    Sunday as the Day of the Eucharist

    Kao i svaka religija, i kršćanstvo izdvaja posebno vrijeme koje posvećuje svome Bogu i na taj način mu iskazuje štovanje. To se vrijeme u kršćanstvu posebno odnosi na nedjelju kao prvi i temeljni kršćanski blagdan. U ovom radu donosimo povijesno teološki razvoj kršćanske nedjelje kao dana kada se Crkva okuplja na slavlje euharistije. Da bi se bolje razumjela važnost nedjelje, započinjemo govorom o židovskoj suboti koja je bila posvećena odmoru i sudjelovanju u bogoslužju, a obilježena je sjećanjem na velika Božja djela kao što su stvaranje, sklapanje Saveza i izlazak iz ropstva. Postupni prijelaz od jednog do drugog blagdana dogodio se već u prvom stoljeću kršćanstva kada nedjelja postaje dan okupljanja kršćanske zajednice na lomljenje kruha, zajedničko blagovanje i proslavu Kristovog uskrsnuća. Nedjelja se još više utvrđuje kao dan euharistije u razdoblju cara Konstantina, nakon što su kršćani dobili slobodu, što je doprinijelo daljnjem razvoju bogoslužja. Ta se praksa nastavila sve do srednjovjekovnog razdoblja kada dolazi do određene stagnacije nedjeljnog misnog slavlja zbog različitih okolnosti kao što su pojava klerikalizacije, zatim uvođenje latinskog jezika kao službenog u Crkvi te općenito dekadencija nedjeljne euharistije. Tako je crkveno zajedništvo potisnuto u drugi plan. Međutim, u tom razdoblju ključnu ulogu odigrao je Tridentski sabor novom i obnovljenom euharistijskom teologijom. I nakon ove reforme daljnje povijesne okolnosti ponovno su dovele do potrebe za novim promjenama u liturgijskom slavlju. Obnovu liturgije općenito, a samim time i nedjeljne euharistije donosi Drugi vatikanski sabor u konstituciji Sacrosanctum concilium u kojoj posebno naglašava da je nedjeljna euharistija vrhunac života Crkve. Osim toga, vidljivo je da unatoč svim naporima da se nedjelja približi modernom čovjeku, ona i dalje ostaj obilježena krizom.Like every other religion, Christianity too takes special time to devote to its God and in that manner shows respect to Him. That time specifically refers to Sunday as the first and fundamental Christian holiday. In this paper, historical as well as theological development of Christian Sunday, as a day when the members of the Church gather to celebrate the Eucharist, will be presented. In order to understand the importance of Christian Sunday better, the paper starts with the explanation of Jewish Sabbath, which was dedicated to rest and participation in liturgy, and marked with remembering of great God's deeds such as creation, forging of the Alliance and coming-out of the slavery. A gradual transition from one to the other holiday occurred in the first century of Christianity when Sunday became a day reserved for gathering of the Christian community for breaking bread, joint dining and celebration of Christ's resurrection. Sunday, as the day of the Eucharist, was established even more in the period of the emperor Constantine, i.e. after Christians gained their freedom, which contributed to further development of liturgy. That practice continues up until the medieval period when it came to a certain stagnation of the Sunday Eucharistic celebration because of different circumstances such as the appearance of clericalization, introducing Latin as the official language of the Church and a general decadency of the Sunday Eucharist. In that period, ecclesial togetherness had been repressed into the background. However, in that period, the key part had the Council of Trent that had brought new and renewed theology of the Eucharist. After this reform, some further historical circumstances had once again led to the need for new changes in the liturgical celebration. A general renewal of the liturgy, and thereby of the Sunday Eucharist, brought the Second Vatican Council in the constitution Sacrosanctum concilium in which it had been emphasised that the Sunday Eucharist is the highlight of the life of the Church. Apart from that, it can be seen that in spite of all the effort to bring Sunday closer to a modern man, it still remains marked by crisis

    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

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
