87 chunks, 18 works, Hercules Oetaeus 39 %, top three 75 %. One legend — Hercules' labours, madness and death — in the Seneca translations and Heywood's Brazen Age, with Hercules allusions elsewhere (Lingua). Group decision (single-story clusters T7, T20, T34, T54, T55, T59): decide once whether a shared story counts as a subject for genre comparison, as subject areas already do (T2 Rome, T10/T18 English chronicle matter, T12 the gods); if yes → candidate with the concentration noted, if no → contextual_only.
