Abstract
Historical Refl ections/Réfl exions HistoriquesI n the last 30 years the focus of medieval scholars has turned increasingly to nontraditional subjects, especially to women, children, and marginalized others in medieval society.I am proud to say that this journal has contributed to these new debates and explorations, notably in special issues in 2004 and 2016. 1 In examining formerly invisible "Others," medievalists have changed the discourse of the past to one that is both more inclusive and more equivocal: no longer can the certainties that shaped, for example, the nineteenth century's view of the past as populated by public males and private females, and energized by the confi dent triumphalism of Western Christianity, be maintained.Organizations such as the Society for Medieval Feminist Scholarship and the Gender and Medieval Studies (GMS) Group have been at the forefront of promoting discourses of difference in the medievalist community.Indeed, the annual conferences sponsored by GMS have served as meeting places for junior and senior scholars from all over the world to engage in conversation, encouragement, and advocacy for continuing to challenge traditional and male-dominated perspectives of the past.Publications coming out of the GMS conferences, including the special issue of HR/RH in spring 2016, which features articles developed from papers presented at the University of Winchester in January 2014, have brought the presentations and discussions of the group into wider focus. 2 This special issue combines articles derived from the same GMS conference held at Winchester in January 2014-this time focusing on issues of wom en, gender, and law-and articles derived from a meeting of the Mid-America Medieval Association (MAMA) held at the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) in April 2013, which was dedicated to the memory of the late Shona Kelly Wray, associate professor of history at UMKC, whose untimely and tragic death had occurred in the previous May.This combined special issue encapsulates both the tremendous range of topics, sources, and methodologies now being developed by medieval scholars who focus on

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; the direct Gemma label and the distilled Codex classifier agree on what is shown here.
