"Il sera important de me mander le détail de toutes choses": Knowledge and Transatlantic Communication from the Sulpician Mission in Canada, 1668–1680
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Missionnaires en Nouvelle-France, les prêtres de la Compagnie de Saint-Sulpice ont produit énormément d'informations et une importante correspondance, échangée entre le Canada et la France sous le régime français. Cet article poursuit un double but: il s'agit de montrer, d'une part, comment cette institution religieuse a collecté et disséminé des connaissances sur la colonie et, d'autre part, de démontrer comment le supérieur général, Louis Tronson (1676–1699), a utilisé son réseau en Nouvelle-France afin de gagner en faveur et en influence à la cour de France. Ainsi à travers le cas de la mission sulpicienne de Kenté, située sur la côte nord du Lac Ontario, se révèle sous un jour nouveau le rôle joué par les institutions religieuses comme celle de Saint-Sulpice dans la formation et l'administration d'un Atlantique français au dix-septième siècle.

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.
