2011 Clios Nominations: Alternate Site

2011-11-02T20:19:00.000-07:00

Due to technical difficulties at HNN affecting Cliopatria and the award nomination posts, we have established these 'satellite pages.' If you have already made a nomination at HNN, you do not have to duplicate it here; if HNN's technical difficulties are solved, you do not have to renominate items from here over there. Both sites' nominations will be accounted for in the judging.

The Cliopatria Awards recognize the best history writing in the blogosphere. There will be awards in eight categories:

Cliopatria, as host of the awards, is ineligible for the"Best Group Blog" category. Individual judges are ineligible for nomination in their respective categories, but may be nominated for other awards. Judges may also make nominations in other categories.

Bloggers, blogs and posts may be nominated in multiple categories. Individuals may nominate any number of specific blogs, bloggers or posts, even in a single category, as long as the nominations include all the necessary information (names, titles, URLs, etc).

Nominations will be open through November; judges will make the final determinations in December. The winners will be announced at the American Historical Association Annual Meeting in early January 2011; winners will be listed on HNN and earn the right to display the appropriate Cliopatria Award Logo on their blog.

Judges for 2011 are: Manan Ahmed, Kelly Baker, Jonathan Dresner, Mary Dudziak, Katrina Gulliver, Andrew Hartman, Brett Holman, Sharon Howard, Shane Landrum, Randall Stephens, Karen Tani, David Weinfeld.

Previous winners can be seen here.

Women's History Carnival

2011-02-27T02:40:00.000-08:00

To mark International Women's Day and Women's History Month the History Carnival is inaugurating a special Women's History Carnival for March 2011, for all blogs and blogging about the history of women, gender and feminism. We don't know exactly what's going to happen yet, but hopefully it'll be a bit different from the usual History Carnivals.

There'll be at least one Carnival post, but we'd like to do much more than that! We'll publicise any great blogging or themed events we come across (or you tell us about) and generally do our best to encourage discussion and bang the drum for women's history.

If you'd like to get involved, or if you're blogging something for Women's History Month that you'd like us to publicise, leave a comment here, use the contact form, or just send a tweet @historycarnival.

The Carnival:
Depending on nominations, it's likely that there will be a Carnival posting (venue tbc) shortly after International Women's Day, with a follow-up towards the end of March to round up the month's activities. You can nominate blog posts for the Carnival using this special nominations form. (Don't use the normal HC nomination form.) Although recent material may be given priority, anything written since March 2010 will be considered!

The Broadside from the History Carnival

2010-08-27T23:51:00.000-07:00

The Broadside is a regularly updated collection of history bloggging (and some other online history news) that has been popular among the historians who are followed by @historycarnival on Twitter.

It's intended as a supplement to the monthly Carnivals - the content is largely automated and will be much less selective and individual. (For more information, read here.)

Hosts Needed: History Carnival and Carnivalesque

2010-08-22T04:24:00.000-07:00

History Carnival is looking for hosts from November onwards.

Carnivalesque is looking for hosts for both early modern (from September) and ancient/medieval editions (from October).

Please take a look at the carnivals' websites (links in sidebar) and past editions to get a feel of what they're all about, and if you'd be interested in helping us out, get in touch with sharon@earlymodernweb.org.uk.
