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
Sobre "Escribir después de morir: el archivo y el más allá" (2022) de Javier Guerrero
César Vallejo, un poeta del acontecimiento despliega un amplio entramado teórico (que reúne postulados de filósofos como Zizek, Butler, Esposito y Badiou) con el que interroga, a través de una lectura política de la poesía de César Vallejo, uno de los grandes problemas del siglo XX: ¿de qué modo es la subjetivación de los individuos un producto de la cultura y cómo se relaciona con el orden de la sociedad capitalista? Pero también: ¿qué puede hacer la poesía en relación con lo que somos y con lo que podríamos ser en el futuro?...

“LOS CUERPOS DEL DELITO”
Los cuerpos del delito se titula una serie de retratos masculinos, que a modo de homenaje revisitan la obra «secuestrada» de Jorge Horacio Ballvé Piñero, pionero amateur de la fotografía erótica masculina en Argentina de la década del ’40. A pesar de ser un joven de familia acomodada y bien situada en la sociedad porteña, Ballvé Piñero fue arrestado en 1942 con 22 años -la mayoría de edad de la época- debido a que un entramado militar, político y judicial amalgamado en torno a una logia secreta conocida como GOU (Grupo de Oficiales Unidos) lo acusó de corrupción de menores y asociación ilícita, unos cargos que le supondrían 12 años de cárcel.  
Al filo del abismo: Roberto Arlt, Rodolfo Walsh y el género policial argentino
The detective story genre in Argentina has undergone a vast transformation over the course of the twentieth century from a classic literary tradition centered on pulp entertainment and intellectual diversion to a potent form of social commentary whose authors aim to shatter all conventions of the genre. Centered on Buenos Aires, my research was focused on the narratives and detective stories of two authors who lived in the city during different periods in its history: Roberto Arlt (1900-1942) and Rodolfo Walsh (1927-1977?). Responding to the political and social pressures of the city, both Arlt and Walsh converted the porteño detective novel into an incisive form of criticism of wider modernity, human nature, and political oppression
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
El Secreto de la cosa
El análisis se centra en una examinación del relato policial finisecualar "La bolsa de huesos"(1896) de Eduardo L. Holmberg (1852-1937) que apela a los conceptos teóricos de materialidad y memoria material para explorar el carácter multifáceto, fluido de la pista como un objeto material en determinar el curso de la investigación tanto como criminalidad de la asesina en los contornos de la narrativa
