Un albanese di Sicilia traduttore delle Omelie di Giovanni Crisostomo in greco volgare: Domenico Mamola. (Appunti per una futura edizione)
No full textSi descrive la vita e l’opera di sacerdote Domenico Mamola originario di Piana dei Greci e giunto in Grecia agli inizi del Settecento come missionario, prima a Himara e poi a Ioànnina. Nel ginnasio di questa cittadina si dedicò per quattro mesi alla trascrizione di una selezione di Omelie di San Giovanni Crisostomo che corredò, con un’operazione davvero originale per l’epoca, di una traduzione a fronte in greco comune, probabilmente al fine di destinare questi testi a un pubblico più ampio di fedeli. Questi brevi testi in prosa sono tramandati da un manoscritto finora ignoto agli studiosi e oggi conservato presso l'Archivio della Diocesi di Piana degli Albanesi, di cui viene fornita una sintetica descrizione in vista di una futura edizione dell’opera.The life and work of the priest Domenico Mamola, originally from Piana dei Greci, who arrived in Greece at the beginning of the eighteenth century as a missionary, first in Himara and then in Ioannina, are described. In the gymnasium of this town, he devoted himself for four months to transcribing a selection of Homilies by Saint John Chrysostom, which he accompanied, in a truly original operation for the time, with a parallel translation in common Greek, probably in order to address these texts to a wider audience of believers. These short prose texts are handed down from a manuscript hitherto unknown to scholars and now preserved in the Archives of the Diocese of Piana degli Albanesi, of which a brief description is provided in view of a future edition of the work
Optimization of the liquor distribution in yarn package dyeing by CFD
No full textThe aim of this work was to simulate the fluid flow in the spindle-bobbin system using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). In the frame of a wider project finalized at dyeing machinery diagnostics, the CFD simulations in the distribution apparatus offer an interesting tool to investigate various spindle geometries and choose the best structure afore of designing industrial scale dyeing equipment. The flow behaviour has been predicted using the k-e model in the commercial CFD package of Fluent 6.2
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
Venezia nella poesia cretese del Rinascimento
No full textThis study starts moving from an article by Silvio Giuseppe Mercati on the presence of Venice in modern Greek poetry and focuses on the poetic production of the island of Crete during the Venetocracy. Specifically, it analyses the Διήγησις τῆς φουμιστῆς Βενετίας (Tale of the Famous Venice), highlighting some compositional and stylistic aspects of the work. The full text and its translation are also in the appendix
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
