La théorie des catégories
Les études rassemblées dans ce volume portent sur toutes ces questions. Repartant de l’ambivalence des catégories d’Aristote et de la lecture qu’en propose Franz Brentano, elles jettent une lumière nouvelle sur certains aspects essentiels de la réappropriation du problème des catégories de Bolzano à Lesniewski, en passant, centralement, par la phénoménologie husserlienne. Renouant, par-delà Kant, avec le projet aristotélicien d’une théorie des catégories, la philosophie contemporaine a largement contribué à renouveler le problème de l’articulation entre l’analyse du monde et celle du langage, entre les catégories ontologiques (substance, propriété, état de choses, etc.) et les catégories logiques (sujet, prédicat, proposition, etc.). Les catégories héritées de la tradition sont-elles d’abord des catégories ontologiques ou des catégories logiques ? Quel lien unit les unes aux autres ? Et dans quelle mesure sont-elles contaminées, les unes comme les autres, par les catégories grammaticales qui dénotent les parties du discours (substantif, adjectif, verbe, etc.) ? Enfin, comment et à quelles conditions l’analyse syntaxique, qui rend compte de la construction d’expressions bien formées, peut-elle être complétée par une analyse sémantique, qui rend compte de leur caractère sensé
Figures multimodales
editorial reviewedThe question addressed in this study is whether multimodal figures (for example, audiovisual ones) can exist and, if so, under what conditions. Starting from the definition of a figure proposed by Grelling and Oppenheim, the author brings to light the necessary conditions of figural multimodality. The conditions included in this definition lead the author to determine the constraints to which a multimodal figure would have to conform
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
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
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
Sentiment et jugement: Quelques arguments de Brentano contre Windelband
peer reviewedThis study is a critical discussion of some of Brentano's arguments in favour of the idea that feeling and judgement are two distinct "fundamental classes". The author outlines Brentano's arguments against the neo-Kantian Wilhelm Windelband, his main adversary on the question, and then points out some weaknesses in it. In conclusion he suggests that Windelband's standpoint is much more convincing than Brentano's alternative.La présente étude offre une discussion critique de quelques arguments de Brentano en faveur de l'idée que sentiment et jugement forment deux "classes fondamentales" distinctes. L'auteur retrace les grandes lignes de l’argumentation de Brentano contre son principal adversaire sur la question, le néokantien Wilhelm Windelband, puis en indique quelques faiblesses. En conclusion, il suggère que la position de Windelband présente de sérieux avantages sur sa concurrente brentanienne
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
