    Book review: the sociology of intellectuals: after 'the existentialist moment' by Simon Susen and Patrick Baert

    No full text
    With The Sociology of Intellectuals: After 'The Existentialist Moment', Simon Susen and Patrick Baert make a collaborative effort to build upon Baert’s preceding book, The Existentialist Moment, in order to offer a new set of theoretical and methodological tools for considering the emergence of intellectuals and the constructive social and political role that they can play. While largely a book review-and-reply exercise, the book contains flashes of excellence, finds Sarah Burton, and will hopefully act as a spur for wider conversations aimed at developing a sensitive and fine-grained programme for the sociology of intellectuals

    Book review: the existentialist moment: the rise of Sartre as a public intellectual by Patrick Baert

    How did Jean-Paul Sartre emerge from relative obscurity to become the embodiment of the public intellectual? In The Existentialist Moment: The Rise of Sartre as a Public Intellectual, Patrick Baert traces Sartre’s rise, situating his growing reputation within the context of the political and intellectual landscape of post-war France. David Grunner hails this as a significant and praiseworthy contribution to scholarship that will not only deepen understandings of Sartre as an individual, but also of the contemporary role of the public intellectual

    Globalizing Gramsci: The Resuscitation of a Repressed Intellectual

    No full text
    In the last four decades the name of Gramsci has spread well beyond the boundaries of Italian political theory and Marxist thought where it was originally confined, reaching disciplinary fields as diverse as literary criticism, sociology, communication studies, anthropology, international relations, history, and linguistics, and countries as far from Italy as Korea, India, and South Africa. Why this success and still before how this success has been possible? What social conditions had to be fulfilled to have Gramsci recognized as such a key author in so many intellectual fields and regions of the world? Making use of an exceptional data set, i.e. the Gramscian Bibliography created and managed by the “Gramsci institute” in Rome, which encompasses more than 19 thousands items (books, journal articles, conference proceedings about Gramsci, as well as the whole Gramscian production including translations and different editions), our research aims at tracing the global diffusion of Gramsci’s work in Italy and out of it since the 1940s, identifying patterns, trajectories, timing, agents, and modes of its reception in different national contexts and languages. Focusing on both translations of Gramscian texts and critical writings on and about Gramsci, the chapter will provide quantitative data about the global circulation of a thought whose international success has been certainly favored by Marxist internationalism and the Italian geopolitical location after WWII, but also hampered by the original language and the textual genres (private letters and personal notebooks written while in prison) in which it was embedded, as well as the strong national focus and disarming fragmentation of its content. We suggest that all these seemingly negative conditions exerted indeed a positive effect on the reception process, allowing for highly selective (and idiosyncratic) local appropriations, flexibility in publishing strategies, and the building of context-specific consecration strategies

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Get PDF
    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
