CALL FOR APPLICATIONS: Lewis-Reynolds-Smith Founders Fellowship

Each year the Hemingway Society accepts applications for its Lewis-Reynolds-Smith Founders Fellowship grant, and typically makes two awards of $1,000 each to support the development of a Hemingway-related project. Preference is given to enrolled graduate students, independent scholars, or recent recipients of doctorate degrees. Applications are due by Friday, March 1, 2024. Winners will be announced at the end of March.

The award honors the contributions of Robert W. Lewis, Michael Reynolds, and Paul Smith, whose work greatly influenced Hemingway studies. We invite proposals for work about any aspect of Hemingway studies, including literary theory and criticism; aesthetics and craft; modernism and modernity; race and ethnicity; class, labor, and work; gender and sexuality; ecocriticism and animal studies; print culture, textual scholarship and book history; material culture and pop culture; travel, tourism, and leisure; influence and intertextuality; disability studies; biography, memoir, and life writing; digital humanities; and other modes of inquiry that add to our understanding of Hemingway.  We welcome proposals for books, articles, and dissertations, as well as creative, pedagogical, and digital projects.
