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
Guillermo Salinas Cossío, historiador de arte
Get PDFA ciento cuarenta años de su nacimiento, el presente artículo busca recuperar la figura de Guillermo Salinas Cossío, un intelectual de la generación del novecientos injustamente olvidado por la historiografía peruana. Salinas Cossío publicó en 1930 su extenso Programa analítico de Historia del Arte, que puede considerarse la primera guía didáctica-sistemática en esta disciplina, con el que contribuyó a lanormalización de la historia del arte en el Perú.

El ejercicio del criterio. La recepción de la crítica de arte de José Martí en el siglo XX latinoamericano
Get PDFEscritor, poeta, orador, catedrático, periodista, agente consular, estadista, crítico de arte y de literatura, José Martí (1853-1895) es al mismo tiempo el patriota que organizó las bases para la independencia de Cuba en las postrimerías del siglo XIX. Su crítica de arte, que él llamó “ejerciciodel criterio”, no fue examinada sino hasta mediados del siglo XX, pues el apremio por conferirle a Cuba una identidad nacional hizo que brillara por mucho únicamente su genio político. Juzgó la obra de artistas latinoamericanos, norteamericanos y europeos, y fue el primero en calificar como arte la producción espiritual de “nuestra América” antigua. Su visión de la realidad artística latinoamericana se articuló dentro de una concepción general que buscó reconfigurar el objeto de la estética reinante con la finalidad de incorporar en ella las creaciones de todos los pueblos del mundo. Las siguientes páginas, que forman parte de un trabajo mayor sobre el pensamiento estético de Martí, abordan brevemente la recepción de su crítica de arte en el siglo XX latinoamericano.Palabras clave: José Martí, crítica de arte, ejercicio del criterio, siglo XX latinoamericano.
AbstractWriter, poet, speaker, professor, journalist, consular agent, statesman, art and literature critic, José Martí (1853-1895) is at the same time the patriot who organized the basis for the independence of Cuba in the late nineteenth century. His art criticism, which he called "exercise of the criterion", was not examined until the mid-twentieth century, because the pressure to confer a national identity on Cuba made his political genius shine by far. He judged the work of Latin American, North American and European artists, and was the first to qualify as art the spiritual production of our “ancient America". His vision of the Latin American artistic reality was articulated within a general conception that sought to reconfigure the object of the prevailing aesthetic with the purpose of incorporating in it the creations of all the peoples of the world. The following pages, which are part of a larger work on Martí's aesthetic thinking, briefly address the reception of his art criticism in the Latin American XX century.

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

Abstract
Art critic and historian, researcher, museologist, curator, teacher and writer, Alfonso Castrillón Vizcarra is a crucial figure in the field of art and culture in Peru. Initially trained in the humanities, he traveled to Europe and carried out doctoral studies in Rome and Madrid, graduating with a thesis on Leone Leoni. Returning to Lima, he took up university teaching and dedicated himself to the management of cultural spaces. His works on art history and criticism are considered, by specialists, true pioneering texts that have contributed to the normalization of these disciplines in the country. The text we offer is intended to be a biographical sketch that seeks to stimulate further studies regarding his life and work.

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
