Giorgio Metochites, Historia dogmatica, libro I. Edizione, traduzione e commento
No full textMy PhD dissertation consists in the first critical edition of the first book of the Dogmatic History by George Metochites, a Byzantine author who lived between the 13th and 14th centuries. This study is divided into three parts. The first one analyzes the figure of George Metochites and the first book of the Dogmatic History in their historical and ecclesiastical context: the author’s biography, the elements that allow the dating of the work, the sources and the peculiarities of the language of Metochites are thus briefly presented. The following three chapters are each one devoted to a specific section of the text: the aim is to examine the main themes addressed by the author, offer a historical interpretation of the work, and highlight its value and originality. The second part presents the edition of the text, accompanied by an Italian translation, and introduced by two chapters, dealing respectively with the manuscript tradition and the editorial criteria. The third part contains the commentary; the analysis offers a comprehensive study, conducted on multiple levels (philological, linguistic, stylistic, historical and ecclesiological). At the end of the thesis are the indices, namely, the index of names (Index nominum), a thematic index regarding the problem of union and schism of the Churches (Index verborum ad unionis quaestionem spectantium), and an Index locorum, which lists the quotations inserted by the author.Ma thèse contient la première édition critique du premier livre de l’Histoire dogmatique de Georges Métochitès, un auteur byzantin né vers le milieu du XIIIe siècle et mort en 1328. Cette étude est divisée en trois parties. La première consiste en une analyse de la figure de Georges Métochitès et du premier livre de l’Histoire dans leur contexte historique : ainsi sont brièvement présentés la biographie de l’auteur, les éléments qui permettent de dater l’œuvre, les sources utilisées et les particularités du grec de Métochitès. On trouve ensuite trois chapitres d’analyse générale, chacun consacré à une section du texte, qui ont pour but d’examiner les principaux thèmes abordés par l’auteur, de proposer une interprétation historique de l’œuvre et de mettre en évidence sa valeur et son originalité. La deuxième partie présente l’édition du texte, accompagnée de la traduction italienne et introduite par deux chapitres, respectivement consacrés à la tradition manuscrite et aux critères d’édition adoptés. La troisième partie contient le commentaire ; l’analyse vise à offrir une étude complète, menée sur plusieurs niveaux avec des remarques d’ordre philologique, linguistique, stylistique, historique et ecclésiologique. À la fin de la thèse se trouvent les index, c’est-à-dire l’index des noms (Index nominum), un index thématique sur l’union et le schisme des Églises (Index verborum ad unionis quaestionem spectantium), et un Index locorum contenant les citations insérées par l’auteur dans son œuvre
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
