    Horos da Nasso con apotimema pupillare

    Full text link
    Cippo ipotecario (horos) segnalato a Hiller von Gaertringer nel giugno 1930 dall’archeologo tedesco Franz Gabriel Welter, impegnato nel corso degli anni Venti in attività di scavo nelle zone di Hyria e Livadi (Naxos). Il documento inciso risulta di notevole importanza per la definizione del concetto di apotimema, vocabolo con il quale si indicava il valore stimato di immobili dati a garanzia per la locazione di un bene di proprietà di un soggetto tutelato direttamente dall’arconte eponimo (orfani, vedove ed epikleroi). Nel caso specifico ci troviamo di fronte a un apotimema pupillare: si tratta di terreni e della casa, compreso il tetto in tegole, valutati e posti come apotimema per i beni messi a frutto dall’epitropos dei figli di un tale Epifrone. Il capitale dato in prestito dal tutore degli orfani è di 3.500 dracme da cui i ragazzi avrebbero ottenuto, come interesse annuale, 400 dracme. Tra i terreni posti a garanzia della somma vengono menzionati anche i possessi nelle località di Elaious e Melanes, toponimo, quest’ultimo, ancora in uso per il villaggio che sorge nella zona centro-settentrionale dell’isola nassia

    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

    Detection of Fibroadipose Tissue Infiltration with Cardiac Computed Tomography: A Case of Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

    : In the evaluation of cardiomyopathies, cardiac computed tomography (CCT) is predominantly used for assessing congenital or acquired coronary artery diseases as a potential etiology underlying the observed myocardial abnormalities. However, its utility is expected to expand. We present a case of an asymptomatic patient with claustrophobia who sought medical attention due to frequent ventricular beats. The resting electrocardiogram revealed repolarization abnormalities characterized by flattened T-waves in the lateral leads and low QRS voltages in the peripheral leads, whereas transthoracic echocardiography was normal. CCT accurately identified hypodense areas indicative of fibrofatty infiltration within the inferolateral and anterior walls of the left ventricle. Furthermore, late iodine contrast-phase imaging revealed subepicardial late enhancement striae in the same regions. These imaging findings were pivotal in establishing a diagnosis of left-dominant arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. This clinical vignette underscores the potential of CCT in tissue characterization, particularly when cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is contraindicated or unavailable

    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

    Full text link
    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
