NOMINATIONS ARE CLOSED

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

• Best Group Blog
• Best Individual Blog
• Best Newcomer
• Best Post
• Best Series of Posts
• Best Writing

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 History Blogging panel at the American Historical Association Annual Meeting in early January 2006; winners will be listed on HNN and earn the right to display the Cliopatria Awards Logo on their blog.

Ignore the time stamp: By Hawai'i time, there's an hour of November left.

Eric, My understanding is that 1 December 2004 is the earliest date for nomination that would need to have a time limit, i.e., best new blog, best post, best series of posts.

Eric Muller - 11/6/2005

Just to be clear, I'm not trying to nominate my blog. I'm just asking about the rules.

Eric Muller - 11/6/2005

Jonathan, are these awards confined to posts that were published in calendar year 2005?
