Тhе influence of immigrants on the development of cultural conditions in the Roman province of Macedonia
No full textU radu se raspravlja o stanovništvu rimske provincije Makedonije, tj. o odnosu domorodaca i stranaca, na osnovi antroponimije epigrafskih izvora i ikonografskih motiva na nadgrobnim spomenicima (kao najbrojnijem vidu epigrafskih spomenika) koji su, tipološki rizvrstani po oblastima Gornje Makedonije. Nadgrobrni spomenici Donje Makedonije korišteni su kao komparativni materijal jer ne samo što nedostaju epigrafski korpusi već najtešće nisu objavljeni sa svim potrebnim podacima ralevantnim za ovakvo istraživanje.
Detaljnom analizom pobijena je teza o keltskoj pripadnosti nosioca stela tzv. Kavadarskog stila, kao i teze o njihovom vezom sa Atisom i Menom. Antroponimija i ikonografija tzv. Kavadarskih stela ne daju nikakvih osnova za takva mišljenja. Onomastika pokazuje da se radi o domorodcima (Pajonci) koji su od svih oblasti najviše podlegli romanizaciji zahvaljujući rimskom elementu u Stobskom opidumu. I pored toga nisu se odrekli svojih starih verovanja i kultova. Ni u jednoj oblasti nisu se u toj meri održala lokalna verovanja koja su našla svoj izraz na nadgrobnim spomenicima, što je dovelo do formiranja samo njima svojstvenim ikonografskim rešenjima. Reč je o kultu sunca o kome postoja podaci i u narativnim izvorima. Osim kod Pajonaca kult sunca je u manjoj meri izražen i na nadgrobnim spomenicima drugih oblasti (Linkestida i Pelagonrija) u kojima je izraženo jedno drugo lokalno verovanje, a to je kult heroiziranog pokojnika izražen ikonografskom šemom tzv. tračkog konjanika. Strani uticaji nisu uspeli da istisnu lokalna
verovanja. Jedino se u Pelagoniji i Linkestidi zasada, sreće pojava interpretatio romana kulta heroiziranog pokojnika koji se umesto šemom tzv. tračkog konjanika sada izražava bistama.
Najbrojniji stranci rimskog doba u G. Makedoniji su rimski doseljenici koji su bili privuičeni prvenstveno plodnošču zemlje, za razliku od primorskih gradova D. Makedonije koji su privukii
više trgovaca kako sa Zapada tako iz М. Azije, o čemu .svedoče razni etnikoni. Sudeći po broju otkrivenih vojničkih natpisa čak i veterani su više voleli da se naseljavaju u gradovima D. Makedonije u kojima je rimski element bio brojniji.
Jedino strani kultovi pokazuju prevagu istočnih nad rimskim tj.zapadnim kultovima što je rezultat njihove ranije penetracije i odredjene ukorenjenosti, što se posebno odnosi na egipatske kultove.The thesis is dealing with the structure of population in the Roman Province of Macedonia, that is, the relationship between the natives and newcomers on the basis of the anthroponyms found on inscriptions and iconographic motives of the tombstones, which belong to the most numerous group of epigraphic sources and are typologically classified by the regions of Upper Macedonia. The tombstones of Lower Macedonia are only used as a comparative material because the epigraphic corpora are not only missing but when tombstones are very publisched they are very often publisched without relevent data necessary for such investigation.
The thesis about the Celtic origin of the stelai carriers belonging to the so-called Kavadarci style by a detailes analysis is refuted, as well the thesis about their connections with Attis and Men. The anthroponyms and iconography of the so-called Kavadarci stelai do not support this consideration. Onomastics shows that their carriers are the natives (Paiones) who were romanized mostly when compared with the other regions of Upper Macedonia, as a result of the presence of Roman elements in Stobi oppidum. Besides the romanization, they did not renounce their beliefs and cults. There is no other area found where the local beliefs have persisted and were expressed found where the local beliefs have persisted and were expressed on the tombstones to such extent which has led to the creation of iconographic solutions typical only of them. Primarily, it is a cult of the Sun which data could be found in literary sources. The cult of the Sun existed not only in Paionia but it was also present in a small extent on the tombstones from Lyncestis and Pelagonia. In these regions another local belief is more emphasized i,e. the cult of heroized dead person expressed by the iconographic scheme of the so-called Thracian horseman. The foreign influence did not succed to overwhalm the local beliefs. The scheme of the so-called Thracian horseman by interpretatio romana was replaced by busts which have been so far recorded only in Pelagonia and Lynkestis.
The most, numerous foreigners in Upper Macedonia during the Roman times were the Roman immigrants who had been primarily attracted by fertile soil. Тће coast towns of Lower Macedonia, on the contrary, were more interesting for the merchants from the West as well from Asia Minor, as it can be concluded on the basis of various ethnics collected on the inscriptions. According to the numerous military inscriptions, even the veterans preferres to settle in the towns of Lower Macedonia where the Roman element was more common.
Among the foreign cults the Easter-n cults prevailed over the Roman ones i.e. West cults, which resulted from their earlier penetration and rootage. This refers especially to the Egyptian cults
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
