Rafael Alonso no Parador de Baiona
No full textIn 1966 the Parador of Baiona was inaugurated, according to the project of the miñorano architect Jesús
Valverde Viñas. Following the tradition of representing contemporary artists in its hotel establishments
works are commissioned to Xavier Pousa, Rafael Úbeda, María Antonia Dans and the watercolorist Rafael Alonso. Among of them, it will be Alonso who, due to the quantity and quality of the works delivered,
will leave a deep aesthetic mark. Influenced in the beginning by the photographer Castuera, the painters
from A Coruña Molezún e Tenreiro, as well as by the post-impressionists during his stay in Paris, Alonso’s
work represents a thread in the tradition of painting in Galicia: between the renovators before the Civil War
and the Atlantic movement of the early 1980sNo ano 1966 inaugúrase o Parador de Baiona, segundo proxecto do arquitecto miñorán Jesús
Valverde Viñas. Seguindo a tradición de representar nos seus establecementos hoteleiros os artistas
contemporáneos, para o Parador de Baiona encárganse obras a Xavier Pousa, Rafael Úbeda, María
Antonia Dans e o acuarelista Rafael Alonso. Entre eles, será Alonso quen pola cantidade e calidade das
obras entregadas deixará unha fonda pegada estética. Influenciado nos inicios polo fotógrafo Castuera,
os pintores coruñeses Molezún e Tenreiro, así como polos postimpresionistas na súa estadía en París, a
obra de Alonso representa un fío de continuidade na tradición da pintura en Galicia: entre os renovadores
de antes da guerra civil e o movemento Atlántica dos primeiros anos oitent
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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 World Through Borders: The Difficult Journey of Migrants in Transit
No full textXXI Century’s irregular migrations have been framed as national security issues, receiving as such, millionaire investments to surveil and punish. Consequently terrifying elements such as the State’s security forces, and the extortionist crime have occupied the borders. Un-der this punitive principle, borders fulfill a critical mission: not letting pass those considered “undesirables”, who do not possess visas o entry permits for the destination countries, or for passing through the transit ones. Under these circumstances, borders prevent and inhibit but never stop the human flow filtering through the borders’ pores, as if it was a ghost following capital looking for a chance to be exploited. In its current metamorpho-sis, the capital despises and degrades the labor force, selecting and extracting its energy, which once used, is discarded and replaced in an intermittent cycle. The works included in this volume unveil these cycles, questioning and reflecting on the free circulation of peo-ple, the nature of border controls, the routes followed by migrants to avoid regulations, and the geopolitical expressions between migrants’ countries of origin and destination.Introduction , by Rafael Alonso Hernández López.

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
