Intention of author and reader in contemporary theories of interpretation
No full textTato práce se zaměřuje na intenci autora a intenci čtenáře v současných teoriích interpretace, konkrétně v mimetické teorii interpretace a teorii fikčních světů. Cílem práce je prozkoumat, co je v těchto konkrétních teoriích důležitější pro určení významu díla, tj. vzájemný vztah mezi intencí autora a čtenáře, respektive jejich možnou hierarchii. Výsledné poznatky jsou pak využity v analýze konkrétního díla, kterým je drama R.U.R. od Karla Čapka.ObhájenoThis thesis focuses on the intention of the author and the intention of the reader in contemporary theories of interpretation, specifically in mimetic theory of interpretation and the theory of fictional worlds. The aim of the thesis is to explore what is more important in these particular theories for determining the meaning of the work, i.e. the mutual relationship between the intention of the author and the reader, respectively their possible hierarchy. The resulting knowledge is then used in the analysis of the specific work, which is the drama R.U.R. by Karel Čapek
Umberto Eco´s Concept of Interpretation
No full textBakalářská práce se zabývá problémem interpretace v koncepci Umberta Eca. První část práce je věnována Ecově biografii se zaměřením na jeho koncept interpretace. Po uvedení do problematiky je přistoupeno k samotnému problému interpretace. Jsou rozebrány základní pojmy Ecovy teorie interpretace. Těmito pojmy jsou: intentio auctoris, intentio operis a intentio lectoris; modelový a empirický autor; modelový a empirický čtenář; otevřenost a uzavřenost díla; interpretace a použití; sémantická a kritická interpretace a falsifikační kritérium. Jednotlivé pojmy jsou vysvětleny na základě Ecových děl a jsou doplněny postmodernistickým a poststrukturalistickým kontextem.Jednotlivé body Ecovy teorie interpretace jsou ověřeny aplikací na vybraná literární díla. Nechybí ani závěrečné shrnutí Ecova problému interpretace.Katedra filozofieObhájenoThe intention of the bachelor thesis is to provide an explanation of the problem of interpretation in conception of Umberto Eco. First of all Eco´s biography is documented, focusing on his concept of the interpretation. After the introduction to the issue it is approached to the very problem of inter-pretation. Concerning Eco´s interpretation, this work analyses selected notions: intentio auctoris, intentio operis, intentio lectoris; model author, empirical author; model reader, empirical reader; open work; interpretation and use; semantic and critic level of interpretation; falsifying criteria. The single notions are explained on the basis of Eco´s works. Poststructuralist and postmodernist context of Eco´s work is added to each notion. Each aspect of Eco´s theory of interpretation is verified by applicating on selected literary works. The final resume of Eco´s problem of interpretation is included as well
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
