Arts and Humanities Citation Index

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI) is a citation index of over 1,000 of the world's leading arts and humanities journals.

It was originally developed by the Institute for Scientific Information, which was later acquired by Thomson Scientific. It provides access to current and retrospective bibliographic information and cited references. It also covers individually selected, relevant items from approximately 7,000 of the world's leading science and social sciences journals. As well as this, in 2000, it published a list of the most frequently cited works in the field of the arts and humanities in the previous seven years (i.e. from 1993-2000). The A&HCI can be accessed online through Web of Science.

The list compiled below is based on the A&HCI publication in the year 2000 of the most frequently cited individuals/works in the last 7 years, i.e. from 1993-2000. The top 10 were, in order of highest to lowest frequency, as follows:

1. Karl Marx

2. Vladimir Ilyich Lenin

3. William Shakespeare

4. Aristotle

5. the Bible

6. Plato

7. Sigmund Freud

8. Noam Chomsky

9. Friedrich Hegel

10. Cicero

Noam Chomsky is the only living member of the above list.
