ha dedicado un apartado al análisis de algunas de las peculiaridades lingüísticas del latín de Oribasio, que complementa los numerosos trabajos que ya existen sobre este campo
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

Las Gemas Uterinas y la Terapéutica de las Piedras en la Obra de Oribasio de Pérgamo
No full textUterine gems belong to a group of amulets, usually engraved on red minerals, such as jasper and carnelian; the most used is the hematite or “blood stone”. The iconography of the uterus in these gems refers to the mobility of the uterus, an idea already present in Plato's Timaeus (Pl., Ti. 91c.), and in the Greco-Roman medical texts, the wandering uterus theory. In this work we will complete the analysis of uterine gems with the use of stones as a therapeutic in the work of Oribasio de Pérgamo
