Overview
The Etienne Baluze Prize for European local history rewards a PhD thesis in history that contributes to the knowledge and understanding of the constitution of the European space from a localized perspective.
The Etienne Baluze Prize is open to individuals working in any historiographical tradition. It will be awarded for work which makes an important contribution to our knowledge and understanding of the processes leading to the constitution of European space, including its most recent configurations.
Unpublished doctoral theses dealing with the European space between the 14th and the 21st centuries will qualify for consideration. Only theses examined since 2008 are eligible. Languages accepted are English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. Applicants must submit an abstract of their work, on paper and electronically, (3-5 pages together with a table of contents), no later than 10 April 2010 to the following address: (Prize Executive :Jean Boutier,Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, Centre de la Charité,

tél. : 00/33/ (0)4 91 14 07 83 (0)4 91 14 07 83)
Short-listed candidates will be required to submit a complete copy of their work.
The prize winner will receive the sum of 1500 euro and a bust of Etienne Baluze, sculpted by the contemporary artist Nacera Kainou. The jury will be presided by Daniel Roche, Professor, Collège de France, Paris.
Founded in 2007 by the Association des Amis du Musée du Cloître André Mazeyrie of Tulle, the prize is dedicated to the memory of Etienne Baluze (1630-1718). Professor of Canon Law at the Collège de France and historian renowned for his works on ecclesiastical and political institutions in the Middle Ages and the early-modern period, Baluze focused on the Roman Catholic Church and the states of Europe both from a national and a local perspective. Tulle, his native town, served as a research field to grasp the major transformations in medieval and modern Europe. His Histoire de Tulle, published in Latin in 1717, remains to this day a model of meticulous investigation into the local production of European political and juridical realities.
The Etienne Baluze Prize reflects this methodological approach with its emphasis on broad themes and open-ended problematics. The local scale here is considered to be one of the essential paths for an understanding of the historical processes which issued in the construction of the European space. It enriches our understanding of this construction by revealing both deep affinities and fundamental diversities rooted in specific contexts
