    Veronica Granata, The book market, censorship, clandestine literature in France during the Napoleonic period : the years 1810-1814 . This article, based on documents produced by the Direction Générale de LImprimerie et de la Libraire between 1810 and 1814, analyzes the universe of writings other than periodicals during the last years of the Empire. The central theme is that of strategies developed by the regime to control printed materials, and the reaction in bookstores to a system of surveillance that aimed to oversee and govern all aspects of production, sales, circulation, and "consumption" of printed materials. The article aims to shed light on the illegal and clandestine practices characterizing each of these stages, while considering the changes taking place within the reading public, in reading practices, in tastes and literary genres.L'article, fondé sur les documents produits par la Direction générale de l'imprimerie et de la librairie entre 1810 et 1814, analyse l'univers des écrits non périodiques pendant les dernières années de l'Empire. Le thème central est celui des stratégies de contrôle des imprimés mises au point par le régime et la réaction du monde de la librairie à un système de surveillance qui prétend veiller et gouverner tous les aspects de la production, de la vente, de la circulation et de la « consommation » des imprimés. L'article se propose de mettre en lumière les pratiques illégales et clandestines qui caractérisent chacune de ces étapes, tout en considérant les changements en cours dans la composition du public des lecteurs, dans les pratiques de lecture, dans les goûts et dans les genres littéraires.Granata Veronica.

    Questa recensione è focalizzata sul libro di Veronica Granata. L'autrice ricostruisce la storia del teatro francese nel corso dell'età moderna, analizzando una larga quantità di fonti manoscritte. Tutte le classi della società francese vanno a teatro. Pertanto, il potere politico cerca di controllare la produzione di opere teatrali, usando la censura. Tuttavia, il teatro, come l'autrice mostra, opera a supporto dei cambiamenti politici e sociali della società come avviene durante la Rivoluzione francese.This review is focused on the book of Veronica Granata.

Therefore, the political power try to control the writing of theatrical operas, using censorship. Nevertheless, the theatre in France, as the author shows, manages to support the political and social changements of society as it happens during French Revolution

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    Variations on the Author

    “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 link
    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

    Full text link
    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
