Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Au cours du xviiie siècle, le développement du système esclavagiste dans les Antilles britanniques attira de nombreux colons désireux de mener une carrière transatlantique. Clercs, intendants, comptables et autres professionnels vinrent ainsi grossir les rangs de ceux qui s’enrichissaient grâce au labeur des esclaves africains. Parmi ceux-ci, les médecins occupaient une place particulière car les soins qu’ils apportaient aux esclaves visaient à atténuer les effets destructeurs et débilitants du système plantaire. Cet article se concentre sur trois médecins écossais, collègues, travaillant sur l’île de la Dominique dans les années 1790. En s’appuyant notamment sur le journal intime de l’un d’entre eux, cette étude a pour ambition de confronter les différences dans leur pratique médicale et d’interroger l’influence du système esclavagiste sur leur approche scientifique et leurs motivations personnelles. Ce faisant, il dresse un portrait de la violence du quotidien de cette société coloniale.

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.
