Du corps à la société. Représentations de la souffrance dans Soifs de Marie-Claire Blais
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This thesis explores the question of suffering in Marie-Claire Blais' novel Soifs, a suffering that is in constant tension between its specific and general representations. The thirst experienced by several characters reveals the link between their physical and individual deficiency and the social injustice they face. A critical stance towards the female condition, the marginalization of homosexuals and racism can be read, directly and indirectly, in the thoughts and words of the characters. A feminist analysis and a gender critical approach underscore the importance given to the body in the novel, whether it be the bodies of women, or of ill or exiled individuals. These embody the character's thirst for justice; they feel, in themselves, the misery of a world which they fear may be approaching its apocalypse.

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.
