Acoustic and instrumental data files for Silent sonorants chapter in Phonological Rarities
This is a set of electropalatographic, electrolaryngographic, video and audio files with Praat textgrids and images relating to: Janet C. E. Watson, Barry Heselwood, Gisela Tomé Lourido, Amer al-Kathiri & Abdullah al-Mahri. 2025. Silent sonorant articulations in Mehri and Shehret. In Natalia Kuznetsova, Cormac Anderson & Shelece Easterday (eds.), Rarities in phonetics and phonology: Structural, typological, evolutionary, and social dimensions, 477–529.

Electropalatographic files are noted by the extension .EPG, Electrolaryngographic files are noted ELG in the file name, the video files have the extension .mpg. All acoustic files were recorded at 44kHz. Electropalatographic (EPG) videos are provided, noted by the extension .mvi. The files are numbered by image number as they appear in the chapter. The EPG video files include supplementary videos, which relate to the EPG discussion, but are not included in the chapter. A powerpoint is provided with EPG videos of the EPG files included in the chapter. Additional supplementary files are noted by 'S' before the figure number: e.g., Fig. S2 is the second supplementary video file. Recordings were produced under ethical approval from the Arts, Humanities and Cultures Faculty Ethics Committee at the University of Leeds (FAHC 19-046).</p

Laryngographic files relating to Mehri and Shehret consonants, Modern South Arabian
A set of Laryngographic files for the consonants in different phonological environments in the Modern South Arabian languages, Mehri and Shehret (also known as Jibbali). They were recorded between 2011 and 2022 by Janet Watson, in collaboration with Abdullah al-Mahri, Abd al-Aziz al-Mahri, Ibrahim al-Mahri, Amer al-Kathiri, Said Baquir, Saeed al-Mahri, Ali al-Mahri, Musallam Ali al-Mahri and Nasser al-Afari. The files are given in one of two forms: DATE_LANGUAGE_CODENAME_TOPIC NAME_CODENAME_DATE_TOPIC Where the language is not provided in the codename, it can be identified from the codename. M001 is the first Mehri speaker. J028 is the 28th Shehret/Jibbali speaker. For the bilingual speakers, J001 and M026, Mehri is stated for J001 in the case of Mehri files. All his other files are Shehret. For M026, Mehri or Shehret appears in the file name to distinguish the language. TOPIC is given as syllable structure of words recorded, e.g. CiiCvvC; the set of consonants examined, as in: finalaspiratedsonorants or geminates; a consonant within a specific word, as in: aghaas 'her brother'; or a consonant that is being investigated in different contexts, e.g. g, s. When given individually and not in words, the emphatic consonants are written in capitals followed by '1', as in T1 for the emphatic 'T', or by '-', as in 'S-' for the emphatic 'S'. The lateral sibilants are given with following 'l', as in 'sl' for the plain voiceless lateral sibilant, or 'zl' for the plain voiced lateral sibilant Some of the prompt lists are provided in the set in word files. The files can be examined laryngographically through Laryngograph's Speech Studio software: https://www.laryngograph.com/pr_studio.htm.

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
