Introdução: As obras urbanas como meio heurístico para a exploração da sociedade colonial
Full text linkAs obras públicas nas cidades coloniais tinham um papel de mediação entre os governos e as sociedades urbanas, ligado a um discurso próprio, o discurso do “bem comum”. Enquanto no âmbito conceitual e material havia uma grande semelhança entre as obras nas colônias e na Europa, as respectivas sociedades urbanas nas colônias eram muito mais heterogêneas do que aquelas na Europa, e seus governos, mais autônomos. Isso gerou intensas renegociações em termos da apropriação das obras. Foram concebidas pelos governos, mas moldadas pelas práticas dos seus usuários. Assim sendo, abrem novas perspectivas sobre as populações urbanas coloniais, incluindo suas partes mais marginalizadas.The public works in colonial cities had a mediating role between governments and urban societies, which was connected to a particular discourse, the discourse of the “common good”. While in conceptual and material scope, there was a great similarity between the public works in the colonies and in Europe, the urban societies in the colonies were much more heterogeneous than those in Europe, and their governments more autonomous. This generated intense re-negotiations regarding the appropriation of the public works. They were conceived by the governments, but shaped by the practices of their users. Therefore, the public works open new perspectives on colonial urban populations, including their most marginalized parts

No sertão, a revolta: grupos sociais e formas de contestação na América portuguesa, Minas Gerais - 1736
No full textO papel dos grupos sociais que participaram da série de revoltas conhecidas com Motins do Sertão do São Francisco em Minas Gerais, que tiveram como estopim o sistema de cobrança do quinto por meio da capitação, é o tema de que se ocupa esta dissertação. Destacando nomeadamente os membros de estratos sociais menos privilegiados, sustenta que esses grupos atuaram com certa independência em relação aos grandes proprietários que também estiveram envolvidos nos protestos. O trabalho trata ainda do processo de ocupação do sertão da Capitania, os grupos familiares que aí se fixaram com suas fazendas de gado e estabelecimento de relações comerciais com a região mineradora243 f
HIERARQUIA E REVOLTA. PERNAMBUCO, 1817
No full textA Revolução Pernambucana de 1817, por muitos considerada como a primeira revolução a se opor objetivamente contra a escravidão, ao mesmo tempo em que inovava no campo político, com a entrada de ideias liberais, reforçava hierarquias tradicionais no plano social, justamente num momento em que novos atores entravam na cena política.A fim de ilustrar essa assertiva, o texto explora episódio pitoresco ocorrido entre os revolucionários pernambucanos encarcerados na cadeia de Salvador na Bahia onde, insatisfeitos com o tratamento que lhes eram dispensados, foram instados pelo carcereiro a se organizarem “em classes”, a fim de receber melhor alimentação conforme a posição que cada um ocupava na escala social. Após acalorado debate entre os presos o que se viu, ao invés de uma organização tendo em vista a sociedade mais livre que almejavam, foi o reforço de antigas posições.PALAVRAS-CHAVES: Revolução Pernambucana; Revoltas; Política
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
