The Lexicogrammatical Company that James Joyce Keeps
This chapter analyses how James Joyce has been represented in the British press by investigating a large corpus of British newspapers from 1993 and 1995, using the tools of corpus-assisted discourse analysis (for example, see Morley and Bayley eds 2009) and accordingly its focus goes beyond the nine-word window typical of a great deal of corpus linguistics. The chapter first describes the corpus we used for the study, the procedures used to narrow down the data, and the quantitative data resulting from a query for ‘Joyce’. Secondly, it offers an analysis of the semantic sets that are associated with mentions of his name, which means searching through the concordances not for collocates but for co-occurrences of items with similar meanings or with similar grammatical configurations. Finally, it probes what is at stake in the use of a word that does not refer to the author himself, but rather is applied primarily to objects represented as similar to him – Joycea
Conversation analysis
Since the late 1990s, translation and interpreting studies has looked at CA with increasing interest, especially in the area of dialogue interpreting (DI). DI is a form of interaction where speakers with little or no knowledge of each other’s language interact with the help of a bilingual interlocutor who translates for them. It may involve different types of bilingual experts, ranging from qualifi ed personnel to friends or relatives, and a variety of types of conversation: court proceedings, police interviews, asylum seeking sessions, healthcare interactions in different contexts, parent- teacher interactions at school, and in the media, like talk shows or interviews, and others (Mason 1999). CA focuses on the accomplishment of communicative practices as they emerge in the circumstances in which utterances are produced. It looks at how participants make their understanding of what is going on clear while responding to previously produced utterances, and examines the construction of sense- making in the interaction. As such, CA has provided a powerful instrument with to highlight the characteristics of interaction in DI. These chapters deals with the method of CA and its applications to DI
Ritradurre Kleiner Mann – was nun? di Hans Fallada. Per uno studio contrastivo delle traduzioni
Il 10 e l’11 novembre del 2009 il Dipartimento di Scienze Filologiche e Linguistiche dell’Università di Palermo
ha ospitato un workshop dal titolo Traduttori a confronto. Susan Bennett, Laurence Courtois e Mario Rubino
discutono delle loro nuove versioni di Kleiner Mann – was nun? di Hans Fallada. Lo spunto per il workshop è
nato dalla constatazione che, dopo decenni in cui Fallada era stato quasi completamente ignorato, c’era stato un
notevole incremento di interesse per le sue opere, con nuove traduzioni in Gran Bretagna, Francia, Spagna e
Italia.
Il workshop ha riunito tre dei traduttori perché si confrontassero sul lavoro svolto, rappresentando un’occasione di
incontro per poter discutere di un testo a lungo dimenticato e finalmente riscoperto, dando vita a un interessante
dibattito sull’esperienza stessa della traduzione, frequentemente oggetto di analisi teoriche, ma solo di rado,
purtroppo, affrontata in termini concreti, sulla base degli aspetti tangibili del testo e della sua traduzione.
In questo Special Issue, quindi, sono raccolte le testimonianze dei tre traduttori che erano presenti al workshop,
ai quali si aggiungono i contributi di due degli editori di queste traduzioni, la palermitana Sellerio e la londinese

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
