    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” 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

    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

    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

    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

    이 논문은 민간전승으로서의 민요 선후창과 가면극 양반과장의 연행형식 구조에 대한 연구이다. 민요 선후창은 <사설> - <후렴>교대진행방식이고 가면극 양반과장은 <대사>-<춤> 교대 진행방식이다.<사설>과 <대사>는 민중의 표현욕구에 부응하는 연행요소로 有意味한 언어를 표현매체로 하고 있다는 데에 공통성이 있고, <후렴>과 <춤>은 無意味한 언어 또는 비언어적 표현매체로 부락공동체적 예술행위의 원시적 양태를 반영하고 있는 연행요소라는 데에서 공통적이다. 더우기 민요 선후창과 가면극 양반과장은 대응되는 두 연행요소 즉 <사설>과 <후렴>, <대사>와 <춤>을 교대로 진행시켜 나가는 연행형식을 갖추고 있다는 데에서도 공통적이다. 이 독특한 연행형식의 구조 및 그 의미를 밝혀 보려는 것이 본고의 의도이다. 민요 선후창의 연행구조는 우선 후렴의 고정적인 연행적 속성 세가지 즉 <흥> · <공동체적 공감> · <현장성>을 기능소로 추출하고, 이를 선창의 사설 내용과 대비시키는 방법에 의해 분석되었다. 우선 후렴의 기능소 <흥>과 <현장성>이 사설 내용 중 긍정적인 것은 실제적인 동력(動力)으로 화(化)하게 하고 부정적인 것은 차단 · 해소되게 한다. 이로 일해 사설과 후렴의 형식적 긴밀성에 준한 형식적 기능소 <공동체적 공감>은 내실화를 기하게 되어, 후렴은 참가 성원들의 진정한 공동체적 동질감을 확보할 수 있는 장(場)이 된다. 그러고 이 과정에서 획득된 모든 무형 (無形)의 자원(資原)들은 다시 생활의 일부로서의 실제적인 노동에 투여된다. 위와 같은 민요 선후창의 연행구조는 민중의 소망을 압축적으로 대변하고 있는 지신밟기 노래의 사설에 나타난 무교(巫敎)적 가치관과 일치한다. 즉 민요 선후창은 무교의 핵심적 기능인 '기복(析福)'과 '풀이'를 그 연행형식구조의 요체로 삼고 있는 것이다. 가면극 양반과장의 연행구조는 <극적 갈등> - <극적 해소> - <신명>의 순차적 구조이다. <극적 갈등> - <극적 해소>부분은 기존 신분질서의 연극적 전도(顚倒)를 꾀하는 연극적 표현 부분이고, <신명>은 전도된 신분질서의 세계를 민중이 마음껏 향유하고 만끽하는 부분이다. 이러한 연행구조는 무교의 현실주의 및 변증법적 사유체계와 일치한다. 본고는 이를 <무교적 변증법>의 구조라 요약하고 도해(圖解)하였다. 민요 선후창에서 문학적으로 보다 발달된 서정적 사설들이 대개 부정적 정서를 표출시키고 있고 이 부정적 정서가 후렴에 의해 차단 · 해소된다고 할 때, 이 역시 <무교적 변증법>의 구조라 할 수 있다. 그러나 가면극 양반과장에 비해 민요 선후창의 연행형식구조는 보다 원시적이라고 지적될 수밖에 없다. 결국 민요 선후창 및 가면극 양반과장은 모두 무교로부터 전수받은 역동적 미의식을 연행형식구조의 요체로 삼고 있는 것이 된다. 그러나 이러한 역동적 연행형식이 성립될 수 있었던 것은 민요 선후창 및 가면극 양반과장이 폐쇄적 부락공동체 사회를 배경으로 한 두레패 연행예술이기에 가능했던 것으로 보인다. 이것은 곧 민요 선후창 및 가면극 양반과장 연행형식의 시대적 한계를 지적하는 것이다. 이 한계를 의식할 때, 보다 개방적인 연행예술인 판소리의 역동적 연행형식이 갖고 있는 연행예술사적 의의가 새삼 돋보이게 되나, 이는 이후의 과제로 돌려질 수밖에 없다.;This thesis is a study on the performance structure of "Sun-Hu-Chang(songs before and after)" in Korean folk songs and "Yang-Ban-Gwajang (the nobility section)" in Korean mask dance drama. "Sun-Hu-Chang" takes an alternating form of <words>-<refrain>, and "Yang-Ban-Gwajang" takes on alternating form of <dialogue>-<dance>. The common characteristics of <words> and <dialogue> lies in that they are performance elements corresponding to the desire of expression of the folks, and they takes the meaningful language as the expression media. <refrain> and <dance> have the common characteristics in that they are performance elements which reflect the primitive modes of artistic activity of traditional community by means of meaningless language or non-linguistic expression media. Moreover, "Sun-Hu-Chang" and "Yang-Ban-Kwajang" also show the common characteristics in that they are made up of performing form which is alternatively proceeded by the two contrasting performance elements lies, <words> and <refrain>, or <dialogue> and <dance>. The destination of this study is to explore the