Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

One of the best-known features of William Shakespeare's Macbeth is its alias. The alias suggests that the play's Scottishness is its defining characteristic, which is debatable. Given that the eighteenth century was notable for both Shakespeare's cultural elevation and for outbreaks of Anglo-Scottish hostility, Macbeth's theatrical presentation in the period is of particular interest. When David Garrick played Macbeth in the production that dominated the London stage for a quarter of a century, he was dressed in contemporary breeches, stockings, waistcoat, and over-jacket as depicted in the portrait by Zoffany. Innovations in theatre-design in the Restoration had ensured that perspectival scenes, created by means of a series of painted, moving screens, were a standard feature of the theatrical experience. The publication of The Three Conjurors marked a new stage in the afterlife of Macbeth, at which the play's national traits became central.

Not 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.
