Monete frazionate. Quadri regionali, questioni cronologiche, aspetti economici
No full textPresentazione del progetto di ricerca condotto dal DiSPaC dell'Università degli Studi di Salerno con l'Università Cattolica di Milano. Il progetto intende affrontare lo studio di una particolare categoria di monete, ossia quegli esemplari deliberatamente frammentati in due o più porzioni nel corso della loro circolazione, al fine di creare due o più monete di valore minore, in periodi di insufficiente approvvigionamento di nominali divisionali da parte delle zecche ufficiali

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
La Famiglia Hashemita e la Terra di Transgiordania
No full textLontana dall’immaginario europeo dell’Oriente islamico, la Giordania appare oggigiorno un paese restio a raccontarsi. Famosa nel mondo per la moderazione della famiglia regnante hashemita e per lo sviluppo della sua capitale Amman, ricca di testimonianze artistiche e archeologiche lasciate dalle principali civiltà e dagli imperi che dominarono il Vicino Oriente, la Giordania e la sua popolazione rimangono nonostante ciò sconosciuti per quanto concerne la loro storia più recente
IL FRAZIONAMENTO MONETALE IN EPOCA MODERNA: ESEMPLARI METALLICI E BANCONOTE
No full textThe practice of cutting coins into two or more portions runs through the whole history of coinage. It also concerns metallic coins and paper banknotes in modern times, where it is widespread and varied, with a documentary background un-thinkable for the ancient and medieval world. An overview of modern practice can only be very limited, given the vast area and the wide chronological range involved, the different systems and denominations on which it was carried out, and the societies that made use of it. But it can provide food for thought for scholars interested in ancient and medieval cut coins. In fact, the only evidence available
for these periods are the coin portions found at archaeological sites or preserved in public and private collections
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
