Calendar Styles and Church Feasts in Patrick Gordon's “Diary”
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Diary of the Scottish General Patrick Gordon, one of Peter the Great's mentors, written in Old English, is an important source on the history of Russia. and a number of European countries in the second half of the 17th century. In 2000—2018, D. G. Fedosov (1962—2024) published the Old English text of all 6 volumes of the Diary and its translation into Russian. An analysis of the ways of dating events in the Diary (calendar styles used by the author, church feasts mentioned, days of commemoration of Orthodox and Catholic saints) brought new data on the history of the Catholic community of the German Quarter (Sloboda) in the 80s — 90s of the 17th century, and it also allowed us to identify one of the possible sources that Gordon used in his Diary: Ein- und Dreyssig Jährige Calender-Prob ... Vom Jahre 1670 biß ins Jahr 1700 ... von Johann Henrich Voigt ... zu Staden. Hamburg [S.l.]: Rebenlein, [ca. 1674].

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.
