THE CONTINUITY AND DISCONTINUITY OF VISITING SHEIKH YUSUF TOMB TRADITION IN KOBBANG GOWA-SOUTH SULAWESI
No full textThe findings of this paper show that the ritual tradition of visiting the tomb of Sheikh Yusuf in Kobbang from time to time amended. It was initially a strong ritual primarily influenced by the nuances of heresy, but on its further development the influence fades due to the efforts of Islamic preachers. The general motivation of the pilgrims is hoping the livelihood they can acquire, such as finding mates, sustenance, offspring, health and inner tranquility. Yet, some are visiting the tomb to appreciate the scholars or heroes or just for sightseeing. In the context of developing society, this tradition seems to be persisted as Sheikh Yusuf is regarded as having karomah, a guardian, scholars and a hero. His personality is considered to bring blessing to the pilgrims. Therefore, for most modern societies this tradition remains alive and serves as one alternative to find peace and cure severe diseases.
Temuan tulisan ini menunjukkan bahwa ritual tradisi ziarah makam Syekh Yusuf di Kobbang dari waktu ke waktu mengalami perubahan. Pada awalnya masih ditemukan ritual yang kental dengan nuansa bid’ah tapi pada perkembangan lebih lanjut nuansa bid’ahnya mulai terkikis berkat usaha para da’i Islam. Motivasi yang melatarbelakangi para peziarah pada umumnya agar hajat mereka dapat terpenuhi, seperti hajat mendapatkan jodoh, keturunan, rezeki, kesehatan dan ketenangan batin. Tetapi ada pula yang berziarah ke makam Syekh Yusuf karena motivasi menghargai ulama atau pahlawan atau sekedar berwisata. Dalam konteks masyarakat yang terus mengalami perkembangan, nampaknya tradisi ini tetap bertahan, karena Syekh Yusuf dianggap sebagai seorang yang memiliki karomah, seorang wali, ulama dan seorang pahlawan. Kepribadian yang dimiliki oleh Syekh Yusuf dianggap akan mendatangkan berkah bagi para peziarah. Karena itu, bagi sebagian masyarakat modern, tradisi ini tetap hidup dan dijadikan sebagai salah satu alternatif mencari ketenangan batin dan menyembuhkan penyakit yang tidak terjangkau oleh medis
Kontroversi Pemikiran Abdul Rauf Al-Singkili
Get PDFThis writing explored how was the thought of Abdul Rauf al-Singkili who lived in the 17th century. One of his intellectual position was his voiceless on the women leadership. As it was noted that Aceh Sultanate had been ever ruled by four Sultanah (women ruler), respectively till the end of 17th century, and Abdul Rauf was trusted as qadhi at the time. Abdul Rauf was considered controversial in the field of theology and mystics. He wanted to balance between syariah and hakikat (mystical philosophy). He was expert in hadis, tafsir and tasauf, thus brought him to be well known as the 17th Muslim intellectual
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
Konfrontasi Islam Ideologis Versi Abdul Qahhar Muzakkar dengan Komunis di Desa Tompo Bulu
Get PDFAbdul Qahhar Mudzakkar merupakan salah satu tokoh yang kini menjadi simbol perjuangan bagi sebagian masyarakat di Sulawesi Selatan. Perjuangannya dalam menyuarakan hak-hak para gerilyawan memberikan kesan tersendiri bagi masyarakat local yang berjuang saat itu. Tidak hanya itu, Qahhar juga menjadi ikon perjuangan bagi para tokoh agama dalam memperjuangkan syariat Islam.
Konflik di tubuh militer dianggap sebagai dasar pemberontakan Qahhar bersama para pasukannya. Padahal jika kita menelaah dari perspektif lain, perjuangan Qahhar tidaklah dilatarbelakangi oleh motif politik; melainkan motif agama. Hal tersebut dapat kita lihat dari berbagai macam rekonsiliasi yang dilakukan oleh tokoh-tokoh pemerintahan namun tak satupun yang berhasil. Ditambah lagi, surat-surat yang ditulis oleh Qahhar benar-benar menampakkan penolakannya terhadap komunis yang telah mendapat ruang khusus di negeri ini.
Hal serupa dapat kita lihat di desa Tompo Bulu yang menjadi salah satu markas berkumpulnya para gerilyawan. Saat itu, ketika PKI datang untuk mencari dukungan, masyarakat lokal menolak dengan alasan PKI-nya. Artinya, masyarakat di pedalaman telah teredukasi sehingga mereka menolak apapun yang berbau PKI dalam kehidupannya
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
