Abstract
Sloan Mahone, “Casting out Anger: Stress, Possession, and the Everyday in Taita, Kenya”: This chapter considers Taita, in Kenya’s Coast Province (now Taita-Taveta county), as a case study, presenting a unique snapshot of a more complicated colonial encounter. For a brief period in the 1950s, the isolated Taita Hills attracted the interests of the colonial government, two anthropologists from Cambridge, and a Canadian psychiatrist and amateur photographer. The cross-section of competing claims about Taita “stress” gives us an opportunity to read into everyday Taita life amid a surge of new economic and political pressures, external interference, and strategies of coping and self-reliance. Government observations that cases of insanity and related outbursts of violence were growing out of control prompted a call to experts and an analytical turn toward local and colonial articulations of the pressures of modern life.

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.
