Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The concluding chapter divides Borges’ medievalism into three epochs of his life, beginning with the last. In the last 15 years of his life, perhaps influenced by Maria Kodama, Borges prepared some quite authoritative and intriguing texts, no longer adapting Old English and Old Norse into Spanish or revisiting ideas in his own work, but now translating closely and accurately. In his middle years, Borges approached the Germanic medieval as something of a scholar and thinker, preparing several different analyses of this material, revivifying it in a modernized bestiary, and writing many poems and short stories based on medieval ideas or partaking of medievalist motifs. Finally, in his youth and young adulthood, Borges engaged largely in knowledge of the English medieval, writing many reviews of medievalist and medieval texts, and beginning his lifelong work on the kenning.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
