The Characteristics of Interpretation on "Non-enlightenment" in the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun
Full text link110006481943The anonymous book, the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun (釈摩訶衍論), is a unique commentary on the Da-sheng-qi-xin-lun (大乗起信論). I investigate the characteristics of the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun relative to the commentary on the concept of "non-enlightenment" (無明) which is the most important element of the Da-sheng-qi-xin-lun. As the basis for comparison I use the Da-sheng-qi-xin-lun-yi-ji (大乗起信論義記) written by Fa-tung, which is the most standard textbook of all the annotation on the Da-sheng-qi-xin-lun. What are the characteristics of interpretation on non-enlightenment in the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun? First of all I mention the following point: Interpreting non-enlightenment, the Da-sheng-qi-xin-lun and the Da-sheng-qi-xin-lun-yi-ji accept just as a fact that non-enlightenment stands as a link in the chain of the structure of which enlightenment and non-enlightenment are found in "Suchness" (眞如) as the fundamental world and from which the multifaceted phenomenal world is derived. The Shi-mo-he-yan-lun seems to follow the interpretation ; it is, however, "incorrect." Dealing with the Identity (同相) and the Nonidentity (異相) of enlightenment and non-enlightenment, the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun praises first the actual existence of enlightenment on the Identity, but treating of Non-identity, it gives an example for which Sind (身土), who said he had seen the various surface world, was criticized by Buddha for his lack of wisdom to make him see it. Namely non-enlightenment and the multi-faceted phenomenal world are denied as a result. Only enlightenment is recognized as actual existence, and non-enlightenment loses its validity. That is a remarkable characteristic of the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun compared with the Da-sheng-qi-xin-lun-yi-ji. The second point is the following: while it is quite incompatible with the above-mentioned point, the strength of non-enlightenment is emphasized at another place in the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun. "Enlightenment breaks non-enlightenment like sunrise, and non-enlightenment puts out enlightenment like sunset": being so stated, non-enlightenment is on a level with enlightenment. In this connection the following matter is noteworthy. Non-enlightenment is "無明" (mu-myo) in Chinese characters ; "無" means "be missing", "there is no…" (=non), but it is interpreted in one part of the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun as "unequaled", "there is nothing higher than…" In consequence "無明" should mean not "non-enlightenment" but "enlightenment being higher than anything" ("there is nothing higher than enlightenment"). Non-enlightenment is "Suchness" itself. This is the underlying idea, non-enlightenment should be "Suchness" in the Shi-mo-he-yan-lun. It seems that this identity suggests the departure-and arriving point of religious practice as expression.departmental bulletin pape
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

No full textM.Phil.Recently, it was discovered that metal nanoparticles can be deposited onto the graphene surface via photoreduction. On the other hand, the nitrogen-vacancy center (NV-center) in diamond has been found its application as a quantum sensor including magnetometry. Here, we demonstrate direct laser writing of platinum microstructure on graphene by continuous-wave laser. The response of the devices shows a low-cost quantum sensing device can be manufactured by the one-step method. The fabrication protocol is expected to be scalable and applicable in plasmonic systems and microengineering.最近，金屬納米顆粒被發現可以通過光還原沉積在石墨烯表面上。 另一方面，已經發現金剛石中的氮空位中心（NV-中心）可用作包括磁力計在內的量子傳感器。 在此，我們演示了通過連續波激光在石墨烯上直接激光寫入鉑微結構。 結構的反應表示，我們可以通過單步的方法製造低成本的量子感測器件。 我們預計該製造方式是可擴展的，並且可應用於等離子體系統和微工程中。Hung, Siu Fai = 以光還原直接在石墨烯上印刷金屬 / 洪兆輝.Thesis M.Phil.

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
The Fang La 方臘 Revolt and the Chi-cai-shi-mo 喫菜事魔 Sect
No full textIt is commonly accepted that the Fang La Revolt at the end of the Northern Song 北宋 Dynasty was fomented by the Chi-cai-shi-mo or Manicheans. No contemporary authorities, however, report that Fang La was a Manichean. On the contrary his "Yao-shu" 妖術 (Sorcery) was influenced rather by Buddhistic methods like those described in the Chin-ji 讖記 section of the Bao-zhi 寳誌 and Ye-jing 業鏡 ("Mirror of Karma"). It is said that Manicheanism was introduced into Fu-jian 福建, and Liang-zhe 兩浙 during the Song period. It was, no doubt, being taught in Wen Zhou 溫州 and Tai Zhou 臺州 around the time of the revolt. It is therefore possible that people such as Lu Shi-nang 呂師囊 who rose in revolt in Tai Zhou in response to Fang La, were Manicheans. But there is no evidence that the religion had been introduced by this time into Mu Zhou 睦州, the center of the revolt. Moreover, it was only after the capture of Fang La and the destruction of the main force of the revolt that a ban was imposed on the practice of Chi-cai-shi-mo. The ban was, in fact, imposed as one of the means for suppressing the remnants of the revolt in the Tai Zhou region. Thus, Fang La himself and the main force of the revolt lead by him were not Manicheans, though Manicheans seemed to have joined this revolt in Wen Zhou and Tai Zhou
