Performing Anglo Quebec: The Myth of Solitudes and (E)Merging Anglo-Québécois Subject
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Inspired by Alan Filewod's Performing Canada: The Nation Enacted in Imagined Theatre , this essay proposes that Premier Lucien Bouchard's Address to Anglophone Community of in wake of 1995 referendum and premiere of David Fennario's play, The Death of Rene Levesque , both of which took place at Montreal's Centaur Theatre, were performances of Anglo Quebec and enactments of an Anglo-Quebecois subject. The essay questions why sense of a distinct community and corresponding subject positions have not taken greater hold in aftermath of these performances, and hypothesizes a competition of narratives between a myth of two solitudes on one side and an emerging Anglo-Quebecois subject on other. In contrast to tenor of most discussions of the subject, this essay proposes that an accumulation of subject positions might have positive consequence of a subject being recognized, accepted, and given a voice. While acknowledging signs of emergence, essay analyses how a myth of two solitudes continues to erase Anglo-Quebecois subjectivity.

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.
