National Endowment for the Humanities

Description

The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR, the National Research Council) of the Government of Italy are cooperating in the support of scholarly research. NEH invites applications for humanities research focusing on Italy's cultural heritage in relation to that of the United States. Recipients will be awarded fellowships. The CNR will award fellowships to Italian scholars for research on similar topics in the United States. NEH and CNR each anticipate awarding up to three fellowships. Fellowships support individuals pursuing advanced research that is of value to scholars and general audiences in the humanities. Recipients usually produce articles, monographs, books, digital materials, archaeological site reports, translations, editions, and other scholarly tools. Fellowships support continuous full-time work for a period of six to twelve months. Fellowships may not be used for: curricular or pedagogical methods, theories, or surveys; preparation or revision of textbooks; projects that seek to promote a particular political, philosophical, religious, or ideological point of view; projects that advocate a particular program of social action; works in the creative and performing arts, i.e., painting, writing fiction or poetry, dance performance, etc.; or doctoral dissertations or theses.
