American Antiquarian Society (AAS) offers several short-term (one
to three months) and long-term (four to twelve months) visiting research
fellowships in all aspects of American history and culture. In recent
years, two separate short-term fellowships have become available to
support the study of American prints and visual culture. One, funded
by the American Historical Print Collectors’ Society, is dedicated
to supporting a scholar studying American prints. The “Drawn
to Art” Fellowship supports research on American art, visual
culture, or other projects that will make substantial use of graphic
materials as primary sources. The Society’s collections are
rich in graphic arts materials, including engravings, lithographs,
photographs, book illustrations, and printed ephemera, plus major
contextual collections of American printed and manuscript material.
Short-term fellowships are available for scholars holding the Ph.D.
and for doctoral candidates engaged in dissertation research. AAS-National
Endowment for the Humanities and Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow-ships
are long-term awards intended for scholars beyond the doctorate, for
which senior and mid-career scholars are encouraged to apply. International
scholars may apply for short-term and Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowships.
The application deadline is January 15 for fellowships for the year
beginning June 1. The Society also offers a Mellon Post-Dissertation
Fellowship for a scholar who has received the Ph.D. within the preceding
three years. The application deadline for that fellowship is October
15 for an award for the following academic year. |
