Penser des empathies de la forme avec le cycle Soifs de Marie-Claire Blais
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Soifs cycle by Marie-Claire Blais (published between 1995 and 2022) depicts life on an American island and its diverse population of artists, writers, activists and refugees. A distinguishing feature of this major literary work is its form, often described as a long sentence with elaborate punctuation that unfolds like a single breath over the course of each volume. The narrative shifts from one voice to the other, seemingly disappearing behind the multiplicity of voices that make it up, produces a particularly immersive reading experience. Although the text thematizes empathy, we look more specifically at how its form succeeds in creating an empathetic response in the reader. Following in the footsteps of reception theories (Iser, Ingarden), this contribution proposes to consider the textual means that a literary work can use to place empathy at the heart of the reading experience – and above all, the ethical issues that accompany such proximity of the reader to the narrative.

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.