structure and meaning of the performance form. First, the three performing properties such, as <Heung (amusements)>, <Communal Response> and <Context> were extracted from the generally accepted knowledge for the <refrain> in the capacity of performance functional factors, and then the performance structure of "Sun-Hu-Chang" was analyzed by the correlation of the functional factors with the contents of <words>. <Heung> and <Context> make the hopeful aspects in the contents of <words> be the actual dynamics, while they make the gloomy sides be intercepted and dissolved. Accordingly the formal factor <Communal Response> comes to get the substantial meanings, and the <refrain> also becomes a part which can secure the authentic communal sympathy of the attendance. And, all the invisible products obtained through this performing process comes to return to the labour as a part of life. The performance structure of "Sun-Hu-Chang" described above agree with the shamanistic outlook which appears in the words of ritual song "Ji-Shin-Bal-Gi' which concisely represents the thought of folks. That is, "Sun-Hu-Chang' takes the 'praying for happiness' and 'dissolution' which are the main functions of the shamanism as the core of performance structure. Performance structure of "Tang-Ban-Gwajang" has the gradual structure of <Dramatic Conflict>-<Dramatic Dissolution>-<Shinmyong>. The two parts, <Dramatic Conflict> and <Dramatic Dissolution>, are the dramatic expression parts which intend to make a dramatic upset of the established social status system. <Shinmyong> is the part that the folks enjoy the upset of status system. Such a performance structure agrees with the realism and the dialectical outlook of the shamanism. The author summurized this as a <Shamanistic dialectic> structure and illustrated it. If the lyrical words which were much more advanced literarily in "Sun-Hu-Chang" generally express the gloomy sentiment of the folks and such gloomy sentiment is intercepted and dissolved, this also can be looked upon as a structure of the shamanistic dialectic. But, comparing performance structure of "Sun-Hu-Chang" with the "Yang-Ban-Gwajang", the structure of "Sun-Hu-Chang" is the more primitive one. Ultimately, both "Sun-Hu-Chang" and "Yang-Ban-Gwajang" contain the dynamic aesthetic-consciousness handed over from the shamanism as the core of performance structure. The establishment of such a dynamic performance structure, however, may be ascribed to the fact that t "Sun-Hu-Chang" and "Yang-Ban-Gwajang" was a 'DURE-group performances' in a closed village community. This indicates the limitation of "Sun-Hu-Chang" and "Yang-Ban-Gwajang".논문개요 = ⅳ Ⅰ. 서론 = 1 A. 연구의 타당성 및 의의 = 1 B. 연구 방법 = 12 Ⅱ. 민요 선후창의 연행 구조 = 14 A. 농업노동요 = 16 B. 유희요 = 34 C. 의식요 = 43 D. 小結 = 47 Ⅲ. 가면극 양반과장의 연행 구조 = 50 A. 자료제시 = 51 B. <단락-춤 1>의 경우 = 56 C. <삽화-춤2>의 경우 = 73 D. 양반과장 연행구조의 의미 = 81 Ⅳ. 해석 = 88 Ⅴ. 결론 = 96 참고문헌 = 98 Abstract = 10

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
