No full textL'articolo presenta i risultati dell'indagine archivistica condotta presso l'Archivio Storico Diocesano di Cagliari e l'Archivio di Stato di Cagliari, relativamente alle fonti contenenti i diari delle visite pastorali compiute dagli Arcivescovi di Cagliari o dai loro delegati a partire dal XVI secolo e fino ad inizio XIX secolo nel territorio da essi governato: i dati sulle 40 visite pastorali rilevate sono schematicamente proposti tramite l'ausilio di tavole, coi rimandi ai fondi archivistici di riferimento. Il lavoro è preceduto da alcuni cenni sull'organizzazione delle diocesi sarde durante l'età moderna e sulle fonti relative alle visite pastorali.The article presents archival investigation's results accomplished at the Historical Diocesan Archive of Cagliari and at the State Archive of Cagliari, related to the sources containing the diaries of the pastoral visits completed by the Archbishops of Cagliari or by their delegates from the XVI century to the beginning of the XIX century in the territory from them governed: the data on those forty pastoral visits are schematically proposed through the aid of tables, with the position of the archival funds. The job is preceded by some words about the organization of the sardinian dioceses during the modern age and about the sources connected to the pastoral visits
Ricerca dell’efficienza amministrativa: il caso della magistratura in capite amministrativo-patrimoniale del ‘Regno di Sardegna e Corsica’ nel periodo 1323-1421
No full textNel governo di un regno un ruolo fondamentale è rivestito dalla capacità degli uffici regi di incamerare tutte le rendite e le tasse di spettanza della Corona, al fine di avere in cassa le risorse necessarie per la gestione dello Stato. Ecco che allora quando, per vicissitudini storiche varie, tali uffici non riescono a svolgere appieno il loro dovere, può capitare che il potere centrale ricorra a frequenti cambi di attribuzioni (modificando, ampliando o riducendo le competenze della magistratura incaricata) od addirittura a radicali cambi istituzionali (cassando una magistratura e sostituendola con un’altra).
Tutto ciò è avvenuto di frequente nel ‘Regno di Sardegna e Corsica’ fin dalla missione di conquista organizzata da Giacomo II ed eseguita dall’Infante Alfonso nel 1323-24. Difatti per quasi un secolo, sino al 1413, quando finalmente la magistratura ha trovato una struttura stabile, l’ufficio in capite di ambito amministrativo-patrimoniale del ‘Regno di Sardegna e Corsica’ ha subito una serie di cambi istituzionali e di attribuzioni: 1323, istituzione dell’Amministrazione generale; 1355, suo sdoppiamento fra il Capo di Sotto ed il Capo di Sopra; 1391, istituzione della Baiulia generale; 1401, nuovo sdoppiamento fra i due Capi; 1413, istituzione della Procurazione reale.
Nel mio intervento esporrò questa serie di cambi, finora studiati solo singolarmente, senza una visione d’insieme, ricercando la loro motivazione sia nella contingente situazione storica (stanti le frequenti attività belliche svolte nel territorio sardo) sia nella poca efficienza degli uffici stessi (così come si evince da alcune delle carte di istituzione e di nomina emanate dalla Corona).In the government of a kingdom a fundamental role is played by the ability of the royal offices to collect all the income and the taxes due to the Crown, in order to have the resources necessary for the management of the State. So when, because of various historical vicissitudes, these offices fail in their duty, it can happen that the central power resorts to frequent changes in attributions (modifying, expanding or reducing the powers of the magistracy in charge) or even to radical institutional changes (cancelling a magistracy and replacing it with another).
All this happened frequently in the 'Kingdom of Sardinia and Corsica' since the mission of conquest organized by James II and performed by the Infant Alfonso in 1323-24. In fact, for almost a century, until 1413, when this office finally found a stable structure, the main magistracy administrative-patrimonial of the 'Kingdom of Sardinia and Corsica' underwent a series of institutional changes: 1323 , establishment of the General Administration; 1355, its split in two regions of competence; 1391, institution of the General Baiulia; 1401, a new split in two areas; 1413, establishment of the Regiae Procurationis.
In my speech I’ll present this series of changes, for the moment studied only individually, without an overview, seeking their motivation both in the contingent historical situation (above all the frequent war activities) and in the low efficiency of the offices (as it is deduced by some of the papers of institution and appointment emanated by the Crown)
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
