Up to £2,000 to study Western Medieval Manuscripts

The British Academy has issued a new call for applications for the Neil Ker Memorial Fund Awards. The aims of the Neil Ker Memorial Fund are to promote the study of Western medieval manuscripts, in particular those of British interest. Normally, grants will only be given for monographs, secondary works, editions or studies of documents, texts or illustrations, that include analysis of the distinctive features of original manuscripts. Awards are normally tenable for up to 12 months. In general, awards do not exceed £2,000.

The deadline for applications is 15 March 2009 for awards to be taken up on or after 1 July 2009. Awards will be announced at the end of June 2009.

Details and application forms are available from: http://www.britac.ac.uk/funding/guide/nkmf.cfm

If you are considering applying for this funding, please contact Arts-REST. It will need to go through the normal RED form approval process.
