Abstract
Modern geographers have tended to reimagine their discipline with very little acknowledgement of a disciplinary past. The relative absence of reference to the work of Paul Vidal de la Blache in the current geographical literature illustrates this disciplinary amnesia. In Anglophone literature, Vidal is recognized for his impact in other disciplines. In geography, his work has moved from that of a classic that is reread by succeeding generations to being part of the acknowledged but largely unread geographical canon. In part this is a consequence of the narrow interpretation that links Vidal’s legacy to the changing fortunes of Anglo-American regional geography. The recent reconsideration of Vidal’s last publication, La France de L’Est (Lorraine-Alsace) , has suggested a more multidimensional Vidal. These rereadings have concentrated on political geography. However, he also engaged themes related to those found in the writings of his contemporaries, Durkheim and Dewey. Durkheim and Dewey have been common reference points in current scholarship in ways that have thus far eluded Vidal.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
