Reconstruction of the Original Text of Chang-tzŭ Hsiao-yao-yu-p'ien 荘子逍遥遊篇
Full text linkThe author makes a study into the four fables which are told in the present text of Hsiao-yao-yu-p’ien 逍遥遊篇 of Chuang-tzŭ 荘子. In examining the phraseology, such as the continuation of words, the sequence of themes and the sentence structure, the author notices first of all that in the first fable so many insertions were added to the text by later writers that the original meaning is likely to be misunderstood. Secondly, some parts of the original text of the second and third fables may have been left out in the course of time. Finally, there are considerable number of misplaced sentence in the fourth fable. Consequently, the author believes that the first three fables represent the philosophy of Chuang Chou 荘周 himself, but that the fourth one does not.Lu Tê-ming 陸徳明 wrote in his Ching-tien-shih-wên-hsü-lu 経典釈文序録 that the principal philosophy of Chuang Chou can be explained in four concepts—hsiao-yao 逍遥, tzŭ-jan 自然, wu-wei 無為 and ch’i-wu 斉物. Among 33 extant chapters of Chuang-tzŭ, there are two entitled Hsiao-yao and Ch’i-wu respectively. Bearing these facts in mind, one can assume that the original text of Chuang-tzŭ consisting of 52 chapters would have contained two chapters which were entitled Tzŭ-jan, Wu-wei respectively.In conclusion, the author further assumes that in the original Chuang-tzŭ, the first fable of the present Hsiao-yao-yu belonged to the chapter Hsiao-yao and the second and third fables to the Wu-wei.journal articl

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
