Abstract
THE QUEBEC NOVEL of the last decade in many ways radically different from those of present -classic texts of the 1960s that first attracted the attention of American critics. Those novels seemed borne on the wave of a new sense of national identity associated with Quebec’s Quiet Revolution. A bursting of the forth creative activity made names like Marie-Claire Blais, Hu-bert Aquin, Michel Tremblay, Jacques Godbout, Anne Hébert, and Réjean Ducharme familiar even to an American public. Together, these writers produced a sense of a lively new Quebec, satirizing the complacent of old ways and looking toward new, even revolutionary forms of political and artistic expression. Following closely on their heels, a generation of feminists translated this sense of newly-emerging identity from nationalism to gender, and writers like Nicole Brossard, France Theoret, Madeleine Gag- non, and Louky Bersianik became the spokespersons for an active feminist movement that broke with traditional generic models and experimented with language as a means of representing difference. Emerging from a remarkably close-knit intellectual community located primarily in Montreal, the major Quebec novelists of the 1960s and 1970s seemed to share similar concerns, often ideological as well as artistic, and to participate in a homogeneous society, whereas one undergoing rapid change.

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.
