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.
