Citazioni e riferimenti (in "Ragiona", sito su Scientology)

English section: INTRODUCTION

These are the books, volumes and study materials to which is referred into this site. Into the section "LIST OF CITATIONS AND REFERENCES OF WORKS OF L.RON HUBBARD OR SCIENTOLOGY" after the title of a work there are four fields or areas, that are named A, B, C and D, which contain:

Field A:

it may be empty (if from that work is not taken any citation) or made up of one or more lines; in this last case each line represents one of the pages from which are taken the citations, and contains:

1) The number of the page from which come the citations.

2) The number of citations taken from that page.

3) In the end, depending on the number of citations, one or more numbers that represent the number of lines of each citation of that page.

Example: if from page 40 are taken two citations, the first of five lines and the second of three lines, then it will be shown (in Italian):

"Pag.40; n.citazioni: 2; n.linee: 5, 3"

Field B: the total number of quoted lines for that work.

Field C: the highest (or almost the highest) number of lines that a page of the quoted work may have. This value is determined choising a page full or almost full of text lines, and then counting them.

Field D: the number of pages of the quoted work.

Field E: this field usually is not present. If it is present, it indicates the number of total lines of the whole quoted work. This value also includes the text lines that are located into the images, only if these lines are legible and are containing (a) words that have letters of the English alphabet or (b) numbers.

For "line" is intended here a text line that has at least one word or number.

In all these fields the sentences are in Italian, but you can ignore the words; just look at the numbers.

If the same passage is quoted more than one time into this site, is reported in this page only one time.

If into the site are quoted a little passage and a big passage, and the little one is contained into the big one, in this page is reported only the big one.

The function of this page is to allow confronting the number of quoted lines and the number of pages of the quoted work, in obedience to the copyright and fair use laws.

In same cases even the citation of the title of a chapter or sub-chapter is counted.

Single citations referred to more than one work

The works of Scientology have a characteristic: they may have one or more parts in common. Two examples: (a) the part at the beginning into almost all the books of Scientology, that is the "Important Note", (b) and certain chapters that may be situated into more of one book, even with slight modifications.

So it may happen that when into this site is quoted a passage of a work, this passage may be situated also in another work, and so also in those that are not treated into this site. But the nature of this Internet site (of instructive and non-profit type) and the kind of the citations (mostly are short parts of sub-chapters), characterize the work as legitimate.

For any questions just mail to me, the address is in the home page.
