Lire une couverture, lire les attentes. Analyse de la couverture du roman Dans les bois éternels de Fred Vargas en France, Grèce et Italie
No full textLa couverture, « seuil » configuré par l’éditeur, entre le texte (et donc l’auteur) et le contexte (lecteurs/acheteurs), donne une idée du genre du livre et du type de public qu’il cherche à atteindre. Par ailleurs, elle offre une image différente du même texte en fonction de ceux qui croient être les interlocuteurs et créent différents réseaux de sens en raison des stratégies publicitaires et commerciales. Notre contribution propose une analyse des couvertures du roman policier Dans les bois éternels de Fred Vargas dans les différentes éditions parues en France, en Grèce et en Italie entre 2006 et 2012 (Hamy, Feryane, J’ai Lu, Synchronoi Orizontes, Einaudi)
Sans attendre le dévoilement du coupable. La lecture policière comme impatience générique
No full textThis article considers the repetition of the fake culprit scenario as an element of transition between two reading models: from the waiting for the unmasking of the culprit in nineteenth century detective fiction to the reader’s hermeneutic engagement in whodunit novels. Although expecting a surprising outcome, the repetition of the fake culprit script programs the reader’s impatience toward its fictional discourse. We thus read in the effort of identifying clues suggesting different scripts of guilt. The model of a fictional clue-seeking reader represented in A Study in Scarlet by Conan Doyle becomes effective as reading pragmatics in The Mystery of the Yellow Room by Gaston Leroux. With no more need of forms programming it, the interpretative effort of the reader to solve the case becomes a horizon of expectation in The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha ChristieL’article envisage la répétition du scénario du faux coupable comme élément de transition entre deux modèles de lecture : de l’attente du dévoilement dans le roman proto-policier du XIXe siècle à l’engagement interprétatif du lecteur du roman à énigme. Tout en gardant la surprise du dévoilement comme horizon d’attente, la répétition programme l’impatience du lecteur : on est ainsi à la recherche d’indices suggérant un scénario de culpabilité alternatif à celui du faux coupable. Le modèle de lecteur indiciaire représenté dans Une étude en rouge par Conan Doyle devient opérant en tant que pragmatique de lecture effective dans Le Mystère de la chambre jaune de Gaston Leroux. Sans plus besoin d’être programmée par aucune forme, la lecture indiciaire se présente en tant que compétence de lecture figée en horizon d’attente dans La Mystérieuse affaire de Styles par Agatha Christi
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
