Är Pippi Långstrump verkligen en rasist? : En raskritisk läsning av Pippi i Söderhavet
No full textPippi Långstrump är en välkänd karaktär som har förgyllt många generationer med sin karismatiska personlighet. Böckerna om Pippi Långstrump har skapat en hel del reaktioner, Framförallt har böckerna skapat kritik kring rasismen kopplat till kolonialismens ideologi. I denna uppsats analyseras Pippi i Söderhavet (Lindgren,1946) utifrån ett raskritiskt perspektiv. Syftet med uppsatsen är att belysa hur rasismen gestaltas i boken samt undersöka enskilda yttranden i massmedia om Pippi Långstrump kopplat till rasism. I uppsatsen undersöks även karaktärerna i boken ur ett vithetskritiskt perspektiv. Metoden är närläsning av Pippi i Söderhavet (Lindgren,1946) med fokus på hur karaktärerna beskrivs i förhållande till rasismen samt hur de enskilda yttrandena i media uppfattar Astrid Lindgrens berättande om Pippi Långstrump. Uppsatsen innehåller även en jämförande analys av boken och de utvalda artiklarna. Analysens slutsatser om Pippi i Söderhavet (Lindgren,1946) landar i att det finns passager som ärrasistiska och är kopplade till kolonialismen. Pippi i Söderhavet (Lindgren,1946) använder sig av kolonialismens ideologi genom att undersåtar är svarta och makthavarna är vita.

Estimation of vegetation photochemical processes: an application of the photochemical reflectance index at the San Rossore test site

No full textLo studio qui presentato ha lo scopo di testare nuove metodologie per il rilevamento della concentrazione di azoto fogliare (N) a livello di copertura. In particolare sono state messe a confronto due tecniche differenti basate sul remote sensing: la prima basata sulle lunghezze d’onda dello SWIR (Short Wave Infra-Red) e la seconda sul NIR (Near Infra-Red). La possibilità di stimare la concentrazione fogliare di N dalla riflettanza nel NIR è stata dimostrata da recenti studi su foreste temperate e boreali (Ollinger et al., 2008; Hollinger et al., 2009) utilizzando immagini MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer), poco idonee all’alta variabilità spaziale del territorio italiano. Per ottenere dati SWIR è stato utilizzato un volo aereo MIVIS (Multispectral Infrared and Visible Imaging Spectrometer) effettuato nel giugno 2000 sull’area di studio del Parco Naturale di San Rossore, Pisa (Italia); mentre, per il NIR, si sono utilizzate immagini Landsat 7 ETM+ (Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus) riprese nello stesso periodo ed interessanti la stessa zona. La riflettanza di copertura stimata da immagini telerilevate è stata poi messa in relazione a rilievi a terra eseguiti sempre nel giugno 2000
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
