Bibliographic record
Abstract
70 / Renaissance and Reformation / Renaissance et Réforme becomes rather obtrusive.Certainly more recent scholarship on the experience and social make-up of seventeenth-century Mennonites is much less negative.This point leads us to the one major drawback of van Deursen's important study, one that is likely not his fault.Why did it take ten years to see the work appear in English translation?Van Deursen's excellent and balanced analysis of Dutch society deserves to have had an international audience much sooner.Research conducted by Dutch scholars on popular religion, culture and witchcraft, for example, has virtually exploded in the last decade.As a result, some of Plain Lives* conclusions seem outdated by the fascinating findings published since 1981.On the whole, however, van Deursen*s study deserves to be read by all those interested in understanding the world that was early modem Netherlands.Written in a highly readable and engaging fashion, marvellously blending anecdotal and scientific evidence, Plain Lives provides a solid evidentiary basis for arguing that the experience of early modem Dutch people diverged considerably from that of their contemporaries elsewhere.Students of European social history will find it a well-documented study proving that the experience of common people in that period was not uniformly bleak.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
