Gli archivi dellʼamministrazione centrale del Regno di Sardegna tra XIV e XV secolo: testimonianze documentarie ed ipotesi di lavoro
No full textL’articolo si pone l’obiettivo di analizzare e ricostruire la politica archivistica aragonese nel Regno di Sardegna, in un arco cronologico che va dal XIV al XV secolo, attraverso lo studio delle fonti documentarie coeve. La conquista del regno negli anni 1323-1324 comportò la riorganizzazione amministrativa dell’isola, con la conseguente creazione di nuovi presidi archivistici. Attestato dal 1327, l’archivio reale del Castello di Cagliari ricevette una sede permanente nel 1332. Dichiarato segreto nel 1334, era l’archivio generale del regno, posto sotto il controllo del maestro razionale di Barcellona e del suo luogotenente in Sardegna, con competenze in materia fiscale. Ma questo non fu l’unico archivio del governo centrale dell’isola: nel 1359 Pietro IV d’Aragona assegnò una sede adeguata alla scrivania dell’Amministrazione generale e al suo archivio, il quale nel XV secolo passò sotto la giurisdizione della Procurazione reale, magistratura cui competeva la conduzione della politica economica dell’isola. Infine, nel 1480 Ferdinando II il Cattolico istituì l’ufficio in capite del maestro razionale di Sardegna e il suo archivio. Questi importanti complessi documentari formarono il nucleo attorno al quale si sarebbe costituito il Regio archivio patrimoniale spagnolo e, in seguito, l’archivio sabaudo. Ciò che principalmente si vuol mettere in risalto nell’articolo è la straordinaria attenzione che la Corona d’Aragona manifestò nei confronti della conservazione documentaria, riconoscendo in essa uno strumento indispensabile per il buon governo e la salvaguardia del patrimonio regio.In this article the author examines and reconstructs the Aragonese archival policy in the Kingdom of Sardinia between the 14th and the 15th centuries, through the study of the coeval documentary sources. The conquest of this kingdom in the years 1323-1324 caused the reorganization of the administration of the island, with the consequent creation of new archives. In that time the Crown of Aragon showed a big care to the preservation of the documents. Attested since 1327, the royal archive of the Castle of Cagliari got a permanent home in 1332. Declared secret in 1334, it was general archive of the kingdom, under the control of the magister racionalis of Barcelona or his lieutenant in Sardinia, with competences in fiscal matters. But this one was not the unique archive of the central government of Sardinia: in 1359 Peter IV of Aragon gave a suitable location to the office of the scribe of the General Administration and to its archive (from 1413 archive of the procurator regius Regni Sardinie), for preserving there the documentation of the Crown Estate in the Kingdom of Sardinia. In the year 1480 Ferdinand II the Catholic established the office of the magister racionalis Sardinie and his archive
Complessi documentari aragonesi in Italia: storia archivistica dei regni di Sicilia, Sardegna e Napoli sotto la Corona d’Aragona
Full text linkIl progetto di ricerca si è posto come obiettivo la mappatura, l’analisi e la ricostruzione degli archivi prodotti dalle cancellerie e delle istituzioni patrimoniali e giudiziarie nei Regni di Sicilia, Sardegna e Napoli in età catalano-aragonese (XIII-XV secolo), sia in riferimento all’organizzazione confederale della Corona d’Aragona, sia in riferimento all’amministrazione centrale dei singoli Stati e, infine, con uno sguardo rivolto alle amministrazioni periferiche (le comunità municipali e le giurisdizioni feudali). Attraverso l’analisi delle carte e delle vicende istituzionali ed archivistiche, si è cercato di ricostruire i complessi documentari così come essi si sono sedimentati e sono stati tramandati nei secoli, alla luce della prassi amministrativa e della legislazione catalano-aragonese in materia archivistica, ma anche in conseguenza di eventi storici che possano aver influenzato o alterato la conservazione della documentazione prodotta (quali calamità naturali, smembramenti e dispersioni di fondi, successivi riordinamenti che abbiano modificato l’aspetto originario di questi archivi). In particolare si è posta una speciale attenzione sulle differenti soluzioni adottate nei tre regni “italiani” appartenenti alla Corona d’Aragona, a seconda delle specifiche esigenze e della continuità o discontinuità rispetto alle tradizioni di produzione e conservazione documentarie preesistenti alla conquista catalana.
Il primo volume contiene l’analisi di questi aspetti e la ricostruzione storica degli archivi oggetto della ricerca; invece nel secondo volume sono confluiti i repertori dei complessi documentari e dei relativi soggetti produttori, con collegamenti ipertestuali che agevolano la ricerca dei fondi smembrati e consentono di cogliere la straordinaria disseminazione della documentazione nel territorio
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
