O pensar sobre decolonialidade, do ponto de vista da filha do colonizador, no “Caderno de Memórias Coloniais”, de Isabela Figueiredo: outros vieses
Full text linkThe work Notebook of colonial memories (2019), by Mozambican author Isabela Figueiredo, the subject of this study is a dense autobiographical text that presents a certain duality, on the part of the author, in relation to the process of colonization of the Portuguese colonies and the notion of decoloniality on which current authors have emphasized and have raised different approaches. We present this discussion, based on Adichie (2009); Lejeune (2009); Lerner (2019); Stevens (2014); Mignolo (2017); De Marco (2024) and Bento (2022), and we weave an approach from the perspective of Isabela Figueiredo's autobiographical authorial voice which presents, from two distinct phases of her life (in Mozambique and in Portugal), her vision of the process of domination imposed by slave owners, as well as the objectification of black subjects, especially women, and the naturalness with which Europeans established themselves as superior to them. It is a narrative that sometimes has traces of decoloniality, and sometimes, influenced by her father's Eurocentric concepts, the author tends to defend his attitudes, raising doubts about her ideological positioning. Our objective is to foster discussions about the unique bias of the History of the enslaved African people, shown from the colonizer's point of view, and to present the side of the oppressed, the subjugated, the objectified, whose labor force provided well-being and social prestige to the executioner.A obra Caderno de memórias coloniais (2019), da autora moçambicana Isabela Figueiredo, tema deste estudo, é um texto autobiográfico denso, e que apresenta certa dualidade, por parte da autora, em relação ao processo de colonização das colônias portuguesas e à noção de decolonialidade sobre a qual autores da atualidade têm dado ênfase e têm suscitado diversas abordagens. Apresentamos essa discussão, embasados em Adichie (2009); Lejeune (2009); Lerner (2019); Stevens (2014); Mignolo (2017); De Marco (2024) e Bento (2022), e tecemos uma abordagem sob a perspectiva da voz autoral autobiográfica de Isabela Figueiredo que apresenta, a partir de duas fases distintas de sua vida (em Moçambique e em Portugal), sua visão sobre o processo de dominação imposto pelos escravagistas, bem como a objetificação dos sujeitos negros, principalmente as mulheres, e a naturalidade com que os europeus se autoinstituíam superiores a eles. É uma narrativa que ora tem traços da decolonialidade, e ora, influenciada pelos conceitos eurocêntricos do pai, a autora tende a defender as atitudes dele, causando dúvidas sobre seu posicionamento ideológico. Nosso objetivo é fomentar discussões sobre o viés único da História do povo africano escravizado, mostrado pelo ponto de vista do colonizador, e apresentar o lado do oprimido, do subjugado, objetificado, cuja força de trabalho propiciou bem-estar e prestígio social ao algoz

EROTISMO E SEXUALIDADE COMO CONDIÇÃO EMANCIPATÓRIA NA POESIA DE GILKA MACHADO
Full text linkO intuito deste estudo é, por meio da análise de poemas de Gilka da Costa Melo Machado (1893-1980), formar novos olhares sobre a relação da mulher com o próprio corpo, desconstruir estereótipos e preconceitos sobre a expressão de sua sexualidade e ressignificar sua condição de “sujeito social”, ofuscada pela condição inferiorizada, atrelada à vida doméstica. Essa grande poetisa não aceitou a condição determinada à mulher pelo patriarcado e desvela em seus poemas os desejos femininos, em obra de formação simbolista, com forte apelo romântico e erótico. Propomos uma análise do teor erótico e da sexualidade reprimida da mulher, sob um retrospecto da História das mulheres, tendo como escopo teórico os pressupostos de Beauvoir (1970), Friedan (1971), Chauí (1985), Saffioti (1987), Kolontai (2008), Bourdieu (2017) a respeito das relações de gênero; de Gomes (1994) e Candido (1995) sobre literatura; e Foucault (1988) e Bataille (1987) sobre sexualidade
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
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
