2007 Cliopatria Awards Nominations: BEST WRITING

by Cliopatria

Nominations are now closed.
Look for the winners to be announced in January

Please submit, in comments below, your nominations for the best writer on a history blog since 1 December 2006. [registration not required to post nominations, but the usual rules of civility and conduct still apply] Nominations will be accepted from November 1st through 30th.

Please include a URL for the posts (not just a URL for the blog). You many nominate as many posts or series as you wish in this category, and you may nominate individual blogs or bloggers in other categories as well.

If you want ideas of blogs or writers to nominate, see the History Blogroll or past editions of the History Carnival or its related carnivals.

Bloggers do not need to be academic historians. If you're not sure whether a blog or blogger qualifies as"history," nominate them anyway and the judges will make a final determination. If you have questions, feel free to contact Ralph Luker or leave a comment here.

Judging Committee: Ancarett, Sharon Howard, John Carter Wood
[Judges are ineligible to win awards they are judging, but feel free to nominate them for something else!]

Brandon Scott Watson - 12/1/2007

For her writing on Victorian literature and academic life at <a hre="http://littleprofessor.typepad.com/the_little_professor/">The Little Professor</a>.

Alun Salt - 12/1/2007

For his posts at Airminded http://airminded.org and Revise and Dissent http://hnn.us/blogs/56.html

Basically if I see Brett's name on the RSS feed for Revise and Dissent I know there's going to be something interesting to read.

Declaration: I co-blog on Revise and Dissent.

It's a bit impertinent to nominate oneself. Therefore, I nominate myself.

Ralph Luker - 11/17/2007

I nominate Eric Rauchway, who blogs at Open University, The Huffington Post, Altercation (one of many examples of his posts there, for which I can't find an aggregator), and earlier at POTUS.

In my view, David Kaiser of History Unfolding is the best writer in the history blogosphere today, bar none. This was an easy choice.
