Time‐Spirit in German Literature DURING the period previous to the war the German stage took its inspiration from the contemporary dramatists; the theatre and literary production were almost one. Authors like Gerhard Hauptmann and Wedekind, at that time both representatives of modern dramatic art, wrote plays for the five main theatres such as the Deutsche, Hebbel and Lessing Theatre, whilst Ibsen and Strindberg were well introduced on the German stage. Reinhardt frequently availed himself of the plays of Stucken, Schnitzler and Eulenberg, the most popular dramatic authors of that period, whilst the Konigliche Schauspielhaus (Royal theatre) was marked by performances of a more antiquated taste inspired by the Kaiser's conservatism in art. On the whole, it may be stated that the repertoire of all the leading theatres in Berlin was rich and carefully selected. Classical plays, chiefly Shakespeare, were performed and interpreted in the most perfect manner; the same refers to the Russian drama, Stanislawski, Chechow, Tolstoi and Gorki being at that time introduced. Thus the German pre‐war theatre fulfilled a high cultural mission because the author was interpreted in the sense and spirit of his works, plays being selected for the sake of art, and not of sensation or monetary profit.

Bibliometric and webometric methods for assessing research collaboration Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe the methods and findings of a pilot study which applied bibliometrics and webometrics to examine collaboration in Malaysian biotechnology. Design/methodology/approach The research applied bibliometric and webometric methods to publications and web sites affiliated with Malaysian institutions. The bibliometric analysis focused on biotechnology‐related journal articles indexed in Web of Knowledge. The webometric analysis examined the web sites of top biotechnology institutions generated in the bibliometric analysis. Collaboration behaviour was assessed in three ways: intra‐institutional versus inter‐institutional; national versus international collaboration; and by type of institution collaboration according to the triple helix model. Findings Findings of the pilot study, which applied bibliometric and webometric analyses to a limited sample, indicate that the methodologies will collect the desired data for a more extensive study. Research limitations/implications The quantitative research results describe the collaboration evident in publications and web sites, but not why it has happened in such a way. Practical implications The methodologies provide a framework for similar research exploring the impacts of collaboration in an e‐research environment. The methodology is innovative and practical in terms of the combined use of bibliometric and webometric analyses. Originality/value This is one of few studies that has examined collaboration using both bibliometric and webometric methods, and elements of the methodology appear to be unique to the study. The methodologies will contribute to an emerging body of literature that explores the nature of research productivity and research collaboration.
