Rosalía\u27s "El mal querer". Case Study on Building Stardom in the Digital Age
No full textProponemos la idea del estrellato como una forma de mitología contemporánea en la que las estrellas y celebridades actúan como receptáculos semiótico-culturales y somático-emocionales. Para explorar este fenómeno contemporáneo, tomamos el caso de Rosalía. A raíz del lanzamiento del álbum El mal querer el 2 de noviembre de 2018, esta cantante catalana de música urbana y flamenco eclipsó el panorama mediático en España, alcanzando el estatus de la personalidad más buscada en Google por la población española en 2018. Cinco años después, es innegable que el universo conceptual de El mal querer ha establecido una mitología nacional propia de la generación millennial: su leitmotiv intergeneracional –el «trá trá» del estribillo de Malamente–, el retrato faceless de la cantante creado por la artista popular Coco Dávez, la colisión entre el imaginario español tradicional y zeitgeist millennial o las hipertrofiadas uñas de gel de Rosalía son elementos que ya constituyen un signo de identificación entre las generaciones más jóvenes. Debido a la naturaleza polimórfica del estrellato, en esta investigación pionera adoptamos un enfoque interdisciplinario –partiendo de la musicología, la comunicación social, los estudios culturales y el análisis visual– para analizar este objeto de estudio que en 2018 (año del inicio de este doctorado) no tenía antecedentes académicos.We propose the idea of stardom as a form of contemporary mythology in which stars and celebrities function as semiotic-cultural and somatic-emotional receptacles. To explore this contemporary phenomenon, we take the case of Rosalía. Following the release of the album El mal querer on 2 November 2018, this Catalan singer of urban music and flamenco has dominated the Spanish media landscape, achieving the status of the most searched personality on Google by the Spanish population in 2018.Five years on, it is undeniable that the conceptual universe of El mal querer has created a national mythology specific to the millennial generation: its intergenerational leitmotif - the "trá trá" of Malamente\u27s chorus - the faceless portrait of the singer created by the popular artist Coco Dávez, the collision between the traditional Spanish imaginary and the millennial zeitgeist or Rosalía\u27s hypertrophied gel nails are elements that are already a sign of identification for younger generations. Due to the polymorphic nature of stardom, this pioneering research adopts a multidisciplinary approach, drawing on musicology, social communication, cultural studies and visual analysis to analyse this object of study, which in 2018 (the year of the start of this PhD) had no academic antecedents

El framing y la construcción de estrellato en la era digital. Estudio de caso: El mal querer de Rosalía en la prensa escrita española (2018-2020)
Get PDFAún no hallamos investigaciones académicas en torno a la figura de Rosalía. El estrellato en la música popular dentro del marco de la era digital, como fenómeno propio de las sociedades posmasivas, es una parcela científica inexplorada en nuestro país. Nuestro objetivo principal es analizar los frames generados por los cuatro principales medios de la prensa generalista nacional (El País, El Mundo, La Vanguardia y ABC) alrededor de la estrella catalana. Tras un análisis de framing narrativo y retórico de 331 artículos hemos hallado un total de 10 frames culturalmente imbuidos. Los resultados de la investigación muestran la presencia de frames y frames antagonistas dentro de los mismos medios, lo que hace patente la complejidad del fenómeno y el carácter polimórfico del estrellato en la era digital. La artista catalana es interpelada por frames que oscilan desde figuras arquetípicas como El invasor o El artista revolucionario hasta problemáticas sociales como la lucha de género en la industria musical o las transformaciones que experimenta la identidad en la cultura globalizada
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
