Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The war in Angola represented one of the hot spots of the Cold War. Despite the length of the conflict and the number of warring parties involved, relatively little attention has been paid to the ways in which South African literature represented this conflict. This article focuses on the relationship between text and image, between literature and photojournalism. For Etienne van Heerden (“My Cuban” and “My Afrikaner”) and Mark Behr (The smell of apples), literature is capable of exposing ideological regimentation, the role of state apparatuses in creating a captive audience, and the mechanisms that perpetuated apartheid mentality and endorsed South African foreign policies. These literary works, and their relationship to war photography, are also indicative of the relatively marginal yet revealing position South African cultural texts hold in global mediascapes focused on the Cold War.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
