The American Antiquarian Society seeks renewed funding for the term 1/1/2022 through 6/30/2025 in the amount of $399,000 to support long-term fellowships for a total of 26 fellowship months per year at the stipend level of $5000/month. Founded in 1812, the AAS is a learned society centered on an independent research library of pre-20th century American history and culture. The Society offered its first National Endowment for the Humanities funded fellowships in 1976-77. The proposed renewal of NEH-supported fellowships will enable scholars from around the country, from diverse backgrounds, and at varied career stages, to conduct research at AAS for periods of 4 to 12 months. The Society asks that NEH provide it with the means to maintain the long-term fellowship program and thus to continue to serve the cause of humanistic scholarship in the United States. |
