Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The resident poets attached to court of the Tudor kings Henry VII (r. 1485–1509) and his son Henry VIII (r. 1509–44)—predominantly trained in Italy, with the exception of the English Laureate John Skelton (ca. 1460–1529)—manifest a considerable attachment to the Silvae of P. Papinius Statius (d. ca. 96), as evidenced by their quotations, reworkings, and imitations of matter from the corpus of Statius’ ex tempore verse. The same early Tudor poets similarly used an array of paracorporal Roman elegy—the Panegyricus Messallae and other items of the Corpus Tibullianum; the Consolatio ad Liviam and related Elegiae in Maecenatem—inaccessible before print, but brought to their attention by the same set of interrelated Italian incunabular editions from which they had acquired familiarity with Statius’ newly recovered Silvae.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
