“Any Strange Beast There Makes a Man”: Interaction and Self-Reflection in the Arctic (1576-1578)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Avant le voyage de Francis Drake qui l’amène jusqu’en Californie (1579) et la colonie de Roanoke (1584-1587), c’est en Arctique que les explorateurs anglais font pour la première fois l’expérience de la différence et de l’altérité dans le Nouveau Monde. Lors des trois expéditions organisées de 1576 à 1578 pour découvrir le passage du Nord-Ouest, Martin Frobisher et ses hommes rencontrent des Inuit de l’Ile de Baffin qu’ils vont progressivement dépeindre comme des sauvages, voire des cannibales. La zone de contact se révèle être un lieu complexe d’affrontements et de négociations dynamiques. Elle fonctionne comme un miroir, où l’autre permet de définir sa propre humanité. C’est aussi là, en terre de Meta Incognita, que s’élabore par défaut un modèle colonial qui pose les prémices d’une identité nationale, révélant les enjeux identitaires du récit d’exploration.

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.
