    L’extension du lotissement du « Soleil Levant » sur la commune de Saint-Valery-sur-Somme menée par la commune a donné lieu à un diagnostic archéologique mis en œuvre sur la période du 14 décembre au 17 décembre 2010. L’emprise à sonder couvre 27 017 m2. Pour mener à bien cette mission, une équipe de deux personnes a été nécessaire sur cette durée. Les parcelles concernées se situent à l’est de Saint-Valery-sur-Somme et sont cernées par une zone pavillonnaire au nord et à l’est et au sud par l..

    В статье рассматриваются смысловые аспекты обнаружения гениальности творца. Автор обращается к варианту интерпретации творчества Леонардо да Винчи, предложенному выдающимся французским поэтом и художественным критиком Полем Валери. Этот вариант не есть биографическое описание жизни итальянского художника и интеллектуала, а представляет развернутую картину интеллектуальной жизни, обобщение методов, предполагаемых всяким открытием, как художественным, так и естественнонаучным.У статті розглядаються смислові аспекти виявлення геніальності творця. Автор звертається до варіанта інтерпретації творчості Леонардо да Вінчі, який був запропонований видатним французьким поетом та художнім критиком Полем Валері. Цей варіант не є біографічним описом життя італійського художника та інтелектуала, а представляє розгорнуту картину інтелектуального життя, узагальнення методів, передбачуваних будь-яким відкриттям, як художнім, так і природничим.The article is devoted to the semantic aspects of revealing the genius of the creator. The author turns to the version of the interpretation of Leonardo da Vinci’s activity, which was proposed by the outstanding French poet and art critic Paul Valery. This version is not a biographical description of the life of an Italian artist and intellectual, but presents a detailed picture of intellectual life, a generalization of the methods assumed by any discovery, both artistic and natural. The main themes of Valery’s essay are the sources of creativity that give rise to his method and system. For Valery, the method or system of Leonardo da Vinci that he demonstrated are based on the foundations of the criticism and the attitude to the world of natural attitude by Husserl. It is important for Valery to show the practice of thinking or the intellectual mechanism that presents Leonardo as a universal genius

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    The Scientific Analogies of Paul Valery

    When Valery was about twenty, he showed few signs of a deep interest in the sciences. Weakness in mathematics had made him give up a boyish ambition to be a naval officer.l As for other sciences, here is an excerpt from a letter to his friend Andre Gide, expressing Ce monde est ridicule comme une pendule; ces astres virent sottement, tres peu nombreux (trois mille cinq cents), pas beaux en somme, ni curieux .... La nature, laide comme si un mediocre l\u27avait faite .••• Le mystere n\u27ex:iste pas helas! •.. Lea savants empestent Ie parvenu. Les causes, les efIets n\u27ex:istent pas! Nous les creons, Messieurs! alors qU\u27est-ce que cela prouve?2 Of course even Anatole France, at fifty no less, could make a similar pronouncement: Les etoiles ressemblent trop it notre soleil .••• l\u27analyse de leur lumiere nous a fait connaitre que les substances qui bl1ilent it leur surface sont celles-lit mem€s qui s\u27agitent sur Ie [soleil]. • • • Cette analogie suffirait seule it me degotl.ter de l\u27univers.3 Not to mention Hegel, who is said to have once shrugged off the starry night as an ugly eczema. 4 Valery would sigh to his friend: La Science m\u27a ennuye, la foret mystique ne m\u27a conduit a rien . . . . OU trouverai-je une magie plus neuve? 5 In a more ironic mood he would write to another friend, Francis Viele-Griffin: Contrairement a ma petite legende,- j\u27adore ce qu\u27on appelle Nature, a condition de ne la jamais nommer. 6 It was a kind of snobbery that affected decadents of the period from the Axel of Villiers de l\u27Isle Adam to the Gilbert of Oscar Wilde\u27s dialogue The Critic as Artist. a scornful indifference toward astronomy

    Square Dancing with the Stars to Enhance Dynamic Hirschman Linkages?

    In this Presidential Address, the author takes the reader on a reconnaissance of his life and time as a regional scientist. He points out scenery he found scintillating along the way, hoping that some may pick up the banner and chew on a few of the ideas for a while. He suggests a revisit to Albert O. Hirschman’s notion of key sectors and more empirical analysis related to Marcus Berliant’s and Masahisa Fujita’s notion of knowledge creation and transfer.Presidential Address, San Antonio, Texas, March 29, 2014 (53rd Meetings of the Southern Regional Science Association

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    No full text
    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
