neh.gov>ANNOUNCING: National Endowment for the Humanities Applications to Conduct an NEH Seminar or Institute in Summer 2001 Application Deadline: March 1, 2000. Each summer the National Endowment for the Humanities supports faculty development through residential seminars and institutes. These projects are designed to provide teachers from across the nation with intensive study of important texts and topics in the humanities. Seminars and institutes are intended to foster excellent teaching by encouraging collegial discussion of humanities topics within close-knit scholarly communities. They also promote active scholarship in the humanities in ways suited to teachers at all levels from grade school through college. Now is a good time to begin drafting a proposal to direct a seminar or institute, or to contact a colleague whom you think might be interested in developing a project. The NEH is supporting 27 projects for school teachers and 22 for college and university faculty in the summer of 2000. If you or your colleagues would like to apply to offer a seminar or institute in 2001, please be in touch with one of the NEH program staff listed below to discuss your application. Program staff can answer questions, provide samples of successful applications, and comment on an informal draft. Staff can usually help anticipate questions that are likely to arise in the review process. The application guidelines can be found on the NEH Web site at http://www.neh.gov/pdf/guidelines/seminars.pdf.

On PROTOSOCIOLOGY "Protosociology occupies an important position in the European intellectual scene, bridging philosophy, economics, sociology and related disciplines. Its volumes on rationality bring together concerns in all these topics, and present an important challenge to the cognitive sciences." Donald Davidson, Berkeley (USA) "Protosociology publishes original papers of great interest that deal with fundamental issues in the human and social science. No academic library is complete without it." Nicholas Rescher, Pittsburgh (USA) "Protosociology has been remarkably successful in publishing interesting work from different tradition and different disciplines and, as the title signals, in giving that work a new, eye-catching slant." Philipp Pettit, Canberra, Australia "Protosociology is a truly premier interdisciplinary journal that publishes articles and reviews on timely topics written by and for a wide range of international scholars. The recent volumes on rationality are remarkable for their breadth and depth. Protosociology would be a great addition to any library."
