Abstract
The Tom and Jerry burlettas of the early 1820s, prefigured as they were by a string of what one might call ‘Giovanni in XYZ’ plays of the late 1810s, mark the maturity of a genuine public plebeian dramatic sphere located at the heart of London. Whatever the arguments which might be posited about the degree of permeability of plebeian public sphere of drama this book has outlined, there clearly existed a large body of dramatic writing which had little to do with the literary canon or even the national heritage of spoken drama. The regulatory framework, and its bewildering legal and cultural intricacies, ensured that Romantic-period drama outside of the patent playhouses would develop differently from the five-act spoken format of play derived from the era of Shakespeare or the Restoration. The manner in which this drama increasingly reflected or embodied consciously working-class aspirations or sentiments may be more open to discussion, but it seems quite clear that the playhouses and playwrights themselves felt they were in the middle of a new phenomenon of class and dramaturgy. Even the Adelphi, with the hit of Moncrieff’s Tom and Jerry firmly on its hands in late 1821, staged its own comment about the revolution in taste, which was increasingly a devolution towards the representation of the artisan, Cockney, public who comprised their audiences. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

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.
