Abstract
This reading of Alice Munro’s Juliet trilogy, in Runaway (2004), proposes an analysis of the sequence of three stories as one that simultaneously establishes connections and undermines them. As a result, Juliet’s migrations, from one period of her life to another, from one part of Canada to another, from one story to the next, both lead to a build-up of experience that lends itself to interpretation, and to a questioning of the meaning to be attributed to that experience. This is achieved in various ways: through mythological interpretation (and counter-interpretation) of her life; through the choice of a trilogy, by contrast in particular with a dyad; through the very functioning of the trilogy as pictorial tryptich that allows the circulation and therefore the instability and liveliness of sensations; and through the changing meaning of words, that convey evolving emotions and ways of feeling. In these different ways, Munro once more reports acute feelings, while leaving the narrative open to interpretation.

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 it
