Harriman First Book Subvention Grant

The Harriman Institute established the First Book Subvention Award in 2016 to support the work of its postdoctoral fellows and Ph.D. graduates. Two awards in the amount of $3000 are granted annually to authors who have secured publishing contracts for their first monograph. The fruits of the first two awards were published in February 2018: Bella Grigoryan’s Noble Subjects: The Russian Novel and the Gentry, 1762-1861 (Northern Illinois University Press); and Ani Kokobobo’s Russian Grotesque Realism: The Great Reforms and the Gentry Decline (The Ohio State University Press).
