The International Susan Glaspell Society offers two biannual awards to celebrate outstanding new contributions to Susan Glaspell scholarship. Fifty dollars will be awarded for the best conference paper presented at any ISGS-sponsored panel and $100.00 will be awarded for the best published article (book chapter or journal) during the two-year period under review. The winners of these awards will be selected by the ISGS Executive Council and announced at the biannual ISGS business meeting.<\/p>\n
The Society also offers a translation prize of $100.00 every six years. This award is meant to promote translations of Glaspell\u2019s works (drama and fiction) into any language. It is open to non-members as well as ISGS members. The awarding of prize monies is to be judged and determined by the Executive Council and will be announced at the biannual ISGS Business Meeting. Translated works must be submitted to the President, who will forward to the Executive Council at least four months prior to the Business Meeting. All accompanying material must be submitted in English and submissions should meet the following criteria:<\/p>\n
In order to be eligible for the award, the submitted work must be a full, unabridged translation of the original work; partial translations shall not be considered.<\/p>\n
The submitted translation must demonstrate faithfulness to the original: linguistically, structurally\/stylistically, and tonally.<\/p>\n
Translations must be \u201creadable\u201d and \u201cteachable\u201d; and in case of play translations, they have to be \u201cplayable\u201d by actors (thus, \u201cstage worthy\u201d).<\/p>\n
Authors should provide information about the critical impact of the translation. In the case of translations to be staged, authors should include excerpts from reviews of the production. In the case of translations to be published, authors should include excerpts from readers\u2019 reports or critical receptions of the translation. These must be translated into English.<\/p>\n
The ISGS Executive Council may request an external reader who is fluent in both English and the target language of the translation to assess the work.<\/p>\n
