Book Prize

The Book Prize honors the contributions of Latine scholars in fields related to the study of religion and theology. Each year, this award recognizes and rewards the best book authored by a junior Latine scholar. The prize includes a monetary award and a guest lectureship at the annual HTI Professional Development Conference at Princeton Theological Seminary.

The immediate and long-term goals are to:

• • present models that will inspire further contributions by Latine scholars
  • assist junior scholars leverage tenure
  • recognize, reward, and publicize the best book written by a Latine junior scholar in the related fields
  • provide faculty with the best and most current Latine book(s) to consider for required and recommended course texts

Past winners have included some of the foremost voices in Latine scholarship in the United States. The recipient of the HTI Book Prize receives a monetary award and is invited to lecture on their book during HTI’s annual Professional Development Conference at Princeton Theological Seminary.
