Abstract
ABSTRACT: Zora Neale Hurston’s desire to dramatize the folklore she collected in the late 1920s is well known. While some have argued that her anthropological training under Franz Boas conflicted with her creative impulses, Folk Modernism: Hurston’s Gestural Drama takes the view that her innovative work in the theatre is a productive synthesis of the modernist impulse toward rupture and rhythmic form, of an international interest in the 1930s in the cultural resonances of “gesture,” and of Hurston’s own dynamic notion of “gesture [in] place of words,” first articulated in 1928. For Hurston, gesture is not supplementary to language but rather the inverse: language is a kind of gesture. In Cold Keener (1930) and Woofing (1931), she develops a drama in which words and movements transmit a culture’s characteristic rhythms – in this case, the culture of rural black Southerners in their everyday labour and leisure. Spunk (1935) and Polk County (1944), aiming for white audience acceptance, conventionalize gestural drama.

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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
