"England expects..." and all that : the visual memory of Horatio Lord Nelson
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The project of this thesis has been to examine the results of the development of the reputation and concept of the historical figure of Horatio Nelson as symbol of masculinity from nearly the beginning of the myth-making and mythologizing in the nineteenth century to the present.There have been several studies recently that examine Nelson the myth, Nelson as legend, Nelson as hero: they study the process of the development of this character.As a result of the mythologizing the history of Horatio Nelson is likely lost.However the memory of Nelson -a very different thing and the focus of this thesis -has been reinforced through commemoration throughout the two centuries since his death coming to a logical conclusion in 2008.This was done in both the public sphere (in the form of monuments) and in the private sphere (Nelson was merchandised) with the logical result in the first part of the twenty-first century being a manifestation of Nelson in fan culture on the internet.He has now been essentialised, extrapolated, and used in a wide variety of ways to navigate masculinity by both genders.Nelson's style" 2 ), and of Admiral's Cheap Car Insurance in the UK. 3 The history of Horatio Nelson may be lost, but the memory of Nelson, famously constructed for public consumption, 4 has been reinforced through commemoration throughout the two centuries since his death.His memory has been fragmented to hold a variety of meanings in the twenty-first century. My personal introduction to the historicalfigure of Nelson came in the form of a cat.My family is not of English descent at all (primarily Irish, Welsh and Scottish), but on my father's side, lived in Ontario until the 1940s.As such, my grandfather used to read Chums magazine (for "The 1 W. C. Sellar and R. J. Yeatman.1066 And All That.(Penguin: Middlesex, England, 1960), pg. 5. 2 "Admiral Nelson's Spiced Rum." http://www.admiralnelsonsrum.com/index2.htm,(accessed April 6, 2008.) 3 "Admiral's Cheap Car Insurance."http://www.admiral.com/,(accessed April 6, 2008) 4 See, for example, Marianne Czisnik.Horatio Nelson: A Controversial Hero.

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.
