“It Was Like a Dream”: War Pilgrimages in the Canadian War Museum’s Collections
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article uses material culture and oral histories held by the Canadian War Museum to explore war-related pilgrimages undertaken by veterans and their loved ones. The artwork, scrapbooks, mementos and recorded interviews reveal how meaningful pilgrimages can be for their participants. These are emotional or spiritual journeys as much as they are temporal ones. A pilgrim travels to a liminal space where the past appears closer and the dead are not beyond the reach of the living, and is transformed by it. Cet article utilise la matérielle ethnographique et les histoires orales détenues par le Musée canadien de la guerre pour explorer les pèlerinages liés à la guerre entrepris par les anciens combattants et leurs proches. Les oeuvres d’art, les albums de coupures, les souvenirs et les entretiens enregistrés révèlent à quel point les pèlerinages peuvent être significatifs pour leurs participants. Ils s’agissent de voyages émotionnels ou spirituels autant que temporels. Un pèlerin voyage vers un espace liminal où le passé semble plus proche et où les morts ne sont pas hors de portée des vivants et est transformés par eux.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
