Abstract
Abstract Through a network of verbal echoes and allusions, Ovid invites readers to forge connections between three events disparate in time and in their placement in the Fasti: the rape and suicide of Lucretia (2.685-852); the death of Remus (4.807-62); and the murder of Servius Tullius (6.585-636). The many lexical and thematic correspondences between these regal narratives have largely gone unnoticed yet combine to offer powerful statements about the relationship of Rome’s past to its present and future. The narratives expose concerns about the reemergence of monarchic power and tensions within the domus Augusta brought about by deaths, scandals, and dynastic struggles. Together the three narratives can be read as a meditation on contemporary political affairs in late Augustan and early Tiberian Rome.

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
