Precious Items from the Shumeiko Barrow
No full textСтаття присвячена аналізу коштовних виробів з кургану, розкопаного С. А. Мазаракі біля хут. Шумейко в Посуллі у 1899 р. Це золота обкладка руків’я меча, золоті пластина-накладка і наконечник піхов, і золота бляха із зображенням зайця. Детальний опис виробів та стилістичний аналіз зображень дозволили зробити попередній висновок про належність означених предметів до кола старожитностей келермеського горизонту ранньоскіфських пам’яток.The paper deals to the finds from the barrow near the Shumeiko farm in the Sula river basin (now Sumy region of Ukraine) which was excavated by Sergei Mazaraki in 1899. Objects of Scythian culture were found in the mound: weapons, horse bridles, and vessels. Mikhail Rostovtsev mistakenly attributed to these finds the fragment of ancient Greek kylix of the end of the 6th century BC. Modern researchers date the barrow assemblage near the Shumeiko farm to the first half of the 6th century BC (Igor Bruyako, Denis Grechko, Denis Topal, Oleksandr Shelekhan). Sergey Polin attributes it to Early Scythian time
MAIN MILESTONES OF MATVIY NOMYS' PEDAGOGICAL ACTIVITY
No full textThe author of the article explores the pedagogical activity of Matviy Nomys (1823–1901) – a Ukrainian folklorist-paremiographer, ethnographer, teacher, writer, public figure, local historian, and linguist. Based on the analysis of archival documents, scientific materials, works of the teacher Z. Shumeiko characterizes the period of his studies at the University of Kiev as a time of professional self-determination, explores the educational and scientific activity of the person in this period, his research interests, communication with pedagogical and public figures of that time, their influences on the formation of the worldview of the person.
Z. Shumeiko covers the initial stage of Matviy Nomys’ professional activity as a teacher of literature (rhetoric, poetry, history of literature and Slavic (Church Slavonic) language) in Nizhyn and Nemyriv gymnasiums, and also researches the work of Matviy Nomys as the first director of Lubny gymnasium in Poltava province from 1872 to 1877. The author of the article focuses on the activities of the director to create the material base of the educational institution, providing teaching staff, forming the material and technical base, solving various everyday problems, financial assistance to students who needed it. She proves the high efficiency of Matviy Nomis’ work in this position by the feedback of county figures – contemporaries of the director.
She pays special attention to the work of Matviy Nomys «Notes to the anniversary on the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Lubny Gymnasium note», which is a response to the accusations of opponents of the liberality of the director, which resulted in low student performance. The «Notes» is also a document that formulates the pedagogical concept of Matviy Nomys, including views on the organization of the educational process, the responsibilities of teachers and students, forms, methods and techniques of teaching and education. Z. Shumeiko concludes that Matviy Nomys is one of the theorists and practitioners of Ukrainian schooling in the second half of the 19th century
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
