The Hodder Fellowship will be given to writers and
non-literary artists of exceptional promise to pursue independent projects at
Princeton University during the 2017-2018 academic year. Potential Hodder
Fellows are writers, composers, choreographers, visual artists, performance
artists, or other kinds of artists or humanists who have “much more than
ordinary intellectual and literary gifts”.
Recipients are selected more “for promise than for
performance.” Given the strength of the applicant pool, most successful Fellows
have published a first book or have similar achievements in their own fields;
the Hodder is designed to provide Fellows with the “studious leisure” to
undertake significant new work.
The Fellowship will take place at Princeton University/Lewis
Center for the Arts, 185 Nassau Street, Princeton, NJ 08542, USA from 2017 to 2018.
The deadline for application is September 19, 2016.
Hodder Fellows spend an academic year at Princeton, but no
formal teaching is involved. An $80,000 stipend is provided for this 10-month
appointment. Fellowships are not intended to fund work leading to an advanced
degree. One need not be a US citizen to apply.
Writers should submit a resume, a 3,000-word writing sample
of recent work, and a project proposal of 500 to 750 words.
Performing Artists, Visual Artists and Composers: Submit a
resume, a project proposal of 500 to 750 words, and examples of ten minutes of
performance through link(s) to sites such as YouTube, Vimeo, Flicker, etc.
Visual artists should provide up to 20 still images saved as a PDF file and
submit as part of their online application or supply a link to a website.
Composers may send 1-2 scores as a PDF file and submit as part of their online
application and/or supply a link to a website.
