The deadline for all three grants is Monday, March 3rd.

Lost & Found: The CUNY Poetics Document Initiative publishes original research, based on primary sources and related to figures central to or associated with the New American Poetry. Lost & Found also initiates research, works with living writers and their heirs, and organizes seminars and events that promote new, cooperative models of textual scholarship and publication. Utilizing personal and institutional archives located throughout the country, Lost & Found scholars seek to broaden the vision of our literary, cultural, and political history.

This year there are three funding opportunities centered on student archival research in 20th century cultural materials.
