Description

Every other year, the Institute for Humanities Research (IHR) Book Award honors a book of academic nonfiction by an Arizona State University humanities faculty member on any campus. To be eligible, books must be written in English, published in 2019 or 2020, and written or co-written by a tenured or tenure-track, full-time ASU faculty member whose work reflects the finest contemporary humanities-based scholarship on any topic.

The IHR welcomes submissions that are original and innovative contributions to a traditional humanities discipline as well as those that, while grounded in the humanities, employ interdisciplinary and/or transdisciplinary methods to advance knowledge in the author’s field. The IHR also welcomes books that are accessible to readers who are not specialists in the author’s field, and whose work has the potential to engage a diverse public.
