    Les écrits peuvent d’abord être distingués selon leur visée utilitaire, ils sont nombreux dans le roman flaubertien et revêtent de multiples fonctions comme celle consistant à mettre en relief ce qui est visuel, faisant naitre une forme de théâtre par la graphie. Puis, ils peuvent aussi transmettre la voix officielle, comme lors des faits juridiques à valeur à la fois référentielle et romanesque. Leur statut est parfois même historique,surtout dans l’Éducation sentimentale où résonnent les événements révolutionnaires de 1848 qui ont marqué l’époque, mais cette polyphonie présente le plus souvent un enjeu méta textuel en transmettant la voix du romancier dans une mise en abyme ; donner à voir ou à lire l’écrit serait sans doute pour lui aussi un moyen de se représenter en tant qu’auteur ou peut-être aussi, a l’oppose, de se distinguer de tous les écrits utilitaires qui caractérisent cette nouvelle société démocratique. (Corinne, 2018, p. 1). Emma dans Madame Bovary de Gustave Flaubert était haute instruite et bien élevée. Elle s’est mariée à un médecin bien éduque dans la vie. Mais, avec son éducation et le type d’homme qu’elle a comme mari, elle finit par trichée en dehors de son foyer conjugal et faire des dépenses extravagantes. A la fin de tout cela, elle meurt et ne pourrait pas avoir un mariage réussi et une vie heureuse. C’est souvent le cas avec beaucoup des femmes et des jeunes aujourd’hui dans notre société. Elles aspirent pour le meilleur mais fini souvent très mal, déchus et malheureuses

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    “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

    The study investigated family background and corruption nexus in selected Local Government Areas in Bayelsa state. The correlational design was adopted for the study. With Taro Yemane formula, the study sampled a total of (400=100%) respondents. Data for the study was gathered through structured questionnaires.However (203=50.75%) copies of questionnaires were retrieved from eight selected communities. Cronbach Alpha was used to determine the reliability of the research instrument. Both Probability (simple random, cluster) and non-probability (purposive, accidental) sampling techniques were adopted for sampling procedures. Data for the study were analyzed with univariate and multivariate statistics with the aid of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23.0. The study found that defaulting family background led to corrupt attitude among children during adulthood. Telling lies was the major corrupt attitude reported in the study. Parental irresponsibility led to sociopathic tendencies which influence corruption among others. Based on the findings, the study recommends family restricting, national juvenile re-orientation, monitoring of unwanted pregnancies, enforcing of swift punishment on individuals found guilty of corruption among others

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We 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 PDF
    We 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

    We 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
