Rosicrán y su poema Ñande ĭpĭ cuéra (1929)
No full textHace ya un siglo, el escritor paraguayo Narciso R. Colmán (Rosicrán) creaba un extenso poema mitológico en guaraní, supuestamente basado en los relatos indígenas. Su obra, enteramente ficcional, adquirió una fama que reemplazó en el imaginario social a los mitos propiamente guaraníes y que, con la misma fuerza, sepultó muchos signos, motivos y procedimientos creativos que hasta ahora no habían sido desentrañados críticamente.Fil: Villalba Rojas, Rodrigo Nicolás.

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
Ñande guarani ha umi ava: paraguayan literature, “raza” and indigenous from the end of the 19th century to the Chaco war
Full text linkEste trabajo propone una vía de lectura intertextual e interdisciplinaria. Parte del análisis de un corpus literario heterogéneo y entabla diálogo con algunas fuentes de la etnohistoria. Planteamos el análisis de la representación literaria de lo indígena -mediante el empleo de etnónimos, de adjetivaciones o del propio idioma guaraní- en los textos de la generación del 900, a la par que la aparición de los debates sobre la raza paraguaya, para comprender de qué manera los escritores de principios del siglo XX proveyeron algunas categorías que consolidarían un discurso sobre lo nacional. Observaremos también cómo el idioma guaraní tras un proceso permanente de colonización, se torna lengua de enunciación de la identidad paraguaya en oposición a lo indígena como valor negativo. Finalmente, reflexionaremos cómo los etnónimos dan testimonio de la reestructuración o conservación de las relaciones sociales.This work proposes an intertextual and interdisciplinary reading route. Part of the analysis of a heterogeneous literary corpus and engages dialogue with some sources of ethnohistory. We propose the analysis of the literary representation of the indigenous -using ethnonyms, adjectives or the Guarani language itself- in the texts of the Generation of 900, as well as the appearance of debates about the Raza Paraguaya, to understand how the writers of the early twentieth century provided some categories that would consolidate a national discourse. We will also observe how the Guarani language, after a permanent process of colonization, becomes a language of enunciation of the Paraguayan identity in opposition to the indigenous as a negative value. Finally, we will reflect on how ethnonyms bear witness to the restructuring or conservation of social relationships.Fil: Villalba Rojas, Rodrigo Nicolás. Universidad Nacional de Formosa; Argentina.

Guarani Poetry and the Pulses of Criticism: Narciso R. Colman’s Strategies Around the Songbook Ocara potÿ (1917-21)
Full text linkEl objetivo de este trabajo es comprender la dinámica entre los escritores y el circuito literario emergente de Paraguay a principios del siglo xx, así como el lugar que se asignaba a la lengua guaraní en esa interacción. Este artículo estudia específicamente el caso de Narciso R. Colmán a propósito de la publicación de su primer libro, Ocara potÿ (Cantares de Rosicrán) [Flores del campo] (1917). Aquí se analizan las estrategias que le permitieron insertar su obra poética y ser legitimado por el circuito intelectual emergente de Asunción. Con ese propósito, en primer lugar, se hará un breve recuento de la trayectoria del autor y los estudios críticos más relevantes sobre su obra, para después analizar las condiciones de producción y recepción de las dos ediciones de su libro.The aim of this work is to understand the dynamics between writers and the emerging literary circles of Paraguay at the beginning of the 20th century, as well as the place assigned to the Guarani language in this interaction. This article specifically studies the case of Narciso R. Colmán concerning the publication of his first book, Ocara potÿ (Cantares de Rosicrán) [Field flowers. Rosicran’s songs] (1917). It is shown how he was able to introduce his poetic work to the emerging intellectual circles of Asunción and be acknowledged by them. For this purpose, we will first briefly review the author’s career and the most relevant critical studies on his work, and then analyze the conditions of production and reception of the two editions of his book.Fil: Villalba Rojas, Rodrigo Nicolás.

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
