Abstract
Someone in need of a first orientation about the origins and the early history of monasticism, whether in the West or in the East, might feel confused and lost. Only one generation ago, a volume like this would have started in the Greek East with chapters on Antony and the Desert Fathers, Pachomius and the origins of cenobitism, Basil and his Rule; then moved on to the Latin West with Martin, Lérins, Caesarius of Arles (d. 542) and his Rule for nuns, Benedict and the Regula Benedicti (RB); continued further north with Columbanus (d. 615) and Irish monasticism; returned to the Continent with Anglo-Saxon monks; and concluded with Benedict of Aniane and the triumph of the RB in Carolingian times.

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
