National Endowment for the Humanities Nominations for Summer Stipends

NEH Summer Stipends are awarded in the amount of $6000 for two consecutive months of full-time research and writing.  The grants provide individuals with an opportunity to pursue research in the humanities that contributes to scholarly knowledge or to the public’s understanding of the humanities.  Projects should be completed during the tenure of an award or represent part of a long-term endeavor.  Recipients might eventually produce scholarly articles, a monograph on a specialized subject, a book on a broad topic, an archeological site report, a translation, an edition, digital materials and publications or other scholarly tools.  For more information please reference the guidelines at https://www.neh.gov/files/grants/summer-stipends-sep-27-2017.pdf
