Abstract
From the last quarter of the fifteenth century onward, a large number of Middle Dutch texts containing the life of Christ were printed and dispersed in the Netherlands. In a recent study, an exploration of the previously not widely studied 'Lives of Jesus', Koen Goudriaan pointed out a remarkable discontinuity between the circulation of these texts in manuscript and print. Furthermore, the corpus of 'Lives' could be divided into two basic textual forms: an 'epical' type and a type in which the content of the text is arranged according to liturgical 'hours' or 'points'. Goudriaan suggested that the discontinuity between manuscript and print, and the division in epical and liturgical styles, is related to the intended and actual readership of these texts. This contribution contains a case-study on three different Middle Dutch 'Lives' that contain a more or less complete version of the life of Christ: the Tractaet vanden leven ons Heren Jesu Christi, Tboeck vanden leven Jhesu Christi and Dat leven ons liefs heren Jhesu Christi. Concentrating on the printing history, the previous history of the texts and the actual readership of these three 'Lives', we can conclude that the discontinuity and the division in two types of texts within the corpus of 'Lives of Jesus' are not so much related to the reading public (religious people or laity), but rather to the different and various functions each one of the texts fulfilled within late medieval religious life.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
