SUMMARY:Call for Papers: Kathryn T. Preyer Scholars Program\, American Society for Legal History\, April 1\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:From the organizers: \nCriteria: Early-career scholars who wish to present a paper on any topic in legal\, institutional and/or constitutional history\, at the annual ASLH conference. \nAmount: $500 cash + $750 reimbursement \nDeadline: April 1\, 2026 \nNamed after the late Kathryn T. Preyer\, a distinguished historian of the law of early America known for her generosity to early career legal historians\, the program of Kathryn T. Preyer Scholars is designed to help legal historians at the beginning of their careers. At the annual meeting of the Society two early career legal historians designated Kathryn T. Preyer Scholars will present what would normally be their first papers to the Society. The generosity of Professor Preyer’s friends and family has enabled the Society to offer a small honorarium to the Preyer Scholars and to reimburse\, in some measure or entirely\, their costs of attending the meeting. The competition for Preyer Scholars is organized by the Society’s Kathryn T. Preyer Memorial Committee. \nSubmissions are welcome on any topic in legal\, institutional and/or constitutional history. Early career scholars\, including those pursuing graduate or law degrees\, those who have completed their terminal degree within the previous year\, and those independent scholars at a comparable stage\, are eligible to apply. At the annual meeting of the Society two early career legal historians designated Kathryn T. Preyer Scholars will present what would normally be their first papers to the Society. While papers simultaneously submitted to the ASLH Program committee are eligible\, Preyer Award winners must present their paper as part of the Preyer panel and will be removed from any other panel. For the 2026 conference in Banff only\, a Preyer Scholar may give their presentation virtually if they are unable to attend in person due to exceptional circumstances. \nSubmissions should consist of a single MS Word document consisting of a complete curriculum vitae\, contact information\, and a complete draft of the paper to be presented. Papers should not exceed 50 pages (12-point font\, double-spaced). In past competitions\, the Committee has given preference to draft articles and essays\, though the Committee will also consider shorter conference papers\, as one of the criteria for selection will be the suitability of the paper for reduction to a twenty-minute oral presentation. \nThe two Kathryn T. Preyer Scholars will receive a $500 cash award and reimbursement of expenses up to $750 for travel\, hotels\, and meals. Each will present the paper that s/he submitted to the competition at the Society’s annual meeting. The Society’s journal\, Law and History Review\, has published several past winners of the Preyer competition\, though it is under no obligation to do so. \nPlease send submissions by the deadline to preyeraward@aslh.net.
