    En términos generales, en la investigación se relacionan sistemáticamentela teoría cultural y filosófica de la cultura visualcon un diversos textos literarios. En este sentido, se abordael término de ¨mirada en tensión¨ pensado en el cruce de losestudios culturales y el arte con la literatura. La investigacióntiene en cuenta las nociones de narración (Ricoeur), de lector-espectador (Zumthor; Crary), de percepción sensible (fenomenología)y la mirada en tensión (Foucault, Crary, Benjamin).El resultado de estas convergencias define las narrativasculturales como expresiones particulares de la contemporaneidad,que nacen de procesos de vanguardias o de rupturaen los cuales texto e imagen se juntan y yuxtaponen. Estasnarrativas se circunscriben en el mapa literario a través de lasexpresiones que configuran experiencias de lectura basadasen percepciones sensibles.Fil: Caminada Rossetti, Lucia.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Long-Term Follow-Up Study of Temporary Tricuspid Valve Detachment as Approach to VSD Repair without Consequent Tricuspid Dysfunction

    Temporary tricuspid valve detachment improves the operative view of certain congenital ventricular septal defects (VSDs), but its long-term effects on tricuspid valve function are still debated. From 2002 through 2012, we performed a prospective study of 68 children (mean age, 1.28 ± 1.01 yr) who underwent transatrial closure of VSDs following temporary tricuspid valve detachment. Sixty patients had conoventricular and 8 had mid-muscular VSDs. All were in sinus rhythm. Seventeen patients had systemic pulmonary artery pressures. Preoperative echocardiograms showed trivial-to-mild tricuspid regurgitation in 62 patients and tricuspid dysplasia with severe regurgitation in 6 patients. Patients were clinically and echocardiographically monitored at 30 postoperative days, 3 months, 6 months, every 6 months thereafter for the first 2 years, and then once a year. No in-hospital or late death was observed at the median follow-up evaluation of 5.9 years. Mean intensive care unit and hospital stays were 1.6 ± 1.1 and 7.3 ± 2.7 days, respectively. Residual small VSDs occurred in 3 patients, and temporary atrioventricular block in one. After VSD repair, 62 patients (91%) had trivial or mild tricuspid regurgitation, and 6 moderate. Five of these last had severe tricuspid regurgitation preoperatively and had undergone additional tricuspid valve repair during the procedure. The grade of residual tricuspid regurgitation remained stable postoperatively, and no tricuspid stenosis was documented. All patients were in New York Heart Association class I at follow-up. Temporary tricuspid valve detachment is a simple and useful method for a complete visualization of certain VSDs without incurring substantial tricuspid dysfunction

    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 link
    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

    Animalidade e estética de excessos na literatura argentina

    Full text link
    En este artículo se analiza el relato "El Fiord" (1969) del escritor argentino Osvaldo Lamborghini. Para esto, pensando desde la perspectiva estética de la literatura, consideramos importante ver cómo desde lo corporal-simbólico es posible señalar un una presencia animal vinculada con la violencia y lo político. Esto está estrechamente ligado con el trabajo con el lenguaje y con el proceder escritural. La cultura que se construye en el relato, se encuentra signada por espacios liminales y por una serie de rituales e imágenes grotescas del cuerpo en exhibición, deforme y degradado, que están íntimamente asociados con aspectos políticos que producen una identidad erigida en prácticas sociales caracterizadas por la violencia y la sexualidad. Es a través de la violencia y en los procesos de configuración animal, cuando los cuerpos entran en contacto y luchan creándose tensiones en las relaciones de poder, una politización del cuerpo. Los usos físicos del cuerpo, producen efectos como el dolor, el asco, la ira, la morbosidad que instauran vínculos conflictivos entre las fuerzas sociales y la violencia corporal, la política y la sexualidad. Dentro del espacio de una pequeña habitación donde se encuentran personajes ex militantes peronistas, los excesos de las prácticas sexuales culminan con un banquete antropofágico. Se articula la violencia (en el cuerpo, en el lenguaje), la animalización en las relaciones físicas, la penetración y despedazamiento de la carne.Neste artigo se analisa o relato “El Fiord” (1969) do escritor argentino Osvaldo Lamborghini.

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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
