The Sophie Coe Prize in Food History - 2013

The Sophie Coe Prize is the longest-running and most generous prize for writing in
food history in the English language. First awarded in 1995, the prize was founded
in memory of Sophie Coe, the eminent food historian who died in 1994.

In 2013 there will be a single prize of £1,500. The winner will be chosen by an
anonymous panel of distinguished judges and awarded to the author of an original,
informative article or essay on some aspect of food history that embodies new
research or provides new insights. Published and unpublished work may be
submitted. If the former, it must have been published within the last 12 months of
the submission deadline. If the latter, it must be in immediately publishable form.

The submission deadline this year is 1st May 2013. Please consult the detailed
