Abstract
Through the examination of a number of archival sources and legislation from the late fourteenth to the eighteenth century, this study looks at the phenomenon of the female scold in pre-modern Portugal. Municipal records from certain regions indicate that local officials were confronted with disturbances caused by the scold, and royal ordinances outlined the jurisdiction for sentencing scolds. At both levels of government, the scold was persistently depicted as female. Moreover, a few elite male writers highlighted the problem with the quarrelsome woman, and offered their misogynist solutions to this perceived problem. The study concludes with an analysis of a decision rendered by Lisbon’s municipal council in the second half of the eighteenth century, a decision that aimed to abolish the office that dealt with scolding women.

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 it
