The European History Section of the Southern Historical Association is pleased to
announce the biennial competition for the Parker-Schmitt Dissertation Award. Named
for Harold Parker, long-time professor of French history at Duke University, and Hans
Schmitt, who taught German history at several institutions before completing his
career at the University of Virginia, the Award is given in even–numbered years to the
best Ph.D. dissertation in European history nominated by a faculty member at a
Southern university (the term “Southern” should be broadly construed) or by a
member of the European History Section.
The award of $250 will be presented at the EHS luncheon at the SHA meeting in
Baltimore, Maryland, this November. Eligible dissertations must have been defended
between 1 August 2020 and 31 July 2022. Criteria for selection include quality and
originality of research, new and stimulating interpretations and insights, and literary
quality.
Recommendations of eligible theses should be sent to the chair of the
committee by 1 August 2022. Recommenders are also responsible for ensuring
that each committee member receives the dissertation itself via email by that date.
