    Giancarlo De Carlo, in the introduction to the volume Il Palazzo di Federico da Montefeltro, 1985, edited by Maria Luisa Polichetti, speaks of Luciano Laurana and Francesco di Giorgio Martini as the “spirits” of the Palazzo. We cannot help but imagine De Carlo himself as a presence for the city, always present and alive through his project. In L’architettura della partecipazione he exposes how often the representation of architecture does not include the people who live in it; a custom whose origins the author traces back to the “individual monocentric vision” of the Renaissance perspective. Based on this consideration eight internationally renowned photographers, Urbino ISIA teachers, tell the story of De Carlo’s work in Urbino. These images tell the story of De Carlo in Urbino today. What interests us is their potential as a lesson for the present. Paola Binante, Luca Capuano, Mario Cresci, Paola De Pietri, Jason Fulford, Stefano Graziani, Armin Linke, Giovanna Silva, explore and recount the nature of this lesson through photography. Alongside their multiple perspectives is the performative work, carried out by the graphic designer Patrick Lacey and the artist Ben Cain, with the ISIA students and the narrations developed by the students of the Iuav University of Venice, together with Armin Linke, using photographic material from the archives. Besides curators’ texts, this book includes contributions by Roberta Valtorta, with respect to the long-term relationship between architecture and photography, by Mirko Zardini, on De Carlo’s relationship with the city of Urbino, and by Sara Marini, on the architect’s textual production

    Fra rabbia e 'vergogna della poesia'. I primi dieci anni

    Teatrante fra i più significativi della scena contemporanea italiana, attore- autore di grande intensità e rigore stilistico, Claudio Morganti divide per dieci anni il palcoscenico con Alfonso Santagata, nella Compagnia Katzenmacher. Il saggio, che costituisce il secondo capitolo della monografia dedicata a Morganti, ripercorre le tappe fondamentali del sodalizio fra i due teatranti, dal 1980 al 1992, e i primi anni del percorso solitario di Morganti. L'analisi degli spettacoli, condotta attraverso le testimonianze del tempo e quelle raccolte in occasione di questa pubblicazione, delinea il profilo di un artista la cui ricerca è fin dai suoi esordi tesa fra l'eredità della stagione dell'avanguardia degli anni Sessanta e il nuovo panorama culturale e artistico degli anni Ottanta; fra un'approfondimento dell'arte dell'attore e un lavoro attento e artigianale su tutte le altre componenti dello spettacolo; fra la drammaturgia contemporanea e personalissime riscritture di quella shakespeariana

    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

    Full text link
    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
