LCC PAUL REHAK AWARD

Nominations are now being received for the Lambda Classical Caucus's  
annual prize, named in memory of Paul Rehak, Classics professor and  
former LCC co-chair. The Rehak award honors the excellence of a  
publication relating to the LCC's mission, including, but not limited  
to, homosocial and homoerotic relationships and environments, ancient  
sexuality and gender roles, and representation of the gendered body.  
The range of eligible work covers the breadth of ancient Mediterranean  
society, from prehistory to late antiquity, and the various approaches  
of classicists drawing on textual and material culture.

Articles and book chapters from monographs or edited volumes,  
published in the past three years (i.e 2007, 2008, 2009) are eligible.  
Self-nominations are welcome; the nomination and selection process is  
confidential. Membership in the Caucus is not required, nor is any  
specific rank or affiliation.

Nominations should be made by October 31, 2009 to LCC co-chair, Bryan  
Burns <bburns at wellesley.edu>. Please provide full bibliographic  
information, a copy of the text, and/or contact information for the  
nominee. The award will be announced at the opening night reception of  
the APA/AIA meeting in Chicago.
