Il 'ciclo di Ligdamo' nel terzo libro del Corpus Tibullianum. Analisi intratestuale delle elegie e applicazione della stilometria computazionale a questioni di attribuzione
No full textNel presente articolo si analizzano i primi sei componimenti del terzo libro del Corpus Tibullianum, noti, nel complesso, con la denominazione convenzionale di ‘ciclo di Ligdamo’, la cui attribuzione è tutt’ora incerta ed oggetto di discussione. In una prima parte dell’elaborato, si discutono i risultati dell’analisi intratestuale, impiegata per le elegie di Ligdamo e per le prime tre elegie del primo libro del Corpus Tibullianum (selezionate come modello campione su cui basarsi per l’individuazione delle caratteristiche stilistiche proprie di tutta l’opera tibulliana, data la sostanziale omogeneità dello stile compositivo dell’autore), mediante la quale si è tentato di estrapolare i caratteri peculiari del modus scribendi di Ligdamo e di Tibullo, con la finalità ultima di operare un confronto puntuale fra i due. La seconda sezione del lavoro è dedicata invece alla descrizione degli esperimenti di analisi stilometrica – effettuati mediante il programma JGAAP – condotti, in via preliminare, su un corpus di autori noti (composto dalle elegie attribuite con certezza a Tibullo e dai quattro libri di elegie di Properzio), al fine di selezionare i parametri più confacenti all’analisi stilometrica su testi poetici in latino classico, seguita da un’esposizione dei successivi esperimenti di analisi stilometrica rivolti alle elegie del ‘ciclo di Ligdamo’ con finalità attribuzionistiche. Queste ultime sono state confrontate con i primi due libri del Corpus Tibullianum, i quattro libri di elegie di Properzio, i libri I e III degli Amores ed il libro I dei Tristia di Ovidio e, infine, con alcuni componimenti in distici elegiaci di Catullo. I risultati dell’analisi stilometrica hanno condotto ad interessanti riflessioni in relazione alla possibilità di confermare le tesi attualmente prevalenti negli studi attribuzionistici su Ligdamo, che propendono per una collocazione della vita e dell’opera dell'autore nel I sec. d.C
Ai “margini” della letteratura. La Consolatio ad Liviam nel contesto della letteratura antica pseudoepigrafa e le sue interpretazioni dalla prima età moderna ai giorni nostri
No full textThis paper examines the reception of Consolatio ad Liviam, with particular attention to the interpretations that have been proposed by scholars from the sixteenth century until the most recent years. Special emphasis is placed on the commentaries, which allow for the formulation of a set of shared opinions regarding the poem
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
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
