Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study addresses the issues of the reliability of sources on Archaic Greek tyranny and of the synchronising tendency in structuralist analyses of Greek tyrant-myths by focusing on the contemporary discourse on early Greek tyrants. Section 1 re-examines the earliest attestations of the τυρανν- root to determine the associations of the tyrant in contemporary discourse; contrary to consensus, these appear to be overwhelmingly negative in the surviving fragments of early Greek lyric, though positive discourse about specific tyrants is preserved in later narratives. Section 2 studies the contemporary narrative of a specific named person called τύραννοϲ (Alcaeus’ depiction of Pittacus) to investigate how contemporary tyrannic discourse could develop into tyrant-myths.

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. 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.
