Greek Philosophy in the New Millenium: Essays in Honour of Thomas M. Robinson
Bibliographic record
Abstract
While appearing to be a conventional Festschrift in honour of a reputed Professor of Philosophy at the University of Toronto, this book includes a unique collection of essays by a number of distinguished scholars, from an impressive number of countries, on current changes in the field of ancient philosophy (some might say resistance to change) as globalization profoundly affects local culture and the education of new generations seems likely to be transformed in significant ways. The essays have been organized largely in geographical order, starting with Professor Robinson’s adopted country, Canada, and ending with the linguistic community (and geographical area) more strictly linked with what we have become accustomed to calling ‘ancient philosophy’: modern Greece. Through our journey, which takes us through the Americas, the Pacific area (Australia, Japan, China) and Europe, readers will be pleased to discover how a widening interest in ancient philosophy has recently spread to a remarkable number of ‘new’ countries, some of which have traditionally been thought of as on the margins of (if not strictly outside) the established scholarly community. Although this work is a tribute to a well-known and admired scholar, it is also meant to interest the entire scholarly community of ancient (primarily Greek) philosophy, philosophers and classicists alike: Readers wanting to inform themselves about the status of ancient philosophy in a changing and multifaceted world will find here very much to discover.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
