A representação alegórica da ditadura militar em “O Minossauro”, de Benedicto Monteiro: fragmentação e montagem
Get PDFThis Dissertation Representação Alegórica da Ditadura Militar em O
Minossauro, de Benedicto Monteiro: Fragmentação e Montagem makes an
analysis of the allegorical elements characterized by the fragmentation and
assembly of the work, the narrative strategies of the author, and the relationship
between the work and the social context of military despotism in Brazil in the
1970s. The theoretical studies were complemented by interviews – with Benedicto
Monteiro and other informers – that added important information to the
enlightenment and systematization of questions relating the author’s life and work.
The research found out – in O Minossauro, representative novel of the literary
production of the region of Amazonas in the 1970s – Flagrant presence of
allegorical elements (fragmentation end assembly) used in the narrative strategies
by the writers of this period. These characteristics range the novel of the writer
from Pará to his congeners of the 1970s. The importance of this novel is the fact
that Benedicto Monteiro dialogued with this shadowy period of the Brazilian history
and established a place: the state of Pará as a romantic character of the work,

Militar em O Minossauro, de Benedicto Monteiro: Fragmentação e Montagem
faz análise dos elementos alegóricos constituintes do romance O Minossauro,
caracterizados pela: fragmentação e montagem da obra, estratégia narrativa do
escritor e relação entre a obra e o contexto social da ditadura militar no Brasil da
década de 1970. A análise da estrutura do romance O Minossauro se pautou nas
teorias sobre alegoria, figura de linguagem objeto de discussão entre os críticos da
literatura brasileira na década de 1970. Os estudos teóricos foram
complementados por entrevistas - com Benedicto Monteiro e com outros
informantes –, entrevistas estas que acrescentaram importantes informações para
esclarecimento e sistematização de questões relacionando vida e obra do autor. A
pesquisa constatou em O Minossauro - romance representativo da produção
literária da região amazônica da década de 1970 - flagrante presença de
elementos alegóricos (fragmentação e montagem), empregados nas estratégias
narrativas pelos escritores desse período. Essas características alinham o
romance do escritor paraense a seus congêneres da década de 1970. A
importância desse romance reside no fato de Benedicto Monteiro ter dialogado
com este período sombrio da história brasileira e instaurado um lugar: o Pará
como espaço romanesco da obra
Como delimitar o sagrado na escrita? Às voltas com os universais
Get PDFO conceito de universais é distinguido de outros conceitos (essencialismo;busca da verdade; o real, o simbólico e o imaginário cf. Lacan [R.S.I.]). Chego à palavra, à experiência e ao sagrado, propondo o point de capiton (cf. Lacan) como ponto instaurador da homogeneização no tempo heterogêneo
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
