No full text本稿は、日本語とイタリア語の主題についての対照研究を目的とするものであるが、主題に関する研究においては、文レベルの主題を含む構文を対象とするものと、機能を重視するものがありこの両方のアプローチが有機的に補いあわなければならない。また、。同時に、特に対照研究においては主題を表す手段として、それが形態的、文法的、音性的手段のうちどれを主要なものとしているかというテーマとも関連付ける必要性がある。本小論ではこのうち日本語とイタリア語における主題歌に関してその文構造を中心に統語的観点から対照し、そこに共通の派生操作が存在するかを分析する
Introduction
Full text linkJapan’s ecological variety seems to parallel the multitude of different languages and
dialects attested in the Japanese archipelago. In addition to standard Japanese and
its dialects, there exist other Japonic languages such as Ryūkyūan and Hachijō, as well
as non-Japonic varieties like Ainu. In this volume, four articles explore the importance
of a philological approach to sources for historical linguistics: “Adopting a Philological
Approach Toward Chishi (地誌)” by Étienne Baudel; “Elements of Sakhalin Ainu Pho-
netics, Phonology, and Morphosyntax in Bronisław Piłsudski’s Corpus of Ainu Folk-
lore” by Elia Dal Corso; “The Language of Miyako Oral Traditions” by Aleksandra Ja-
rosz; “Reflexes of Proto-Ryukyuan Mid Vowels in Haedong Chegukki” by Marc Miya
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
Philological and Linguistic Analysis Working Together. Exploring Language Diversity in Japan
Full text linkJapan’s ecological variety seems to parallel the multitude of different languages and
dialects attested in the Japanese archipelago. In addition to standard Japanese and
its dialects, there exist other Japonic languages such as Ryūkyūan and Hachijō, as well
as non-Japonic varieties like Ainu. In this volume, four articles explore the importance
of a philological approach to sources for historical linguistics: “Adopting a Philological
Approach Toward Chishi (地誌)” by Étienne Baudel; “Elements of Sakhalin Ainu Pho-
netics, Phonology, and Morphosyntax in Bronisław Piłsudski’s Corpus of Ainu Folk-

Elements of Sakhalin Ainu Phonetics, Phonology, and Morphosyntax in Bronisław Piłsudski’s Corpus of Ainu Folklore
Full text linkIn this paper the author focuses on a number of linguistic features of East Sakhalin Ainu dialects. The language data for this study comes from a collection of traditional Ainu folklore elicited in 1903‐04 and published as Materials for the Study of the Ainu Language and Folklore by Bronisław Piłsudski in 1912. The observations on phonetics, phonology, and morphosyntax will be discussed in light of more recent data coming from West Sakhalin Ainu dialects collected in the 1960s‐1970s. This will allow for a brief consideration of the dialectal differences occurring between the two dialect subgroups as well as of the possible path of language development that took place during the 60‐70 years that separate the two sources. The aim of the author is to highlight how a thorough descriptive work on old sources of an indigenous, minority language like Ainu can give to East Asian historical linguistics and to linguistic typology more generally
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
