Albano Mendes, Ramon Sarró e Ana Temudo – O Museu Etnográfico Nacional da Guiné-Bissau: Imagens para uma História
Get PDFNo lançamento deste volume na Sala da biodiversidade do Jardim Botânico do Porto, o antropólogo Ramon Sarró e a museóloga Ana Temudo – Albano Mendes não pôde estar presente – começaram a sua apresentação com uma imagem do filme Blow Up (Antonioni 2017) na qual se vê o personagem principal ampliar sucessivamente um detalhe de uma fotografia até o seu olhar ficar totalmente imerso na materialidade da impressão fotográfica. Quanto mais ele ampliava a imagem, com o objetivo de ver com mais nitide..
Ethnography as tradition in Africa
Get PDFThis dossier comprises reviews of five recently published Africanist ethnographies: some fully contemporary (by Ramon Sarró, Mike McGovern and Harry West); one previously unread (by David Webster); and, finally, a major classic re-edited in Portuguese (Junod’s Unicamp edition). Ramon Sarró and I decided to organize it because we felt that we could highlight in this way how the practice of ethnography, old as it is, will remain fully alive tomorrow – no less in English than in the Portuguese-s..
Órganos vitales y metáforas mortales: un relato sobre hospitales portugueses y diáspora africana
Get PDFThis article, based on a case of medical neglect towards an African migrant, explores rumours about organ theft in Portuguese hospitals spread among African migrants. The author sees these rumours as an expression of rage against a society that marginalizes and excludes migrants. Contrariwise to authors who have studied organ theft rumours as an expression of “millennial capitalism”, he proposes to centre the attention in the continuities rather than in abrupt ruptures. The author takes some distance from scholars for whom the investigation on rumours would only make sense inasmuch as it could lead towards denouncing specific real cases. For the author, rumours themselves can lead us towards other injustices, much more embedded in our everyday life, that must also be denounced

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
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
