    O presente estudo consiste em um comentário exegético-teológico da perícope Ap 21,1- 8 que prioriza a análise sincrônica sob a perspectiva de uma leitura narrativa do texto. O gênero literário apocalíptico adotado pelo autor do Apocalipse é fruto desses grupos minoritários que se expressam sua visão de mundo por meio de uma literatura simbólica. A linha hermenêuticoteológica adotada é aquela segundo a qual o autor do Apocalipse aponta para os acontecimentos de seu tempo, utilizando-se de uma linguagem simbólica para exortar as comunidades cristãs da Ásia Menor a resistirem à imposição cultural-religiosa e sócio-política que coloca em risco a identidade cristã. A leitura narrativa da perícope Ap 21,1-8 permitiu analisar o enredo do livro do Apocalipse e a importância do sentido teológico desse texto no contexto literário da trama tecida pelo autor ao longo da obra. O cenário é um dos elementos centrais de um texto narrativo. A cena de abertura do livro do Apocalipse, em continuidade com os escritos neotestamentários, coloca Jesus Cristo como o personagem principal deste relato. Ele veio para, com seu sangue, salvar a humanidade dos pecados dela. A visão do novo céu e da nova terra chega ao seu clímax; Deus e o Cordeiro estabelecem sua tenda na Cidade Santa, e todos os ouvintes e leitores são convidados a contemplar essa nova realidade, tomando ativamente parte desta grande narrativa e tornando-se coabitantes da Cidade Santa e herdeiros da promessa divina aos vencedores, que resistiram às propostas enganosas e idolátricas propostas pelo poder imperial da BestaThe present study consists of an Exegetical-theological commentary on the perícope of Rev 21:1-8, which prioritizes a synchronic analysis under the perspective of a narrative Reading of the text. The apocalyptic literary genre adopted by the author of the Apocalypse is the result of these minority groups expressing their worldview through Symbolic literature. The following three chapter respectively address the syntax, the theological semantics, and narrative elements of the text. The adopted hermeneutical-theological approach is one in which the author of Revelation points to the events of his time, using Symbolic language to exhort the Christian Communities of Asia Minor to resist the cultural-religious and socio-political imposition that threatens their Christian identity. The narrative reading of the pericope Rev 21:1-8 allowed for an analysis of the plot of the Book of Revelation and the theological significance of this text within the literary context of the narrative woven by the author throughout the work. The setting is one of the central elements of a narrative text. The opening scene of the Book of Revelation, in continuity with the New Testament writings, places Jesus Christ as the main character of this account. He came to save humanity from its sins with His blood. In the vision of the new heaven and the new earth, symbolized by the celestial city of Jerusalem, John’s narrative reaches its climax, for after removing evil from the earth, God and the Lamb establish their dwelling in the holy city, where all listeners and readers are invited to contemplate this new reality, taking an active part in this grand narrative, becoming co-inhabitants of the holy city, and heirs of God’s promise to the victors who resisted the deceptive and idolatrous proposals propagated by the imperial power of the beastCoordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior – CAPE

    As Parábolas do Reino: um estudo exegético de Lc 13,18-21

    Durante o seu ministério, Jesus anunciou o Reino de Deus por meio de Palavras e ações. As vezes escolheu revelar por meio de parábolas, os mistérios do Reino. Lucas recolhendo dados da Tradição, inseriu as parábolas do Reino no contexto literário da grande narrativa da viagem. Ademais, a composição gramatical de Lc 13,18-21 está interligada com o episódio precedente, a cura da mulher encurvada (Lc13,10-17). A inter-relação entre narrativa da cura da mulher na sinagoga em dia de sábado com o discurso parabólico, permite estabelecer uma continuidade entre a ação libertadora de Jesus com o ensinamento acerca do Reino de Deus. Segundo a abordagem pragmática linguística em chave comunicativa, destaca-se a força performativa daqueles que se deixam transformar pela mensagem das parábolas, se colocando no caminho do discipulado e tomando parte nas ações de Jesus para que o Reino de Deus se expande em todos os lugares. As parábolas são um convite para que o leitor-discípulo entre na dinâmica do homem que semeia e da mulher que faz o pão, porque acolhe e identifica os sinais do Reino presente nas ações que Jesus realizaJesus spoke about the Kingdom of God by words and actions, during his ministry. Sometimes He did choose reveal the misteries of the Kingdom through Parables. Luke, collecting the data o tradition, inserted the Kingdom’s Parables in the literary context of the travel narrative. Moreover, the grammatical composition of Lk 13:18-21 is interconnected with the previous episode, the healing of the crippled woman (Lk 13:10-17). The interrelation between the narratives of the crippled woman in the synagoge on Sabbath day with the parabolic account, allows establishing a continuity relationship between the liberating actions performed by Jesus with his teaching. According to the Pragmatic linguistics approach in comunicative clue, its highlighted the performative power from those who let themselves to be transformed the parables’s Message seting themselves on the way of discipleship and taking part in Jesus’s actions in order to spread out the Kingdom of God in everywhere. The Parables are an invitation to the disciple-reader get in the dynamics of the man who sows and the woman who makes the bread, because is able to wellcome and identify the signs of the Kingdom in Jesus deedsAliança de Misericordia – ADVENIA

    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

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    No full text
    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
