    Châteaubleau : la tuile gauloise de neuf lignes

    No full text
    Châteaubleau : The Gaulish tile with nine lines. Found in July 2017, this tile inscribed with nine lines was reused to pave the bottom of a trough for slaking lime, around 200 AD. The finding spot is close to the Grands Jardins, which provided the eleven-line tile in 1997. But the new inscribed tile has not been kept in its entirety, missing nearly all the left half of the text. The writing of this tile closely resembles that of the 1997 one : SS is used for the affricate. We however noticed a new letter form, seemingly a variant of -t- used only after vowel -i-. We can also distinguish two different scribes, “ scribe Z” and “ scribe tau”, thus named according to the form they use for this variant of -t-. Our interpretation recovers some calques from Latin : logitu, perhaps equivalent to Latin locatos “ let” ; figlitati, an abstract derived from the Latin noun for “ potter”, figulus ; suesanu, probably derived from the ordinal suexos “ sixth”, referring maybe to a fraction of the revenues paid back by the tenant. It is suggested that the text may be either a regulation particular to potters, or a lease contract for installing or running a tilery. This contract begins with a man name (Auedo Canio), and ends with a place name (en Epodore Core), the latter being, together with other important stipulations, written by “ scribe tau”.Trouvée en juillet 2017, cette tuile inscrite sur neuf lignes a servi à former le dallage d’un bac à chaux, vers 200 apr. J.-C. Le lieu de la découverte est peu éloigné des Grands Jardins, où avait été trouvée la tuile de onze lignes en 1997. Mais la nouvelle tuile n’a pas été conservée entière, il manque presque toute la moitié gauche du texte. Pour l’écriture, cette tuile ressemble beaucoup à celle de 1997 : emploi du SS pour l’affriquée. On relève cependant un signe nouveau, qui paraît être une variante de -t- employée seulement après la voyelle -i-. On peut d’ailleurs distinguer deux scribes différents, le «scribe Z » et le «scribe tau» , ainsi appelés pour la façon qu’ils ont d’écrire le -t- après -i-. L’interprétation isole des formes calquées sur le latin : logitu, équivalent peut-être du latin locatos «loués» ; figlitati, dérivé abstrait formé sur le nom latin du potier, figulus ; suesanu, sans doute dérivé de l’ordinal suexos «sixième » et désignant peut-être la fraction des bénéfices reversée par le locataire. Il est suggéré que le texte soit une disposition particulière aux potiers, ou bien un contrat de location pour l’installation ou la gestion d’une tuilerie. Ce contrat commence par un nom d’homme (Auedo Canio) et se termine par un nom de lieu (en Epodore Core), ce dernier étant, comme d’autres mentions importantes, écrit par le «scribe tau».Lambert Pierre-Yves, Pilon Fabien.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    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 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

    Le Mercure Solitumaros de Châteaubleau (Seine-et-Marne) : Lugus macrophtalme, visionnaire et guérisseur

    At Châteaubleau (Seine-et-Marne), Gallo-Roman site of several sanctuaries of native tradition, a variety of objects were found - a patera with an inscription, a bronze statuette, a coin and an anatomical ex-voto - related to Mercurius Solitumarus, a Gallic deity, whose name was romanized and means "with great sight" or "the all-seeing". To illustrate this epithet the archaeological evidences show this god with enlarged eyes. A comparison with other Gallic and Gallo-Roman representations and parallels in the literature of Irish mythology suggest that this Mercurius of Châteaubleau is identical with Lugus, the omnicompetent god of the Celts, who is endowed with visionary power. Occasionally Lugus is also health-giving god, especially for ophtalmic diseases.Le site gallo-romain de Châteaubleau (Seine-et-Marne) abrite plusieurs sanctuaires de tradition indigène qui ont fourni divers objets - patere inscrite, statuette en bronze, monnaie, ex-voto anatomique liés une divinité gauloise romanisée sous le nom de Mercurius Solitumarus. Cette épithète, qui signifie "à la grande vue", "qui voit tout", est illustrée par les yeux hypertrophiés du dieu figuré sur les documents archéologiques concernés. Un rapprochement avec autres représentations gauloises et gallo-romaines, ainsi que des parallèles tirés de la mythologie irlandaise, permettent identifier le Mercure de Châteaubleau à Lugus, dieu omnicompétent des Celtes doté de capacités visionnaires. Lugus est également, à l'occasion un dieu médecin qui présente une affinité particulière avec la guérison des maladies oculaires.Hollard Dominique, Gricourt Daniel, Pilon Fabien.

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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
