Overview
The purpose of this fellowship is to attract a scholar to the University of Wisconsin–Madison campus to research and write on a subject related to the history of cartography. The fellow chosen for the 2010-2011 academic year will focus on a period relevant to any of the last three volumes (Four through Six) of the History of Cartography series, which cover the modern era from ca. 1650 to 2000; preference will be given to work that compliments one of the three volumes.
The two-month residence, taken at any time between July 2010 and June 2011, will be at the Institute for Research in the Humanities, which will provide office space and will provide other facilities and support given to scholars at the Institute. Participation in the scholarly community of the Institute is strongly encouraged.
Fellowship Value
The stipend is $3,500 per month for two months. The selection of the fellow will be made on the recommendation of the editors of Volumes Four and Six and of the Executive Committee of the Institute for Research in the Humanities.
The Institute for Research in the Humanities, founded in 1959 as the first institute in North America devoted solely to the support and encouragement of humanistic scholarship, is located in the heart of the campus of the University of Wisconsin—Madison. The Institute supports research in the traditional humanistic areas of literature, history, and philosophy; it also promotes interdisciplinary scholarship, while cultivating methodological diversity and breadth.

How to apply
Applicants for the David Woodward Memorial Fellowship, who should hold a Ph.D. or equivalent, should submit an application form and a proposal not exceeding four double spaced pages explaining what they intend to study during the two-month residence and what the end product is likely to be.
