Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this paper, we will examine the connection between the Second World War and Italian-Canadian literature. Many early works from this literature had their roots in the devastation of war in Italy and the resulting mass migration of thousands of Italians to Canada in the 1950s and 1960s. After writing about the initial immigrant experience, most Italian-Canadian authors moved on to other topics and themes. Some wanted to become more Canadian and less Italian in orientation. In later years, some of these authors returned to the topic of the war and its long-term effects on their lives. We will begin our examination by looking at some examples of how war is treated in early works and then we will consider the phenomenon of how the war is revisited in later works.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
