La circolazione dei manoscritti di ars dictaminis tra Bologna e Firenze nei secoli XIII-XV
No full textIl contributo prende in esame le peculiarità paleografiche e codicologiche dei codici di ars dictaminis, evidenziando la presenza di una determinata forma-libro, associata a specifici testi e autori del dictamen, come anche a specifici contesti geografici. In tal senso, gli ambiti maggiormente indagati sono stati quelli emiliano-bolognese da un lato e toscano-fiorentino dall’altro, poiché testimoni di una contrapposta percezione e ricezione dell’arte dettatoria, che concerne tanto gli ambienti culturali coinvolti quanto le modalità di diffusione
Paths in Free Will. Theology, Philosophy and Literature from the Late Middle Ages to the Reformation, edited by Lorenzo Geri, Christian Houth Vrangbaek and Pasquale Terracciano
No full textIl volume prende in esame, con un approccio multidisciplinare, il dibattito in merito al libero arbitrio tra la fine del Medioevo e primi decenni del Cinquecento. Specialisti di storia del pensiero, storia della teologia ed italianistica conducono il lettore attraverso un gruppo ristretto ma significativo di casi di studio: dalla poesia lirica in volgare del Medioevo italiano (Sara Ferrilli) a Francesco Petrarca (Lorenzo Geri); dalla riflessione di Lorenzo Valla (Mariangela Regoliosi) alla sistemazione del dibattitto del primo Umanesimo in Giannozzo Manetti (Stefano Baldassarri); per arrivare ad Erasmo da Rotterdam (Pasquale Terracciano, Christian Houth Vrangbæk) e Martin Lutero (Anders-Christian Jacobsen).
Si tratta di percorsi tra loro connessi da punti di contatto, intrecci e costanti di cui dà conto l’Introduzione nel delineare il rapporto dei testi presi in esame con una consolidata tradizione filosofica e teologica antica e tardo-antica. La storia secolare di uno dei nodi caratteristici del pensiero e della cultura occidentale è dunque affrontata concentrando l’attenzione nel passaggio dalla nascita e il consolidamento dell’Umanesimo agli albori della Riforma.
Seguire il dipanarsi del dibattito sul libero arbitrio permette, infatti, di affrontare da una prospettiva suggestiva la lettura di testi notissimi e meno noti, dalle rime dei Siciliani ai Rerum vulgarium fragmenta e al Secretum, dal De libero arbitrio valliano al De dignitate et excellentia hominis sino alle opere di Erasmo e di Lutero che segnano il culmine del dibattito umanistico e segnano l’inizio di una nuova storia.This book examines the debate on the free will between the end of the Middle Ages and the first decades of the sixteenth century.
The volume takes an interdisciplinary approach. Scholars with different backgrounds analyze a significant group of case studies: from the medieval vernacular lyric poetry (Sara Ferrilli) to Francesco Petrarca (Lorenzo Geri); from Lorenzo Valla’s thought (Mariangela Regoliosi) to Giannozzo Manetti (Stefano Baldassarri); from Erasmus of Rotterdam (Pasquale Terracciano, Christian Houth Vrangbæk) to Martin Luther (Anders-Christian Jacobsen).
The chapters delve into the plurisecular history of this crucial issue of western culture by focusing attention on the transition from the birth of Humanism to the dawn of the Reformation. Following the unfolding of the debate on free will allows to explore from a pivotal perspective both well-known books, such as Erasmus’ Free Will, and lesser-known, but equally noteworthy, texts
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
