Margaret Randall and Transnational Domestic Space
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article undertakes a reading of archival correspondence between Canadian poet George Bowering and the editors of the bilingual poetry journal El corno Emplumado / The Plumed Horn (1962-1969), Margaret Randall and Sergio Mondragón, as they collaborated on a special issue that would become Bowering’s third book of poetry, The Man in Yellow Boots / El hombre de las botas amarillas (1965). This correspondence demonstrates the innovative ways in which Randall, Mondragón, and Bowering understand the home not as a non-political sphere closed off from the power structures of international politics and literary institutions, but rather as the necessary grounds for a transnational literary community that grew more politically engaged as the sixties unfolded. Randall, Mondragón, and Bowering’s approach to mid-century domestic space offers distinctly different possibilities, even as this work unfolded within and against the patriarchal structures that defined life in both normative and countercultural contexts.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
