AMERICAN COUNCIL OF LEARNED SOCIETIES American Council of Learned Societies

ANNUAL REPORT for the years 2006-2007 and 2005-2006 ANNUAL REPORT 2005-2007

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

“What the humanities are concerned with is keeping alive our heritage, re-examining and re-interpreting it so that it remains a living heritage, seeking to understand human nature through its past experience and achievements, and seeking to enhance our capacity to understand and enjoy the work of the wisest and most imaginative of mankind thus far.” ACLS President Frederick H. Burkhardt spoke those words when testifying before Congress in favor of creating the National Endowment for the Humanities in 1965. Not only did he help establish the NEH; Fred had essentially re-founded ACLS when he became the Council’s first president in 1957 and rescued it from insolvency. ACLS has achieved much since, and we therefore pay just tribute to Fred Burkhardt, who died in September 2007 at the age of 95. We dedicate this first of a new series of annual reports to his memory.

Supporting the exemplary work of dedicated researchers is one way by which ACLS carries out its mission of advancing humanistic studies. In 2006 and 2007, ACLS awarded $17.78 million in fellowships and grants to 512 scholars. This demonstrates the progress of the Fellowship Development Campaign, begun in 1997 to increase the size and scope of our fellowship offerings. Those offerings include both our endowed fellow­ships and programs targeting sequential career stages. In 2006, with a major grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, ACLS initiated the Early Career Fellowships, which aid rising scholars as they complete their dissertations and transition to research careers.

Our international programs, by awarding fellowships through trans- national peer-review structures, support both individual scholars and scholarly communities. The Humanities Program in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine has catalyzed a new association of humanities scholars—a new learned society—in that region. In 2005, ACLS and the Henry Luce Foundation began a joint initiative to strengthen the study of East and South­­east Asian archaeology and early history on both sides of the Pacific, with ACLS awarding fellowships to individuals and the Luce Foundation ACLS President Pauline Yu making grants to institutions.

Communities depend upon communication, and communication is evermore digital. In 2006, the ACLS Commission on Cyberinfrastructure in the Humanities and Social Sciences issued Our Cultural Commonwealth, a report that provides a framework for investments in new technologies that produce new knowledge. Our own experiment with new forms of scholarly communication has proven successful; in 2007, the ACLS History E-Book Project expanded into the Humanities E-Book collection. ACLS fellow­ ships incubate advances in this area. In 1965, ACLS funded scholars whose projects experimented with “computer-aided research in the humanities.” Today, a generous grant from the Mellon Foundation allows ACLS to offer Digital Innovation Fellowships.

This report can provide only the briefest summaries of activities and the essential lists of scholars we have honored with fellowships; individuals and organizations who have honored ACLS with their generosity; our financial statements; and rosters of our member societies, board members, and staff. Fuller information is available at www.acls.org. I particularly encourage you to read the descriptions of ACLS Fellows’ projects and For President Yu’s Reports to the Council, publi­cations; their work is the best indicator of the vibrancy of the humanities as a see www.acls.org/talks. living heritage.

1 INTRODUCTION

ACLS provides the humanities and related social sciences w it h le ade r sh ip, opp or t u n it ie s for i n novat ion, a nd n at ion a l and international representation. The American Council of Learned Societies was created in 1919 to represent the United States in the Union Académique Internationale. Its mission is “the advancement of humanistic studies in all fields of the humanities and social sciences and the maintenance and strengthening of national ­societies dedicated to those studies.”

2 AIDING RESEARCH

ACLS offers fellowships and grants in more than a dozen programs for research in the humanities and related social sciences at the doctoral and postdoctoral levels. In 2008, the Council will provide more than $9 million in fellowship stipends and other awards, supporting scholars at all stages of their careers. In the 2006–07 competition year, ACLS introduced the Mellon/ACLS Early Career Fellowship Program, designed to provide support for young scholars to complete their dissertation, and, later, to advance their research after being awarded the Ph.D. The first Dissertation Completion Fellowships were awarded to 65 doctoral candidates in 2007.

