Makna Lokalitas “Gereja Maria” di Paroki Administratif Mater Dei Bonoharjo
Get PDFThis study aims to discover the theological reflections contained in a work of art that is the fruit of an artist's reflection. The author intends to examine a case study of a religious statue, namely the Virgin Mary, which appears in an unusual form. This statue is located in the Mater Dei Bonoharjo Administrative Parish, Wates, Kulon Progo, D.I. Yogyakarta, in the local area. It is a work of art with theological meaning and hidden beauty. The study was further explored using a literature review method from various relevant sources. In order to obtain more accurate data, the author conducted an interview with Mr. Ismanto, a sculptor from Muntilan, Central Java. The results of the author's research state that Mary's role is not only as the Mother of Jesus, but she is also present as the Mother of the Church. Thanks to Mary's motherhood, the Church appears as a mother who nurtures the children of God. Works of art are a means of expressing the fruit of faith reflection on the encounter with God. Works of art are often viewed merely as decorations, without looking more deeply at the fact that a work of art is the result of a person's contemplation. Every time a work of art is created, there is a ‘soul’ that remains in the work of art.AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan refleksi teologis yang terdapat pada suatu hasil karya seni yang merupakan buah refleksi seorang seniman. Penulis hendak meneliti studi kasus tentang sebuah patung religius yakni Bunda Maria yang tampil secara tidak biasa. Sebuah patung yang terdapat di Paroki Administratif Mater Dei Bonoharjo, Wates, Kulon Progo, D.I. Yogyakarta dalam lokalitas setempat. Suatu karya seni dengan segala makna teologis dan keindahan yang tersembunyi. Kajian terkait lebih diperdalam dengan metode studi pustaka dari berbagai sumber yang relevan. Supaya memperoleh data yang lebih akurat, penulis melakukan wawancara dengan Bapak Ismanto, seorang seniman pematung dari Muntilan, Jawa Tengah. Hasil penelitan yang diperoleh penulis menyatakan bahwa peranan Maria bukan saja sebagai Bunda Yesus, namun ia hadir sebagai Bunda Gereja. Berkat keibuaan Maria, Gereja tampil sebagai seorang ibu yang mengayomi anak-anak Allah. Karya seni merupakan sarana untuk mengekspresikan buah refleksi iman akan perjumpaan dengan Allah. Karya seni seringkali hanya dipandang sebagai hiasan saja, tanpa melihat secara lebih mendalam bahwa suatu karya seni ialah hasil dari permenungan seseorang. Setiap kali proses menciptakan karya seni, terdapat ‘jiwa’ yang tertinggal dalam hasil karya seni itu
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
“MOTIVATION” AND “GOD-IMAGE” OF INDONESIAN MIGRANT WORKERS IN HONG KONG
Get PDFThis paper explores the motivations and perceptions of God among Indonesian migrant workers in Hong Kong, focusing on their unique experiences and faith struggles. The study, guided by Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), is based on the narratives of five female migrant workers with 6-12 years of experience in Hong Kong. From our study, compassion is identified as a fundamental motivator for Indonesian migrant workers. The study finds that all respondents maintain a positive God-Image, perceiving God as their Helper, Caregiver, and source of strength. Their faith is identified as a core motivation for survival. The Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) is employed to illustrate this approach. Finally, this paper tries to contribute to offering a unique perspective on the lives of Indonesian migrant workers in Hong Kong, emphasizing the critical roles of compassion, faith, and a positive God-image in their experiences, and promoting a fresh approach to addressing their struggles
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
