Hans Rosenberg Book and Article Prizes


Hans Rosenberg Book Prize

The Conference Group for Central European History currently solicits nominations for the Hans Rosenberg Book Prize.  This prize annually honors the best book in central European history published in English by permanent residents of North America. This year’s award considers books with an imprint of 2009. 

Central European history is understood to include all German-speaking countries as well as areas previously included within the Habsburg monarchy. The Conference Group discourages submissions of reprints, second editions, multi-authored anthologies, and document publications.  The award will be announced in Boston, January 2011, at the annual meeting of the American Historical Association.

The nominated book should be mailed by June 30th to each of the following persons:
