CFP: Journal of Ecclesiastical History: Eusebius Prize

The Journal offers an annual prize of £500 for the best essay submitted on a subject connected with any aspect of early Christian history, broadly understood as including the first seven centuries AD/CE. Scholars in any relevant discipline (theology, classics, late antique studies, Middle Eastern studies, etc ), whether established in their field or graduate students, are encouraged to enter the competition. Essays should not exceed 8,000 words including footnotes, and for 2012 should be submitted by 30 September. A judgement will be made at the end of November of the same year (the editors reserve the right not to award the prize if no essay of significant quality is submitted). The essay of the successful candidate will be published in the Journal, probably in the number appearing in July 2013. Other submissions entered into the competition may also be recommended for publication. All essays should be sent as two hard copies, prepared to journal style, to Mrs Anne Waites, Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Robinson College, Cambridge CB3 9AN.
