Русское литературное пространство после 24 февраля 2022 года: «отмена» или «самоотмена»?
The article explores the influence of geopolitical events on the perception of Russian literature following Russia’s fullscale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. It delves into the evolving reception of Russian literature, highlighting thephenomena of its “cancellation” and “self-cancellation” — dynamics rooted both in the Russian cultural landscape andthe self-reflection of Russian émigré writers. The author argues for characterizing Russian literature’s (self)image as a refracted image, shaped by feedback loops and recursive (self)perception. Additionally, the article examines the primary mechanisms for selecting representatives and texts of contemporary Russian literature, which hinge on their acceptability or unacceptability within specific contexts.Artykuł bada wpływ wydarzeń geopolitycznych na percepcję literatury rosyjskiej po rozpoczęciu pełnej inwazji Rosji na Ukrainę w lutym 2022 roku. Analiza zmian w pozycji recepcyjnej literatury rosyjskiej koncentruje się na zjawiskach jej „unieważnienia”, a także „samounieważnienia”, związanych z procesami zachodzącymi w samym rosyjskim środowisku kulturowym oraz w autorefleksji rosyjskich pisarzy emigracyjnych. Przedstawiono argumenty na rzecz scharakteryzowania (samo)obrazu literatury rosyjskiej jako obrazu załamanego, który powstaje w wyniku pętli sprzężenia zwrotnego i rekurencyjnego (samo)postrzegania literatury rosyjskiej. Rozważane są również główne mechanizmy selekcji przedstawicieli i tekstów współczesnej literatury rosyjskiej, które opierają się na opozycji ich akceptowalności/nieakceptowalności w określonym kontekście.В статье рассматривается воздействие геополитических событий на восприятие русской литературы после начала полномасштабного вторжения России в Украину в феврале 2022 года. В анализе изменений рецептивной позиции русской литературы акцент делается на феномены ее «отмены», а также «самоотмены», связанной с процессами внутри самой российской культурной среды и в саморефлексии российских эмигрантских писателей. Приводятся аргументы в пользу характеристики (само)образа русской литературы как преломленного (refracted) образа, который формируется в результате работы «петель обратной связи» (feedback loops) и рекурсивного (само)восприятия русской литературы. Также рассматриваются основные механизмы селекции представителей и текстов современной русской литературы, в основе которых видится оппозиция их приемлемости/неприемлемости в конкретном контексте

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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
The Alienated Homeland in Sasha Filipenko’s «The Former Son»
Sasha Filipenko’s The Former Son – a book written in Russian about contemporary Belarus – was published in 2014 in Russia to critical acclaim. The following paper will study the elements of hybridity in the novel and the ways Filipenko models the sense of alienation from one’s homeland through characterization and the depiction of physical spaces
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

Manifestations of "Bilingualism" in Contemporary Belarusian Prose
This paper examines the various manifestations of bilingualism in the contemporary Belarusian literary field, with a particular focus on the works of Hanna Jankuta (Čas pustazeľlja), Saša Filipenka (Byvšyj syn, Kremuljator, Slon), and Viktar Marcinovič (Mova). It traces the historical development of Belarusian bilingualism and its complex connection to questions of national identity and cultural politics in post-Soviet Belarus. The study highlights how these historical and ideological tensions have contributed to a persistent stratification within the literary community, where language choice is often an ideological or identity choice. The analysis argues that the bi- and even multilingual writing strategies, including code-switching and code-mixing between Russian, Belarusian and trasjanka, as well as translation strategies, serve several functions: they can provide access to different literary markets, act as markers of symbolic resistance or exoticization, and reflect a conscious process of identity seeking and (re)building.Il saggio analizza diverse manifestazioni del bilinguismo nel panorama letterario bielorusso contemporaneo, concentrandosi in particolare sulle opere di Hanna Jankuta (Čas pustazeĺlja), Saša Filipenka (Byvšyj syn, Kremuljator, Slon) e Viktar Marcinovič (Mova). Si ricostruiscono lo sviluppo storico del bilinguismo bielorusso e la sua complessa connessione con questioni di identità nazionale e di politica culturale nella Bielorussia post-sovietica. Lo studio mette in luce come tali tensioni storiche e ideologiche abbiano contribuito a una persistente stratificazione all’interno della comunità letteraria, in cui la scelta della lingua è spesso anche una scelta identitaria o ideologica. L’analisi sostiene che le strategie di scrittura bi- e persino plurilingue — tra cui il code-switching e il code-mixing tra russo, bielorusso e trasjanka, nonché le strategie traduttive — assolvono a diverse funzioni: possono garantire l’accesso a mercati letterari differenti, agire come segni di resistenza simbolica o di esotizzazione, e riflettere un consapevole processo di ricerca e (ri)costruzione identitaria
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
