“Far More Complicated Than That”: The Encounter Between the Jesuits and the Anishinabek of Holy Cross Mission, Manitoulin Island, 1844-1852
Bibliographic record
Abstract
I am grateful to contribute to this issue, which honours the work and scholarship of Carl Starkloff, S.J. I first met Carl in 1992 when I was a seminarian in the Congregation of St. Basil (Basilian Fathers) studying at the Toronto School of Theology (TST). Being of Anishinabe ancestry, and a member of M'Chigeeng First Nation on Manitoulin Island, I wanted to complement my own theological formation at TST by participating in the monthly sessions held at the Anishinabe Spiritual Centre. At that time, Carl was a part of a team of several Jesuits and Sisters of St. Joseph who were facilitating the scriptural, theological and pastoral training of Native men and women on and around Manitoulin Island for ordained ministry and Christian leadership. I was greatly encouraged by what I witnessed during the Native Ministry sessions. Using methods that facilitated a shared reflection on Anishinabe culture and Christian faith, a rich and unique contextual theology was emerging among the Anishinabe Christians of Manitoulin Island and its environs. As a professional guide, teacher and facilitator at the Anishinabe Spiritual Centre, Carl has played an important role in the development of the emerging Anishinabe contextual theology. This modest contribution to his festschrift hopes to serve as a grateful acknowledgement of Carl's two-decade commitment to the encouragement and support of an Anishinabe Christian leadership and serving as a professional resource in the development of an Anishinabe grass roots theology.

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.
