Subject: [DHSI] Call for Proposals: 2023 USLDH-Mellon Grants-in-Aid
To: institute@lists.uvic.ca <institute@lists.uvic.ca>Dear colleagues please share and consider applying for the 2023 US Latino
Digital Humanities Center – Mellon Foundation Grants-in-Aid. Proposals are
due Jan. 9, 2023. More info on our webpage at:
https://artepublicopress.com/recovery-program/grantsinaid/* The University of Houston US Latino Digital Humanities (USLDH) program is
a digital scholarship/research undertaking to provide training and research
on US Latino recovered materials. Proposals must draw from recovered
primary and derivative sources produced by Latinas/os in what is now the
United States, dating from the Colonial Period to 1980 (such as Recovering
the US Hispanic Literary Heritage collections, other repositories and/or
the community). The Grants-in-Aid program is designed to provide a
stipend to scholars for research and development of digital scholarship in
the form of a digital publication and/or a digital project. The grant
covers any expense connected with research that will advance a project to
the next stage or to a successful conclusion. Scholars will have the
opportunity to publish their digital scholarship on Arte Público Press’
APPDigital publication platform. See sample digital scholarship/research on
the following sites: Reanimate, CUNY, University of Washington and Temple
University Press. Past USLDH projects are described below. Scholars at
different stages of their careers (academics, librarians, advanced graduate
students, independent scholars, etc.) are encouraged to apply for a stipend
of up to $7,500 for investigative work. Grantees are expected to attend
virtual trainings (dates to be announced). We welcome applications in the
following areas: – Identification, location and recovery of any wide
variety of historical documents and/or literary genres, including
conventional literary prose and poetry, and such forms as letters, diaries,
memoirs, testimonials, periodicals, historical records and written
expressions of oral traditions, folklore and popular culture. Any documents
that could prove relevant to the goals of the program will also be
considered. The emphasis is on works by Mexican/Chicano, Puerto Rican,
Cuban, Spanish, Central and South American and other Latina/o residents of
what has become the United States, from the Colonial period to 1980. –
Bibliographic compilations, indexing projects pertaining to any of the
above. Compilation of reference works, e.g. bibliographic dictionaries,
thematic datasets, linguistic corpus, etc. – Study of recovered primary
source(s) for potential digital publication, including: text analysis,
thematic dataset creation, visualization, metadata creation, etc. – US
Latina voices. – Underrepresented archives, such as Afrolatinidad,
Indigenous, gender, LGBTQI+, etc. To apply, please submit a letter of
interest, project description (2-3 pages), proposed budget and CV as a
single PDF document via email to apprec@central.uh.edu
<apprec@central.uh.edu> by Monday, January 9, 2023. Two letters of
recommendation should be sent directly to apprec@central.uh.edu
<apprec@central.uh.edu> by the recommenders. All documentation (including
letters) are due on January 9, 2023. *Dr. Lorena Gauthereau
