Abstract
This article focuses on the 2004 publication, Troubling Women’s Studies: Pasts, Presents and Possibilities. In 2005, a colleague and I used Troubling Women’s Studies in our graduate feminist theory course, and this analysis highlights student responses to the book with a particular focus on epistemology, pedagogy and identity. My rationale for making the book central is that when students study Troubling Women’s Studies, they often confront their expectations of the discipline which has perhaps been idealized by them. Through questioning not only the power, but also the limitations, of foundational narratives in women’s studies, it is possible that one might undergo a loss of attachment (or at least a critical encounter with an attachment that may engender a loss). In this regard, I reflect upon how the work of teaching and learning Troubling Women's Studies produces such losses and can be productive for re-animating the field.

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.
