Dear colleagues,
An Invitation for Historians from the "Grupo de Investigación HHR"



The ARYS association has established an international award called the  
ARYS “Fernando Gascó” award for research into ancient religions and  
societies.



It is a biennial prize of €1000 for original research works. The work  
awarded the award will be published in the year following the award  
decision in the series of books published by ARYS: Antiquity, Religion  
and Societies, with ISSN 1575-166X.
Authors will not receive royalties for the first 1000 copies but they  
are recognized as owning the copyright of the work. If the work is  
published in subsequent editions, the authors should state that the  
work was the recipient of the ARYS “Fernando Gascó” prize, and cite  
the fact of its publication and its year of publication. Furthermore,  
the ARYS Association reserves the right to offer to publish the works  
of the finalists for the award in the same series.
All authors of any nationality may participate with works written in  
Spanish, English, French, German, Italian or Portuguese.
Original manuscripts should address the essential themes of the  
Association, the religions and societies of the ancient world, must be  
previously unpublished, and not have been awarded any previous prize  
or submitted to any other competition involving a commitment to  
publish the winning work, nor be subject to any other similar  
commitment. The applicant agrees to publish the work in ARYS if it is  
awarded the prize.
Original manuscripts, not to exceed 400 pages excluding images, should  
be typewritten at a space and a half, on DINA-4 or folio, in 12 pt  
Times New Roman or similar normal font, must be legible, and the  
default pre-established margins must be used. Notes should go at the  
foot of the page, in 10 pt.
A printed copy must be presented along with an electronic version (CD,  
DVD or USB). Manuscripts must be presented by 14:00 hours on the 30th  
September 2018 in the “Instituto de Historiografía de la Universidad  
Carlos III de Madrid”, addressed to “Grupo de Investigación  
Historiografía e Historia de las Religiones”, mentioning the award.
Works must be identified with the name of the author, catchphrase or  
pseudonym, which should also figure in the same way on the outside of  
an attached sealed envelope containing the personal and contact  
information of the author, a short biography and a summarized CV.
A reading committee of qualified experts designated by the leadership  
of the ARYS Association will be in charge of determining the three  
original manuscripts to be included in the short list of the award and  
of sending them to the members of the Jury.
The Jury will comprise 3 qualified specialists, as follows:
- One member of the Board of Directors of the ARYS Association, who  
will act as Secretary.
- One member of the Editorial Board or the Scientific Committee of the  
ARYS journal who will be a Member.
- A specialist of recognized prestige from a Spanish or foreign  
University not represented by the other members of the jury, who will  
act as Chair.
The Jury’s decision shall take place before 13th December and it shall  
be made public during the Ordinary General Assembly of the ARYS  
Association in 13th-14th December. After the Prize has been awarded,  
the Secretary of the Jury shall open the sealed envelope corresponding  
to the winner.
The Award can be declared void but cannot be divided up.
Once the prize has been awarded, the other contestants can collect  
their original manuscripts from the same address they were sent to,  
either in person or by means of another duly authorized person, agency  
or representative, within the three months following the awarding of  
the Prize. The ARYS Association will not return manuscripts by post.
Participation in the award competition entails the acceptance of these  
norms. In matters not specified within them the Jury’s criteria shall  
be followed, and their decisions are not open to appeal.
