Jarrod Hayes AJFS Prize

The Australian Society for French Studies and the Australian Journal of French Studies now invite submissions for the annual co-sponsored Jarrod Hayes AJFS Prize. This prize honours the memory and recognises the enduring influence of Jarrod Hayes on the French Studies community, including its postgraduate and early career members, in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, and beyond.

A prize of AU$800 will be awarded to the best article (5,000 to 6,500 words including notes) on any aspect of French Studies (except French language Studies) by a postgraduate student. The winner will be announced at the ASFS annual conference, and the winning essay will be submitted to peer-review and potential publication in the Australian Journal of French Studies.
