Every summer, the Humanities Institute funds several $4,000 competitive Summer Writing Grants for universitytrachtenberg faculty working in the humanities to complete or make significant progress on a manuscript for a monograph that is either under contract or in which a publisher has indicated written interest. Applications are open to all full-time faculty.

One of the grant’s requirements for faculty recipients is to give a public presentation on their writing projects during the academic year following the summer they received the grant. Due to COVID 19 restrictions, these presentations will now be given on Zoom.

On Monday, March 1, 2021, Barry Trachtenberg (History) discussed his work on his book project, The Nazi Holocaust & the Exile of Yiddish.
