Subject: NEH Archival Research Opportunity

Special Opportunity for Archival Research

The National Endowment for the Humanities has undertaken
an initiative to commemorate the 2500th anniversary of the
birth of democracy and to celebrate the spread of democratic
institutions in our own time. In pursuit of this
initiative, the Endowment now announces a special
opportunity for scholars seeking support for individual or
collaborative research to be undertaken in archives abroad.

The Endowment is especially interested in projects
reflecting emerging opportunities for research in recently
opened archives in newly-democratized countries, such as the
former Warsaw Pact countries of Eastern Europe or the
republics of the former Soviet Union. Projects may address
topics in any field of the humanities. Applications will be
reviewed on the basis of the significance of the project for
the humanities and the importance of the proposed archival
research to the completion of that project. Grants will
provide limited support for travel (to a maximum of $2,800),
living expenses (not to exceed $1,250 per month), and
research expenses (including duplication of materials). The
proposed grant period must be three or more weeks in
duration, and the total request cannot exceed a maximum of
$20,000.

This special opportunity is offered under the current
guidelines for the Division of Research programs, and
applications will be evaluated according to the "Evaluation
Criteria" published in the Guide to the Division of Research
Programs (1992): p. 24. Applicants for this special
opportunity should submit a narrative description of the
project (not to exceed 5 single-spaced pages) outlining the
methodology and workplan of the proposed archival project,
explaining the importance of the archival collection(s) to
be visited and the research materials to be consulted, and
demonstrating the impact and significance of the project for
the humanities in general. Applicants should also indicate
how access to the research collection(s) will be secured.

A completed application for this special opportunity will
consist of the project narrative, a copy of the applicant's
resume (together with resumes of collaborators, if
applicable), and a one-page itemized budget, providing an
estimate of the total costs of the proposed research (not to
exceed $20,000).

Applicants should submit seven (7) copies of the completed
application. Applications may not be submitted to NEH by
means of a FAX machine or via electronic mail. The complete
application package should be addresed to Special
Opportunity for Archival Research and mailed to:

Interpretive Research Program
Division of Research Programs, Room 318
National Endowment for the Humanities
1100 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20506
telephone 202-606-8210.

Inquiries about the program may be directed through e-mail
to NEHRES@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (INTERNET) or NEHRES@GWUVM (BITNET).
E-mail messages should list "Archival Research Opportunity"
in the subject line.

The first deadline for receipt of applications is January
11, 1993; thereafter proposals will be reviewed on a bi-
monthly basis, subject to availability of funds.
