The Women’s Caucus Intersectional Prize is an annual award of $500 made by the ASECS Women’s Caucus to encourage and recognize excellent intersectional scholarship on gender, race, and any additional intersectional dimensions with a focus on women in the eighteenth-century.
The award is open to all members of ASECS for projects-in-progress. Winning projects must advance an intersectional analysis of gender and race in the eighteenth century. A required element of this intersectional approach includes a focus on women, gender fluid and/or non-binary persons. Additional intersectional lenses such as indigeneity, empire, sexuality, or class are encouraged and welcomed. Projects typically fall within the period of 1660-1820, though projects spanning a longer time period will also be considered.
The award winner will be notified soon after the committee has made its decision and will be announced at the ASECS annual meeting and the Women’s Caucus luncheon.
