Dunlap Memorial Fellowship awarded by the William Morris Society in the United States supports scholarly and creative work about William Morris.\u00a0 The fellowship offers funding up to $1000 for research and other expenses, including travel to conferences and libraries. Projects may deal with any subject\u2014biographical, literary, historical, social, artistic, political, typographical\u2014relating to Morris. The Society also encourages translations of Morris's works and the production of teaching materials (lesson plans and course materials) suitable for use at the elementary, secondary, college or adult-education level. Applications are sought particularly from younger members of the Society and from those at the beginning of their careers. Recipients may be from any country and need not have an academic or institutional appointment, nor must recipients hold the Ph.D.<\/p>\n<p>In some years the Society offers a second, smaller fellowship, the William Morris Society Award (the amount to be determined by the committee of judges).\u00a0 The purpose and aims of this second award are the same as for the Joseph R. Dunlap Fellowship.<\/p>\n<p>Applicants should send a two-page description of their projects, along with a c.v. and at\u00a0least one letter of recommendation. For a translation project, please submit an additional letter from a recognized authority able to certify the applicant's competence in both languages. For teaching materials, we ask also for a cover letter describing the ways in which the materials might be used in learning situations. The Society would be pleased to publish any completed translation or teaching materials on its website, but this is not a requirement.<\/p>\n<p>The deadline for applications is <strong>15 December 2015<\/strong>. Applications are judged by committee, and the decision announced by 15 January 2016. Send applications to:<\/p>\n<p>Linda K.
