Le philosophe chez Vélasquez : l’intrusion de Michel Foucault dans la fortune critique des Ménines
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article compares Michel Foucault's analysis of Velazquez' Las Meninas and the critical production inspired by the approach of the philosopher with the more conventional interpretation of the work by specialists of Spanish painting. Examining in detail the diverging strategies of the “theoreticians” and the “scholars,” it attempts to map out the conceptual horizon as well as the methodological procedures of both camps. One important point of divergence between the two groups is the result of Foucault's interest in the “apparatus” of the painting, as opposed to a concern for its narrative and symbolic content. This implies a passage from the “what” to the “how” of representation, from reference to self-reference and a privileging of structural functions over or before considerations of social status. The study also considers some repressed elements in the Foucauldian approach, from gender relations to the pictorial treatment of the work.

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.
