A Study on the Ethics of Father-daughter Relationship in Lyrics–typed Novels Tian Yu Hua
No full text[[abstract]]《天雨花》為明末清初一部具有遺民色彩，並且風格獨幟的彈詞小說，有別於明清之際單純敘述史事、描寫才子佳人的彈詞小說，《天雨花》融合兩者，敘事脈絡設為明末的易代之際，既加入明末三大案──梃擊、紅丸、移宮案在其中，又摻合了才子佳人之故事素材，並有大量的家庭生活之書寫。共三十回，九十萬字之洋洋巨著，既有真實存在之人物，亦有杜撰之角色，劇情波折綿長，內容十分豐富。
《天雨花》描繪最為立體的是主角左維明與其長女左儀貞。左維明被描寫成武曲星降世、智勇雙全的超人型人物，而其女左儀貞具備德、才、貌，為明清之際才女的典範形象，然而又超越一般所要求女子「靜」的溫婉形象，左儀貞是一名見義勇為、配劍斬奸，帶有陽剛氣質且才德皆勝過小說中多數男子之奇女子，然而這樣的「英雄」氣質，其實是從她的父親身上所承繼而來的。此外小說中的陰陽倒置現象如以家國隱喻來看，可以認為這是作者在易代之際對於明朝政權腐朽、政治人物無能的心灰意冷。左維明與左儀貞這對父女互動既親暱又緊張，父女關係之細膩描寫、父女之間的學養傳承，實為明清小說中之特殊題材，豐富的父女互動即使以現代視角觀之亦多所呼應，十分耐人尋味。[[abstract]]“Tian Yu Hua” is a unique lyrics-typed novel which featured survivors (from becoming victims of political struggles) during the time between the end of Ming dynasty and the start of the Ching dynasty. Different from other lyrics-typed novels which told either historical stories or love stories of gifted scholars and beauties. “Tian Yu Hua” was a combination of both historical and love stories. The plot of this novel happened in late Ming dynasty. Besides referring to the three major events of that time: “A crazy man tried to beat a prince with a stick” “The emperor was murdered with poison in two red pills” and “The emperor’s lover who was forced to move out from the palace”, the novel also depicted some love stories and a lot of affairs about family daily life.”Tian Yu Hua” had 30 chapters, consisting of around 900,000 words, so this novel could be called “a classic.” This long story was with rich content produced by so many roles. Some of them were real persons in history, while the others were created figures.
Wei-ming, Tzuo and his first daughter Yi-jen,Tzuo were the leading roles in the novel. The former was a supernatural being , described as Wu Qu Star( a constellation for a fighting god)and a superman like role with wisdom and courage, while the latter behaved herself in fine morality and wise determination and she was a real beauty. Yi-jen was the model role of gifted female scholars in Ming and Ching dynasties as well. But she couldn’t be categorized as a silent and tender female, instead, she was so just and brave that she should kill an evil courtier with her sword. She was braver than most of the other male roles in the novel. In fact, her bravery was inherited from her father. In addition, the inversion of Yin and Yang(the tokens of the ever changing factors, Yin for tender and tame; Yang for hard and powerful), in the novel represented the author’s disappointment with the decadence of the regime and the incompetence of the officials of high ranks in the late Ming dynasty. Wei-ming, Tzuo and Yi-jen, Tuo kept a specific father-and daughter relationship which was intimate of course, but sometimes tense somehow. Compared with other novels of Ming and Ching dynasties, the description about their interaction was very unique. Even viewed through modern perspective, the description about the father-and-daughter relationship in “Tian Yu Hua” was very intriguing.[[note]]碩

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
