    Iracema no cinema: nação e identidade na passagem do literário para o fílmico busca responder a uma interrogação principal bastante simples: como o cinema brasileiro se apropriou de uma das personagens mais importantes da literatura brasileira: a Iracema de José de Alencar? A pesquisa busca entender como tal personagem, chave na construção da ideia de nação no século XIX, foi ressignificada por outra forma artística, o cinema, em outro tempo e em outro contexto histórico e social. Trata-se, portanto, de um estudo comparado de textos da língua portuguesa: texto literário, Iracema (José de Alencar, 1865), e textos fílmicos, Iracema (Carlos Coimbra, 1974), Iracema (Jorge Bodanzky e Orlando Senna, 1974) e Cine Tapuia (Rosemberg Cariry, 2002), que, além de propor um modelo para análise da adaptação de obras literárias para o cinema, visa entender como se deu a projeção de temas e personagens do romance fundador para além do seu tempo histórico.Iracema on film: nation and identity from literary to the filmic seeks to answer a major question quite simple: how Brazilian cinema has appropriate of the most important characters of Brazilian literature, Iracema by José de Alencar? The present study investigates how this character, Iracema, central in the conception of the nation idea in the XIX century, was resignified by another artistc form, the cinema, in another time and in another historical and social context. This study, therefore, compares Portuguese language texts: literary text, Iracema (José de Alencar, 1865), and filmic texts, Iracema (Carlos Coimbra, 1974), Iracema (Jorge Bodanzky e Orlando Senna, 1974) and Cine Tapuia (Rosemberg Cariry, 2002).In addition to proposing a model for analyzing the adaptation of literary works for cinema, this study aims to understand how occurred the projection of themes and characters of the romance beyond its historical time

    \"Dom Casmurro sem Dom Casmurro\" tem como objetivo analisar o roteiro que a escritora Lygia Fagundes Telles e o crítico de cinema Paulo Emílio Salles Gomes fizeram a partir do livro Dom Casmurro de Machado de Assis para o filme Capitu (1968) do cineasta Paulo Cezar Saraceni. O livro que traz o tratamento do roteiro foi publicado pela Editora Siciliano, em 1993. A proposta do trabalho é comparar roteiro e obra, tendo como base os pontos principais levantados pela fortuna crítica do escritor, sobretudo os textos de Roberto Schwarz e John Gledson, e buscar um sentido, interpretar o conjunto de diferenças verificadas na passagem do livro ao roteiro para tentar entender a que tipo de leitura do romance de Machado de Assis as grandes e pequenas modificações promovidas pelo roteiro servem.The aim of \"Dom Casmurro Without Dom Casmurro\" is to analyze the script written by author Lygia Fagundes Telles and film critic Paulo Emílio Salles Gomes based on the book Dom Casmurrro by Machado de Assis for the film Capitu (1968), by filmmaker Paulo Cezar Saraceni. The book containing the script was published by Editora Siciliano in 1993. This thesis will compare the screenplay and the book based on the central issues arising from the writer\'s critical fortune - especially the texts by Roberto Schwarz and John Gledson - and find a meaning as well as interpret the differences found in the adaptation in order to try to understand how the large and small changes in the screenplay can offer a different interpretation of Machado de Assis\' novel

    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We 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 PDF
    We 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 text
    We 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
