Dati per una nuova lettura dell'area dei Quattro Tempietti e della Domus di Apuleio nel loro rapporto con il teatro di Ostia antica
Il settore preso in esame si colloca nella Regio II di Ostia ed è delimitato a sud dal cd. Decumano Massimo, ad est dal Teatro e dal Piazzale delle Corporazioni, a nord da un’area non scavata di cui non è noto il potenziale archeologico e ad ovest dal complesso dei Grandi Horrea: il nucleo principale è costituito dai Quattro Tempietti Repubblicani e dal piazzale ad essi antistante, da un complesso di tabernae affacciate verso il Decumano, dalla Domus di Apuleio, ubicata nell’angolo Nord-Est, dal Mitreo delle Sette Sfere e da un presunto impianto industriale posto nel settore occidentale.
Si tratta di una delle aree più antiche della colonia ostiense, ma anche una delle più complesse in quanto, in uno spazio ristretto e ben delimitato, si giustappongono una serie di edifici con pianta e funzioni differenti, i cui rapporti, sia in termini strutturali che cronologici, non risultano di facile lettura. Strutture di tecniche edilizie varie e con piani di spiccato posti a quote non omogenee, che testimoniano una frequentazione dell’area dall’età repubblicana a quella tardo antica, si mostrano infatti ora in una visione sincronica che non lascia presagire l’antico sviluppo planovolumetrico dei singoli monumenti.
L’analisi autoptica dei resti, il rilevamento tramite le moderne tecnologie di fotogrammetria e 3d laser scanning survey, integrato, per le parti oggi interrate, con la documentazione redatta da Italo Gismondi agli inizi del ‘900, e l’interpretazione dei dati raccolti nei giornali di scavo hanno permesso di giungere ad un’analisi complessiva dell’area, nelle sue varie fasi edilizie, e di delineare l’impatto che il lavori di costruzione e di ristrutturazione del teatro ebbero, sia da un punto di vista urbanistico che architettonico, su questo settore della città
Il paesaggio storico ai margini orientali della piana campana in periodo annibalico. Osservazioni topografiche dalle ricerche per la Carta archeologica della Campania.
The paper focuses on the territories on the est margins of the piana campana in the years of the annibal wars, in particular during the Second Punic War.
The results of a topographic research carried out in this area show useful data for the reconstruction of the historical landscape in those years and the ancient road system that crosses the area.
The author by employing archaeological data, analyze olso the role of Suessola montains quoted from Livius during the attempts of conquest of Nola by Hannibal in 216-214 BC
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
We 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
