Abstract
The life and thought of Martin Delany are objects of recent scholarship because of his frequent identification as the Ameri-can black community’s first black nationalist. ’ One marvels to learn that the life of an American black man in the nineteenth century could encompass the adventures, accomplishments, and versatility of both a picaresque hero and a Renaissance man. Yet, Martin Delany lived such a life.2 It is a life that is only summarized with great difficulty since Delany could lay claim to so many different careers and accomplishments: phy-sician, newspaper writer and editor, abolitionist lecturer, inventor, novelist, African explorer, army recruiter, infantry major, administrator for the Freedmen’s Bureau, real estate agent, candidate for Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina, trial judge, and finance chairman for a black steamship com-pany.

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.
