La recette du bonheur parfait: Les publications culinaires du gouvernement québécois à l’intention des femmes au début du XX<sup>e</sup> siècle
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Résumé En 1901, le gouvernement québécois ouvre la voie à un discours culinaire destiné aux femmes avec la publication de La bonne ménagère. Le ministère de l’Agriculture, soucieux de l’exode rural en cours depuis le milieu du XIXe siècle, tente avec cette publication de retenir les populations à la campagne. Il use à cet effet d’une imagerie élogieuse de la vie rurale perceptible notamment dans les préfaces ou les pièces liminaires des livres de recettes. Les préoccupations gouvernementales sont croissantes et diverses dans les premières décennies du XXe siècle. La surmortalité infantile, le spectre de la perte de la nation canadienne-française, le travail rémunéré des femmes, la crise économique des années 1930 ou encore les conflits mondiaux apportent leur lot d’inquiétudes auprès des élites québécoises. Un discours argumentatif et normatif est alors diffusé afin de réformer des comportements jugés inadéquats ou pour orienter la consommation des ménagères vers certaines denrées alimentaires. Abstract In 1901, the Quebec government launched a culinary initiative aimed at women with the publication of La bonne ménagère. The Ministry of Agriculture, concerned about the rural exodus that had been going on since the middle of the nineteenth century, tried with this publication to keep people in the countryside. To do so, it used laudatory imagery of rural life, particularly visible in the prefaces or introductions of the recipe books. Governmental concerns were growing and various in the early decades of the twentieth century. High infant mortality rates, the spectre of the loss of the French-Canadian nation, women’s paid work, the economic crisis of the 1930s and the world wars were of great concern to Quebec’s elites. An argumentative and normative discourse was disseminated during these years with the aim of reforming behaviours deemed inappropriate as well as encouraging housewives to consume certain food products.

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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
