Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The article investigates how two thirteenth-century T-O maps in the British Library Map Psalter interact with their textual setting. The maps occupy the two sides of a single folio. On the recto is a pictorial world map with 91 place names; on the verso, a list map indicates 75 provinces and 77 cities within Asia, Africa, and Europe. The maps occupy a unique place within the history of medieval cartography because they are the only mappaemundi extant within a Book of Psalms. The specific relationship between the maps and the texts of the psalms is, however, less studied. I propose that the maps allude to the content of the psalms and complement images in the historiated initials, cultivating exegesis, prayer, and contemplation.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
