Reading Mobility Narratives: Locality and Motion in François Bon’s Paysage Fer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Mobilities have progressively emerged as a primary focus of enquiry for the critical understanding of global structures and processes. This increased awareness is without a doubt a direct measure of the many complexities contemporary mobilities compel us to unpack. While the connections between globalization and mobilities are by now well documented in a number of social and human sciences (namely sociology, cultural anthropology and human geography), less attention has been paid to the potential relevance of a literary inquiry into contemporary mobilities, particularly with respect to works closely attentive to local settings. Focused on François Bon’s Paysage fer (2000), this essay aims precisely to interrogate how the text provides a particularly insightful mobility narrative that intersects with a range of critical issues and prompts a renewed understanding of the coextensive relation between locality and motion.

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; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
