*Apply for an NEH Public Scholars Grant (November 30, 2022 Deadline)*

The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) is accepting applications
for the Public Scholars program. The program offers grants to individual
authors for research, writing, travel, and other activities leading to the
creation and publication of well researched nonfiction books in the
humanities written for the broad public.

 The program welcomes projects in all areas of the humanities, regardless
of geographic or chronological focus. The resulting books might present a
narrative history, tell the stories of important individuals, analyze
significant texts, provide a synthesis of ideas, revive interest in a
neglected subject, or examine the latest thinking on a topic. Books
supported by this program must be written in a readily accessible style,
must clearly explain specialized terms and concepts, and must frame their
topics to have wide appeal.

 The Public Scholars program is open to independent writers as well as
applicants with an institutional affiliation. It offers a stipend of $5,000
per month for a period of six to twelve months. The maximum stipend is
$60,000 for a twelve-month period. Applicants must have U.S. citizenship or
residency in the U.S. for the three years preceding the application
deadline. In addition, they must have previously published a book with a
university or trade press or at least three articles or essays in
general-interest publications reaching a large audience.

 More information (including a full statement of the eligibility
requirements) is available on the NEH’s website at
http://www.neh.gov/grants/research/public-scholar-program.  The application
deadline for this cycle is November 30, 2022. Recipients may begin the term
of the grant as early as September 1, 2023 or as late as September 1, 2024.

 An informational video, a list of previously funded projects, and nine
examples of successful applications are also available on the webpage
linked above. Questions may be directed to publicscholars at neh.gov.
