italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Leslie Kan,
in 1992 A.Longo editor, Ravenna , published my book:" Italian
Post-1600 Manuscripts and Family Archives in North American
Libraries" where your Library is mentioned. I researched these
Libraries for about two years, with the help of a private foundation
fellowship. Have you, by any chance, added to the Italian
Collections? A friend has often asked me if I would consider
publishing and up-dated version of this work, but that would involve
too much research, of a kind that I am no longer interested in.
I am teaching manly modern and contemporary authors, narrative and
art. I know my small contribution has been helpful to many scholars.
With kindest regards,
Dr. Maria X. Wells
Adjunct Professor of French and Italian
Consultant for Italian Collections

>Newberry Library Fellowships in the Humanities, 2009-2010
>
>The Newberry Library, an independent research library in Chicago,
>Illinois, invites applications for its 2009-2010 Fellowships in the
>Humanities. Newberry Library fellowships support research in residence
>at the Library, and all proposed research must be appropriate to the
>collections (excluding the Terra Foundation Fellowship and certain
>short-term awards). Our fellowship program rests on the belief that all
>projects funded by the Newberry benefit from engagement both with the
>materials in the Newberry's collections and with the lively community of
>researchers that gathers around those collections. Long-term residential
>fellowships are available for periods of six to eleven months to
>postdoctoral scholars who must hold the Ph.D. at the time of
>application. The stipend for these fellowships ranges from $25,500 to
>$70,000. In 2008-2009 the Library inaugurated a new Terra Foundation for
>American Art Fellowship in Art History carrying an academic-year stipend
>of $70,000 for a full professor (or its equivalent outside the academy)
>and $50,400 for all other awardees. Short-term residential fellowships
>are intended for postdoctoral scholars or Ph.D. candidates from outside
>the Chicago area who have a specific need for Newberry collections. The
>tenure of short-term fellowships varies form one week to two months. The
>amount of the award is generally $1600 per month. Applications for
>long-term fellowships are due January 12, 2009; applications for most
>short-term fellowships are due March 2, 2009. For more information or to
>download application materials, visit our website at:

>If you would like materials sent to you by mail, write to the Committee
>on Awards, 60 West Walton Street, Chicago, IL 60610-3380. If you have
>questions about the fellowships program, contact [log in to unmask]
