Déplacements dans Sophie's Choice de William Styron : Du texte de la valeur à la valeur du texte
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The paper is an interrogation of what the value of literary texts could consist in. My starting point is an analysis of William Styron's novel Sophie's Choice in which the question of Auschwitz as well as that of slavery in 19th century America are addressed. The book explicitly offers readers several theories of value. Can we move from definitions of value found inside the text to a conceptual understanding of the value of a text? I offer a number of hypotheses that are bound up with the notion of choice. Our problem is thus: how can we effect choices with the fullest perception of their implications? It should be clear from what precedes that reading, re-reading and interpreting a literary text is a activity inextricably linked to the deepest levels of our identity. I accordingly propose that literary theory ought to incorporate both ethical and pragmatic considerations.

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.
