Call for Submission: Journal of Women’s History Graduate Student Article Prize

June 2, 2016

journal_of_womens_historyThe Editorial Board of the Journal of Women’s History is proud to announce the third biennial prize for the best article manuscript in the field of women’s history authored by a graduate student. Article manuscripts in any chronological and geographical area are welcome. Manuscripts should not exceed 10,000 words, including endnotes, and should follow the University of Chicago Manual of Style. Please also submit an abstract of no more than 150 words that summarizes the argument and significance of the work. We seek work that has broad significance for the field of women’s history in general, addresses issues that transcend the particulars of the case, and breaks new ground conceptually or methodologically.

Manuscripts should be submitted electronically, along with a cover letter specifying the author’s graduate advisor, program, and status (i.e., year in program, ABD, etc.), by February 1, 2017 to each member of the committee: Lessie Jo Frazier, chair, frazierl@indiana.edu, Katherine Pence, Katherine.pence@baruch.cuny.edu, and Kimberly Hamlin, hamlinka@miamioh.edu.

The winning author will receive $500.00 and the article, after a further process of review and revision, will be published in the Journal of Women’s History.  The prize will be awarded at the Berkshire Conference of Women’s History, June 1-4, 2017, Hofstra University, Hempstead, NY.
