No full textThis propeller was built in 1911 by Great Lakes Engineering Works, Ecorse, Michigan. She was owned by Interstate Steamship Company, Cleveland, Ohio then Astabula, Ohio, until 1949, when she was sold to Jones & Laughlin Steel Corporation, Ashtabula, Ohio. In 1952, she was sold to Wilson Marine Transit Company, Cleveland, Ohio, and she became "C. L. Austin." She was sold to Kinsman Marine Transit Company, Cleveland, Ohio, in 1973. In 1975, she was bought by S & E Shipping Corporation, Cleveland, Ohio. During her time as "Willis L. King," she collided with and sank steamer "Superior City," below Whitefish Point, Lake Superior, August 20, 1920 and suffered $30,000 loss. She also collided with steamer "Pontiac" in fog, twelve miles above Soo, May 31, 1926. She arrived in Astabula, Ohio, for scrapping by Triad Salvage, July 31, 1984
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
The Fables of Aesop
No full textIdentical with the Illustrated Edition volume of the same year except for a different cover and paper that makes the book about 1/4 as thick. Excellent runs on Bennett's black-and-white drawings. I will keep the extra copy in the collection.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)Willis L. Parke
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
The Fables of Aesop (small format)
No full textI cannot believe that I have found yet another different format of a Bennett edition! This one is almost identical with the 1857/1931 edition by World Publishing in Cleveland. It thus has a small format and thin pages. The covers and endpapers are different. Dated by Paul H. Schmidt December 7, 1940.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)This book has a dust jacket (book cover)Willis L. Parke
