    Sobre a intentio operis de Umberto Eco

    The article tries to present Umberto Eco’s proposal of intentio operis in opposition to intentio auctoris and intentio lectoris. It also intends to present some critical appraisal of that proposal taking as starting point the notion that intentionality can only be understood as a projection of meaning from an author or a reader.O artigo busca apresentar a proposta da intentio operis em Umberto Eco como contraposição à intentio auctoris e à intentio lectoris. Visa também apresentar alguns críticos em relação a esta proposta a partir da noção de que intencionalidade só pode ser entendida como projeção de sentido a partir de um autor ou do um leitor

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    Variations on the Author

    “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

    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We 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

    Ostracism decade: analisis of the theology of liberation in Brasil (1990-2000)

    No full text
    A atual situação em que se encontra a Teologia da Libertação é analisada por teóricos ligados a ela por seus oponentes de forma a mais variada possível. Adaptação ao novo contexto, crise e até o anúncio de sua morte são as respostas encontradas nos editoriais que refletem sobre o assunto. A presente dissertação parte de uma outra leitura para compreender o atual status da Teologia da Libertação no Brasil: a de seu ostracismo. Adotando uma reflexão teológica que tem nos pobres seu ponto de partida, essa teologia pagou o preço por adotar um novo modelo eclesial divergente do milenar modelo de Cristandade adotado pela Igreja Católica Romana. O ostracismo da Teologia da Libertação no Brasil se define pelo abandono dos pobres como prioridade eclesial assumida pela Igreja Católica do Brasil nos últimos 30 anos e pela condenação da utilização do marxismo como viés analítico por essa teologia. O ostracismo da Teologia da Libertação reflete um quadro de conflito entre modelos eclesiais diferentes, onde a disputa pelo monopólio dos bens de salvação traduz toda essa tensão. Teóricos como Weber, Bourdieu e Otto Maduro servem de referenciais teóricos para a percepção da hipótese levantada.The current situation of Liberation Theology is analyzed by theoreticians related to it by their opponents in multifarious ways. Adaptation to new context, crisis and even the announcement of its death are the propositions that one can find in editorials that discuss the subject. This thesis starts from another reading, in order to understand the current status of Liberation Theology in Brazil: that of its ostracism. Having adopted the poor as a starting point for a theological reflection, this theology has paid the price of adopting a new ecclesial model, in disagreement with that of the millennial model of Christianity, adopted by the Roman Catholic Church. The ostracism of Liberation Theology in Brazil could be defined by the abandonment of the poor as the ecclesial cause, formerly adopted as ecclesial priority by the Brazilian church in the last thirty or so years, as well as by the condemnation of Marxism’s adoption as a theoretical reference point, once attempted by this theology. The ostracism of Liberation Theology reflects a framework of conflict between distinct ecclesial models, where disputation for the monopoly of the goods of salvation translates this whole tension. Scholars such as Weber, Bourdieu and Otto Maduro stands as theoretical guides for the perception of the proposed hypothesis
