NCSA Emerging
Scholars Award
The Nineteenth Century Studies Association (NCSA) is
pleased to announce the 2010 Emerging Scholars Award.
The work of emerging scholars represents the promise and
long-term future of interdisciplinary scholarship in 19th-century studies. In
recognition of the excellent publications of this constituency of emerging
scholars, this award recognizes an outstanding article or essay published
within five years of the author's doctorate. Entries can be from any discipline
focusing on any aspect of the long 19th century (French Revolution to World War
I), must be published in English or be accompanied by an English translation,
and must be by a single author. Submission of essays that are interdisciplinary
is especially encouraged.
Entrants must be within five years of having received a
doctorate or other terminal professional degree, and must have less than seven
years of experience either in an academic career, or as a post-terminal-degree
independent scholar or practicing professional.
Only articles physically published between September 1,
2008 and August 31, 2009 (even if the citation date of the journal is
different) are eligible for the 2010 Emerging Scholar Award. Articles published
in any scholarly journal, including on-line journals, or in edited volumes of
essays are eligible and may be submitted either by the author or the publisher
of a journal, anthology, or volume containing independent essays. In any given
year, an applicant may submit more than one article for this award.
The winning article will be selected by a committee of
nineteenth-century scholars representing diverse disciplines. Articles
submitted to the NCSA Article Prize competition are ineligible for the Emerging
Scholars Award.
The winner will receive $500 to be presented at the 31st
Annual NCSA Conference, “Theatricality and the Performative in the Long
Nineteenth Century,” in Tampa, Florida, March 11-13, 2010. Prize recipients
need not be members of the NCSA, but are encouraged to attend the conference to
receive the award.
Deadline for
submission is November 16, 2009.
