Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Feng Li’s academic interview with Kathy Kacer, a renowned Canadian author of Holocaust literature for young readers, addresses issues such as cross-generation memories and representations of the Holocaust, the psychological endurance of children and young adults in reading Holocaust scenarios and innovation in narrative techniques when writing Holocaust literature for young readers. Kacer argues that she is treading a careful line of being true to Holocaust history but also ensuring that her young readers will not be traumatized. She also emphasizes that stories are the world’s memories and that we should capture as many voices as we can while survivors are still there, to share their stories and, even when they are gone, continue writing stories that inform history with accuracy and sensitivity, because without historical stories, we will lose even more of our humanity.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
