Peter V. Karpovich Story chapter VII notes
No full textThis is a six page document written by Dr. Peter V. Karpovich that looks to be a rough draft and some notes for his memoir, the Peter V. Karpovich Story, Chapter VII. At the top of the first page is written "Sept 1970 answers to Raum's questions." The transcription of "Raum" is in doubt. The document talks about his present health and fitness, including recovery from neuritis in both arms and how he hurt his back ten years ago. He also writes about his hobbies, such as painting and fishing, his experiments and the equipment he designed, how Nicolas, his brother, gave a magic show to his class when he was seven and how he has used this method in his teaching of science to others, and finally how he has no plans for the future except to live in peace and be with family.For more information on Peter V. Karpovich, see: https://springfield.as.atlas-sys.com/agents/people/571Back of all pages, except for page 5, is blank. The back of page five is called page 6 in this digital file

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
SEMANTICS OF PARABOLIC STRUCTURE OF THE SHORT STORY "GROW FROM THE ASHES" (I PRACHOM SVOIM) BY V. ASTAFIEV
No full textThe article analyzes the short story by V. P. Astafiev, which is one of the examples of short story writing similar to parable. The research is based on the works devoted to parables and apologues (S. S. Averintsev, E. K. Romodanovskaya) and the forms of sophiology in literature (O. V. Ryabov, I. I. Plekhanova). The methods that we use for the analysis of the text help to reveal sophic intuition in the “cross-cutting” metaphors and personification, which prove that the author believes in the female core of the nature. During the analysis of the “interpretational” part, we found out that the law of the Mother’s wisdom of the Earth can be destroyed by war. It takes the lives of young people, who didn’t have a chance to realize their potential, thus ruining existence. Such destruction reveals itself in distortion on parabolic trajectory made by anaphora and repetition. Such genre structure presents the author’s attitude to war. It is believed to be an event that changes the worldview, and makes everybody feel disappearance of sophic from the world
Variations on the Author
No full text“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
Phtography like a story
No full textFotografie v mé autorské knize jsou nashromážděné v průběhu několika let a jsou řazeny v časové ose jednoho dne. Čas je řádem této knihy, ale i prvkem nečekaných souvislostí.
Mým cílem bylo zpracovat fotografie z mého života, cest a pro mě fascinujících věcí,
ze kterých jsem vytvořila příběh o mém životě. Každá z fotografií má svou jedinečnou atmosféru a čas, kdy vznikla.ObhájenoThe photos included in my author´s book have been collected during several years
and they are ranked within a timeline of one day. Time is the order of this book, and at
the same time, it is an element of unexpected connections. My aim was to create
a photographic publication and to process photos from my life, my journeys and the fascinating things I used to create my life story. Each of the photos has its own unique atmosphere and the time when it was taken

Reading acts of narrative appropriation: four instances of fraudulent memoir
No full textPhDThis thesis examines acts of narrative appropriation, the telling of purportedly‘authentic’ life stories by those for whom the stories are not theirs to tell. This
misuse or subversion of genre - the discipline of historical writing and the category
of autobiography - becomes a means for cultural, social and political dissimulation,
and the analysis focuses both on the act: the event, trespass, or ‘theft’ of another’s
life story, and on the cultural meaning that this event reveals. These narrative acts
are approached theoretically through discussions of what it means to be an author, a
reader, and through the consideration of literary and social genre, category and form.
In exploring identities at particular risk of appropriation, this thesis shows how
fraudulent appropriated narratives affect our reading of the world, and in turn
influence our perception of already marginalized social groups. My primary
examples include prostitution ‘narratives’, Native North American ‘memoir,’ and
fraudulent Holocaust survivor ‘testimony,’ with each text providing decoded
evidence of ‘genre-bending’ exhibiting a social and political intent. These works
seek to be read as authentic personal narratives, as autobiography, and that is how
they have been presented to the reader. However, they are imposters – fictional tales
desiring the elevated status of historical authenticity and willing to bend the rules
and contracts of genre to achieve their end. Here the appearance of authenticity is
achieved through the use of cultural and social ‘myth,’ or perceptions of cultural
identity, and as such its fraudulent construction is first and foremost a social act,
with a social and economic motivation. As this thesis concludes, these texts are
most successful when their own political and social ideologies echo and confirm that
of the readership; when their subjects, the fraudulent ‘I’ at the center of the text is
also a performative elaboration of cultural belief
