Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Ezra Pound was preoccupied with both time and space. But he developed a spatial poetics in order to transform experiences of time into intense moments of relationality and supra-historical awareness. His earlier discovery of a “method of Luminous Detail” was further confirmed by Ernest Fenollosa’s theory of the ideogram. What interested Pound was the superposition of historical and cultural meanings in the present, or, more precisely, in the textual present of the Cantos. It is not that Pound wanted to suppress time; superposition is for him simply the mode of being in the present, which is compounded into the same process of transmission, mediation, translation, and rewriting. Pound’s ideograms slow down the monolinear movement of narrative to allow more complex patterns of awareness and modes of interaction to emerge among the images, facts, and details of a given Cantos sequence.

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.
