================= HES POSTING ======================= The Journal of the History of Ideas awards each year the Morris D. Forkosch Prize for a book in intellectual history, the stipend now being raised to $2000. Submissions are limited to the first book published by any author and to books published in English (no translations or collections) pertaining to one or more of the major disciplines associated with "intellectual history" broadly conceived, viz., history (including the history of various arts and sciences), philosophy (including the philosophy of science, aesthetics, and other fields), political thought (including economics, social science, and anthropology), and literature (including literary criticism and theory). The judges will favor publications displaying sound scholarship, original conceptualization, and significant chronological and interdisciplinary scope. The four-person committee must select from a vast range of publications; and it will be necessary to narrow the choice by maintaining the highest scholarly standards as well as depending in part on recommendations of publishers, who are requested to supply four copies of the book to members of the committee. We ask publishers to assist us in this process by limiting their nominations to a maximum of two books published in 1998. Nominations must arrive at the addresses of the committee members by 31 December 1998. The winner will be announced in May 1999. For further information, contact: Professor Donald R.
