The Katharine F. Pantzer Junior Fellowship in the British Book Trades supports research by a senior scholar engaged in bibliographical inquiry into the history of the book trades and publishing history in Britain during the hand-press period. Eligibility is limited to active BSA members; US citizens and residents; and citizens of other nations without US residency who wish to conduct research outside of the United States only. Applicants must submit the project title, their curriculum vitae; the project proposal; the project budget, the project timeline, including a list of materials to be consulted, and two letters of recommendation. Fellowships support bibliographical projects that may range chronologically from the study of clay tablets and papyrus rolls to contemporary print, manuscript, and born-digital materials. Topics relating to texts in any field and of any period are eligible for consideration as long as they include analysis of the physical object as historical evidence. Projects may include establishing a text or studying the history of book or manuscript production, publication, distribution, collecting, or reading, and the history of bibliographical study itself. Fellowship awards may be used to fund travel to collections and other expenses associated with research, publication, or other scholarly outcomes related to the topic for which the award was made. Projects that are primarily enumerative (lists) will be considered for funding provided the proposal states a clear objective, describes the need for such work within its field, and specifies the extent to which textual objects will be described. Sample entries for project results are also welcome, if applicable. For projects that involve significant computer applications or use of digital surrogates, the proposal must explain how the digital analysis relates to the researcher's examination and study of original artifacts. Projects that rely wholly on digital surrogates without prior analysis of original materials will not be funded. Applicants who have not received BSA fellowships in the previous five years will be given preference.
