Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract This short introduction to my translation (with Gabriela Veronelli and María Constanza Guzmán) of José María Arguedas’s “Entre el kechwa y el castellano, la angustia del mestizo” (1939), here titled “The Anguish of the Mestizo between Quechua and Spanish,” situates Arguedas’s essay within debates on translation, transculturation, and decolonial thought. Arguedas explores the existential and linguistic tensions of living between Quechua and Spanish, viewing translation as a creative and ethical negotiation between worlds. His reflections anticipate current concerns in translation studies — from eco-translation to affect studies and posthumanist approaches — highlighting translation as a site of cultural, epistemic, and ontological encounter.

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.
