    Sacred and Profane. Idolatry, Antiquarianism and the Polemics of Distinction in the Seventeenth Century

    No full text
    Everyday life is not a place for the sacred. Instead, the sacred stands apart from ordinary, profane affairs: it finds its home in churches, mosques and synagogues, spaces sanctified by their connection to the world of the transcendent and dedicated to its honour. If this seems a rather pedestrian distinction, it is not. At the very least, it has been a distinction vital to the anthropological description of the world. ‘In every primitive community . . .’, the social anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski argued in 1925, ‘there have been found two clearly distinguishable domains, the Sacred and the Profane’.1 Despite their magically infused lives, the Trobriand islanders that he so famously studied never lost sight of these two domains. Ask any of these Melanesian farmers whether magic alone grew his crops and ‘he would simply smile on your simplicity’: if fields are..

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    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

    Even orientations and pfaffian graphs

    No full text
    We give a characterization of pfaffian graphs in terms of even orientations, extending the characterization of near bipartite non-pfaffian graphs by Fischer and Little [4]. Our graph theoretical characterization is equivalent to the one proved by Little in [6] (cf. [8]) using linear algebra arguments
