Dave veut jouer Richard III: Interrogating the Shakespearean Body in Québec
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Shakespeare has always served francophone Québec as a site of difference. He has been both a rival to Molière and an agent of the British and anglo-Canadian other. His work has been emulated and denigrated, parodied and defaced. Even when admired, the performance of Shakespeare in Québec has never been uncontaminated by its multiple colonial associations; thus, Québec adaptations of Shakespeare have also been a site of resistance: Michel Garneau’s 1978 “translation” of Macbeth into Québécois, for example, demonstrated in the context of his nationalist project that Québécois was not merely a dialect but a language, one that had the maturity and the flexibility to render the words of even Le grand Will. At the same time, given Garneau’s sense of Québec’s otherness of language, culture and politics, the ostensible act of translation could not be other than an act of adaptation – or tradaptation, the word he coined – in which Shakespeare’s Scotland became “notre pauvre pays,” the victim of a tyrannical oppressor (Brisset 199-297 and passim).

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.
