Barbara Penny Kanner Prize

The Western Association of Women Historians will award $500 to honor
distinguished achievement of the best annotation or critical edition of
autobiography(ies) of women. This year's winning entry should reflect the
craft of history as developed and interpreted in individual lives.

The Kanner Award is intended to promote the scholarly practice of
bibliomethodology or critical editions of autobiographical work.

The bibliomethodology award should
reflect the critical tools of the historian's craft as they have been
developed to provide research guides rather than library catalogues.

Book-length submissions are preferred but substantial guides in other forms
(articles or book chapters) may also be considered. The bibliographical and
the autobiography awards will be given in alternate
years, with submissions for each award considered for two-year intervals
from the date of publication.

This year's award will be for autobiographical work in historical context
published in 2002 or 2003.

ENTRY DEADLINE IS JANUARY 15, 2004.

Send THREE copies of your submission as well as the entry application (found
on our website: www.wawh.org) to the Kanner Prize Chair:
