«Vrayment voicy de plaisans fous»: la folie dans le théâtre profane de Marguerite de Navarre
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study shows that the dialectics of wisdom and folly, which owes a great deal to the relativization of reason in Renaissance culture, undergoes an original development in Marguerite de Navarre’s “secular” theater. While in these plays Marguerite uses figures of folly which inscribe themselves in the tradition represented by the late-medieval wordly fool, or Erasmus’s wise fool, she also creates the figure of the spiritual fool, who draws from both divine science and mystical ecstasy. The protagonists of four of Marguerite’s plays, Le Mallade, L’Inquisiteur, Trop, Prou, Peu, Moins, and the Comédie jouée au Mont de Marsan (written between 1535 and 1547), embody spiritual folly to an increasingly sublime degree, from the docta ignorantia up to mystic rapture. This exceeds, however, not only Erasmus’s conception but also that of the spiritual influences on the queen (Guillaume Briçonnet, Marguerite Porete) and appears to be her own invention, by means of which she expresses the most radical spiritual aspirations of a soul in search of God.

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.
