Jenny d'Héricourt Fellowship 

The Jenny d'Héricourt Fellowship is jointly administered by the French Association for American Studies (Association française d’études américaines) and AAS. It funds a one-to-two-month residence to do research on any topic supported by the collections of the Society. The fellowship includes housing in the Society’s Fellows’ Residence and a € 1800 stipend paid by the AFEA in two installments (50% before leaving; 50% at the end of the stay after the completion of a report that will be sent to the AFEA). One fellowship is awarded every year.
