Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper opens up English poet Siegfried Sassoon’s nostalgia by considering it in pathological terms, that is, by seeing it in relation to both Johannes Hofer’s aetiological coinage (nostos, return to one’s native land; algos, pain or distress) and the war neurosis which developed from his experiences on the Western Front. Focusing on his portrayal of childhood and quasi-epiphanic moments in his autobiographical volumes, The Old Century (1938) and The Weald of Youth (1942), and several poems of this period, I situate his nostalgia in the context of Stephen Spender’s discussion of the nostalgic qualities of both Victorian aesthetics and high modernism, arguing that Sassoon’s accentuated moments of childhood embed his writing in the modernist tradition he strove to escape.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
