Abstract
This volume gathers together the proceedings of "Verba Domini: The Church and Vernacular Italian before the Council of Trent," an international workshop held in Toronto on 23-25 March 2011.Although some of the contributions have been revised for publication, and others expressly solicited for this volume, the final results are entirely faithful to the goal that animated the original workshop: to promote dialogue between the most recognized specialists of the discipline and young researchers.In 1983, just over thirty years ago, two studies of the relationship between language and religion appeared: Francesco Bruni, "Appunti sui movimenti religiosi e il volgare italiano nel Quattro-Cinquecento", Studi linguistici italiani 9 (1983): 3-30, and Vittorio Coletti, Parole dal pulpito.Chiesa e movimenti religiosi tra latino e volgare nell'Italia del Medioevo e del Rinascimento (Casale Monferrato: Marietti, 1983).The following year, Rita Librandi published her edition of Alfonso de' Liguori's Brevi avvertimenti di grammatica e aritmetica, another important contribution to the field.In 1994, Librandi published yet another decisive work, "L'italiano nella comunicazione della Chiesa e nella diffusione della cultura religiosa", a chapter in Einaudi's Storia della lingua italiana, and in 1998, Nicoletta Maraschio (in collaboration with Tina Matarrese) produced the first proper anthology of religious texts with a linguistic focus for use in the university classroom.These and other scholars came to Toronto in March 2011 to discuss new aspects of the relationship between religion and the Italian language.They met with and listened to graduate students who were at the end of the second semester of their studies -a term during which they had participated in a course I taught entitled "History of Religious Language in Italy".I am proud to offer in this volume the results of this academic event.

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.
