Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT In the mid-seventeenth century, vegetarianism acquires both a new political energy and a new philosophical narrative of origins. Andrew Marvell's and John Milton's contemporaries across the political spectrum are increasingly invested for differing reasons in an Eden in which plants and people nourish each other in innocence. Marvell in “The Garden” builds on this narrative, imagining a Paradise in which fruits offer themselves to the speaker in a strenuous and sexualized consumption. Milton in Paradise Lost partly adopts Marvell's vegetarian passions, as his Eve both loves and eats her amorous Edenic garden. Both Marvell and Milton, however, distance themselves in different ways from any direct correlations between Eve's vegetarian cuisine and the innocence of Eden. Although both poets invoke the vegetarians' myth of origins, they also avoid some of the correlative theories of gender and purity with which that philosophy was often elided.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
