    The Last Formalist, or W.J.T. Mitchell as Romantic Dinosaur

    Full text link
    This volume contains an interview with W.J.T. Mitchell and a gloss by Orrin N.C. Wang which may be read through and against each other, much like the structure of Coleridge's Ancient Mariner transposed into a postmodern context. The critical innovation here is to use the web in such a way that views it as more than a mere repository of academic content, and to transform text into true hypertext.&nbsp;</p

    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

    Romanticism and Patriotism: Nation, Empire, Bodies, Rhetoric

    Full text link
    This volume of Romantic Circles Praxis Series includes an editor's introduction by Orrin N.C. Wang, essays by Francesco Crocco, Matthew C. Borushko, Daniel O'Quinn, Andrew Lincoln, &nbsp;Noah Heringman, and Jan Mieszkowski.&nbsp; The current cretinization of public, political language is often viewed as synonomous with the discourse of patriotism. This volume begins to demonstrate how complex the vocabulary of patriotism actually is, by investigating its diverse use during the Romantic era. Patriotic nation building is at once linked to and disarticulated from the adventures of empire, the vulgar and excremental body, the cosmopolitan imaginary, and the compulsions of languaeg. These interstices and disconnections constitute the very recits of a material, social antagonism that enmesh us to this day.&nbsp;</p
