Abstract
Marcel Proust comes to literary maturity at a watershed moment in the evolution of late nineteenth- to early twentieth-century thinking about illness. On the one hand, he is the uneasy inheritor of nineteenth-century obsessions about hysteria and maladies of the nervous system. Many of his characters suffer from problems of the nerves, his asthmatic Narrator in the first instance, not to speak of Proust's friends such as the writers Daniel Halévy and Anna de Noailles. At another level, the fin de siècle is preoccupied with the idea of degeneration, both of the tainted individual and of society itself, and traces of this sense of downwardness persist in the final volumes of À la recherche du temps perdu. A more specific, personal problem posed itself for Proust as the century turned: in 1898, a prominent French psychiatrist was still writing that most doctors considered ‘sexual inversion, the spontaneous sensual, sentimental or intellectual attraction to a person of the same sex, as a sign of degeneracy’.

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.
