Robin George Collingwood's philosophy of history
No full textreservedLa filosofia della storia di Robin George Collingwood può essere descritta distinguendola in tre elementi. Il primo elemento riguarda la dottrina della riattualizzazione, tramite la quale le idee, generate da esseri umani vissuti nel passato, vengono riattualizzate, ossia ricreate in atto, e acquisiscono nuovamente vita nella mente di chi si pone tali idee come oggetti di riflessione. Il secondo elemento consiste nella distinzione tra scienza e storia e nell'affermazione della non idoneità del metodo scientifico nello studiare gli eventi del passato mediante misurazioni quantificabili, percezione empirica diretta dei fenomeni e individuazione di rapporti di causa e conseguenza. Il terzo elemento si basa sull'individuazione delle finalità della filosofia della storia, che consistono nell'appurare in modo sempre più preciso la conoscenza del passato, e non sull'elaborazione di sistemi filosofici che si propongano di definire un senso complessivo della storia, con l'obiettivo di stabilire a priori uno scopo ultimo di essa
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
Relation between art and history in Robin George Collingwood philosophy
No full textYüksek Lisans TeziYirminci yüzyıl düşünürü Robin George Collingwood çağa özellikle tarih felsefesi çalışmalarıyla damga vurmuş bir isimdir. Ancak onun başta sanat olmak üzere diğer düşüncelerinde ortaya koyduğu kuramlar ve bu düşünceleri bağlamında meydana getirdiği felsefi sistem bir hayli ilgi çekmektedir. Biz de çalışmamızda bu sistemin bir şeklini ortaya koymak niyetiyle düşünürün felsefesinde sanat ve tarih düşünce ve tahayyül imgelem ve bilgi arasındaki ilişkiyi irdeledik. Ayrıca düşünür sanattan tarihe doğru geçiş sürecinde bir de epistemolojik bir yapı ortaya koymuştur. Bu yapıya da çalışmamız boyunca değinilmiştir. Sanat ve tarih arasındaki ilişki gerek insan doğası hakkında bilgi sahibi olmak için gerekse de düşünürün yukarıda oluşturduğu sistemin bir şeklini kavramak için önemli görülmüş ve bu tezde işlenmiştir. İnsan doğası bilimi olan tarih insan doğası hakkında sadece tek bir yönden bilgi vermektedir. Sanat da aslında bir insan doğası bilgisidir. Ancak o da insan doğası hakkında yalnızca tek bir yönden bilgi sahibi olunacak bir etkinliktir. Dolayısıyla Collingwood'un insan doğası bilgisi ve bunun üzerine inşa ettiği insan doğası bilimi dediği şeyi daha doğru kavrayabilmek için sanat ve tarih arasındaki ilişkiye ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Yine Collingwood'un imgelemden algıya algıdan düşünceye ve düşünceden de düşünce üzerine düşünceye doğru giden yapıyı kavrayabilmek de sanat ve tarih ilişkisini ele almakla mümkündür.As a philosopher of 20st century, Robin George Collingwood and his studies, especially in the context of philosophy of history, impressed the era. Nevertheless, his theories, particularly the ones about art, and the philosophical thought system which was effectuated by him within the context of these theories, has been attracting the attention. Therefore this dissertation discusses the relevance between art and history, idée and imagination, imagery and cognition with the aim of delineating of this system. Furthermore, the philosopher put forth an epistomological system in the process of transition through history from art. His epistomological system is also mentioned all through this thesis. The relevance between art and history matters either for having information about human nature or for comprehending a form of system which is constituted by Collingwood. Hence, this topic is also treated in this article. History, as a science of human nature, inform us about human nature only in a single way. Art is also a cognition of human nature, yet art is not an efficient activity to explain human nature too. Thus, the relevance between human art and human history are needed for absorbing Collingwood's cognition of human nature and the article, so called the science of human nature by him, which is based on this cognition. Understanding Collingwood's system, goes through perception from imagery, from perception through idea, from idea through idea on idea, may not be possible without tackling the relevance between human art and human history
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
Interpretation and narrativity in historiography: Robin George Collingwood and Hayden White
No full textopenIl presente lavoro di tesi si propone di approfondire alcune tesi di Robin George Collingwood e Hayden White nell'ambito della filosofia della storiografia. La tesi si compone di tre capitoli, il primo dei quali si occupa di presentare lo statuto attribuito da Collingwood alla disciplina storica, con particolare attenzione alla relazione di interdipendenza tra storia e scienza. Successivamente, nel secondo capitolo si metteranno in relazione i pensieri dei due autori analizzati, evidenziando la critica comune di entrambi alla neutralità della storia. In questa sede si tratterà la dottrina del re-enactment di Collingwood, per cui un resoconto storico è tanto più efficace quanto più soggettiva e parziale è l'attività critica dell'autore e la tesi di White per cui il resoconto storiografico sarebbe comparabile ad un artefatto letterario. Infine, nel terzo capitolo, l'analisi sarà focalizzata sul rapporto peculiare che nel pensiero di White ricopre il rapporto tra storia e letteratura.The present thesis aims to explore some of the ideas of Robin George Collingwood and Hayden White within the field of the philosophy of historiography. The thesis is composed of three chapters: the first addresses the status Collingwood attributes to the historical discipline, with particular focus on the interdependent relationship between history and science. In the second chapter, similarities and differences between the thought of the two authors will be analyzed, highlighting their shared critique of the neutrality of history. Here, Collingwood's doctrine of re-enactment will be discussed, according to which a historical account is more effective the more partisan the author's critical activity is, Subsequently White's thesis that the historiographical account is comparable to a literary artifact will be presented. Finally, the third chapter will focus on the particular relationship between history and literature in White's thought
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
