Abstract
Abstract The Investiture Controversy (also known as “Investiture Contest”) was a 75‐year struggle that took place in Europe, largely within Germany, France, and northern Italy, in the Middle Ages (from the second half of the eleventh century into the beginning quarter of the twelfth). In its narrowest aspect, the controversy centered on an established practice whereby lay princes effectively chose clergy (including bishops) to minister in their domains, but the struggle focused in particular on the appropriateness of the ceremony by which the prince established these clergy in their ecclesiastical offices. Typically, the monarch handed over to the new bishop a ring and crozier, visible signs of episcopal authority, and in return received an act of homage (usually the swearing of an oath). Episcopal consecration by the diocesan bishop ordinarily followed investiture by the monarch. The driving question of the Investiture Controversy was whether this longstanding practice was consistent with the central tenets of Catholic Christianity. In the course of the controversy the practice was recast as a species of simony.

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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
