La villa romana di Castellito di Ramacca (Catania). Indagini topografiche e archeologiche (2019-20)
No full textThis paper presents the results of the research undertaken through a series of on-site surveys
and desk studies (2019-2022) of the site of Castellito di Ramacca (Catania, Sicily). The site, located on the
top of a low hill (106 masl), was partly excavated in the late 20th century and interpreted as a roman rural building, possibly related to the road station whose name is attested in ancient sources (Capitoniana). The site was re-evaluated through the use of various non-destructive prospecting methods (aerial photogrammetry, fieldwalking survey, architectural relief), precise location con RTK GNSS and integration of the legacy data in GIS, confirming a new addition to the already known villa complex, and contextualized as a focal point of the rural settlement system. Based on the topographical data obtained from the survey campaign, conducted through the integration of direct and indirect survey techniques, we can propose a digital restoration of the mosaics and the reconstruction of the villa’s elevation at its acme in late antiquity

La presentazione dei risultati delle indagini, concluse e in corso, e il proficuo confronto sugli aspetti archeologici e storici tra tutti i partecipanti - docenti, assegnisti, dottorandi, specializzandi e studenti - è estesa ai colleghi delle Soprintendenze e dei Parchi archeologici, interlocutori - e attori - delle ricerche
Città e territorio nel Mediterraneo antico. Scritti offerti a Edoardo Tortorici
No full textIl volume, concepito inizialmente per gli atti del convegno La città nel Mediterraneo antico. Giornate di studio in onore di Edoardo Tortorici, per il suo 70° compleanno (Catania, 8-9 novembre 2019), raccoglie i contributi di numerosi archeologi, amici e allievi del Professore. L’iniziativa editoriale ha assunto le forme di una festschrift miscellanea – ma con carattere essenzialmente topografico – che ben rappresenta la poliedrica personalità dello studioso. Gli autori hanno presentato contributi nei quali affrontano problematiche congruenti alle tematiche principali che, negli anni, hanno caratterizzato le sue linee di ricerca: topografia antica e urbanistica; cultura materiale e archeologia subacquea, temi cui Edoardo Tortorici ha indirizzato l’instancabile impegno di archeologo e di docente

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