ACLS programs include: 

ACLS Fellowships, our central program, supporting research for completion of a For more information on major piece of scholarly work; ACLS Fellowships and Grants, see www.acls.org/fellowships. Charles A. Ryskamp Research Fellowships, for advanced assistant professors; Frederick Burkhardt Residential Fellowships for Recently Tenured Scholars, supporting recently ten­ured scholars to work on a long-term, unusually ambitious projects at a national research center; and ACLS Digital Innovation Fellowships, supporting work on a major scholarly project that takes a digital form.

STRENGTHENING RELATIONS AMONG SOCIETIES

The 69 member learned societies of ACLS are national or international organizations in the humanities and related social sciences. The Conference of Administrative Officers (CAO) serves as the primary vehicle for maintaining and enhancing relationships among the societies and between the societies and ACLS. The CAO convenes twice each year to address concerns common to the community of humanistic scholars, For more information on particularly issues related to maintaining and improving conditions for research, ACLS member societies, affiliates, and associates, education, and communication among scholars. The 2006 CAO meeting was held in see www.acls.org/membership. Kansas City; the 2005 meeting, in San Jose.

3 INTERNATIONAL SCHOLARSHIP

ACLS was founded in 1919 to represent the United States in the Union Académique Internationale and continues to promote international scholarship. The Humanities Program in Belarus, Russia, and Ukraine distributes grants to individual scholars to sustain individuals doing exemplary work so as to ensure future leadership in the humanities. Other programs offering aid to international scholars include Chinese Fellowships for Scholarly Development, Luce/ACLS Grants to Individuals in East and Southeast Asian Archaeology and History, and New Perspectives on Chinese Culture and Society. The Center for Educational Exchange with Vietnam, a subsidiary organiza­ For more information on ACLS-funded scholarship, see tion, administers and supports educational and academic exchanges between Vietnam www.acls.org/awardees. and the United States.

SCHOLARLY COMMUNICATION

ACLS has a continuing interest in the problems of scholarly publication. The ACLS Commission on Cyberinfrastructure in the Humanities and Social Sciences released Our Cultural Commonwealth in fall 2006, a final report on its investigation into ­technology and humanistic research. It is a call to develop the cyber­infra­struture necessary for scholarship in the humanities and social sciences. Another initiative, the Social Science Translation Project, brought together a group of translators, editors, and social scientists to discuss problems arising from the translation of a variety of texts that employ social-scientific concepts. It produced Guidelines for the Translation of Social Science Texts, which was published in eight languages in 2006. In 2007, the History E-Book Project was renamed Humanities E-Book. The collection now consists For more information on ACLS programs and initiatives, of over 1,700 full-text titles offered by ACLS in collaboration with 12 learned societies see www.acls.org/programs. and nearly 95 contributing publishers.

ANNUAL MEETING

The annual meeting of the American Council of Learned Societies brings together delegates and administrative officers of our member societies, representatives of institutional associates and affiliates, and friends of ACLS from foundations, from government agencies, and from across the academic and public humanities. The 2007 annual meeting was held in Montreal, where Linda Nochlin delivered the 2007 Charles Homer Haskins Prize Lecture on “A Life of Learning.” The 2006 lecture was delivered by Martin E. Marty at the annual meeting in Phila­delphia. Both lectures are available in the ACLS Occasional Paper series. The 2006 annual meeting included the ACLS/ Association of American Universities Humanities Convocation, which focused on the For more information on ACLS annual meetings, see AAU’s report, Reinvigorating the Humanities: Enhancing Research and Education on www.acls.org/annual_meeting. Campus and Beyond.

FUNDING

ACLS is funded by public and private grants, endowment income, annual subscrip- tions from university and college associates, dues from constituent societies and affiliates, government contracts, and individual gifts. Launched in 1997, the Fellowship Development Campaign seeks contributions to enlarge the ACLS endowment devoted to fellowships and thereby to raise significantly fellowship stipends. In addition to the fellowship campaign, ACLS gratefully accepts contributions to funds that honor specific individuals whose work has advanced humanistic scholarship. Recent initiatives are the ACLS/Frederic E. Wakeman, Jr. Fellowship Fund for fellowships in Chinese history that, when fully endowed, will support a postdoctoral fellow of any For more information on ACLS funding, see rank in his honor; and contributions in memory of Frederick H. Burkhardt, president www.acls.org/funding. emeritus of ACLS, in support of The Correspondence of Charles Darwin.
