Dear Art History Scholars:

ABC-CLIO, the leading publisher of academic reference works, is in the
process of developing a comprehensive 21-volume Encyclopedia of World
History. We are looking for interested scholars to prepare 500-1500 word
articles relating to the history of art and design.

Compensation: contributors will have their names associated with the
entries they contribute, and will receive access to the e-book version
of the entire encyclopedia (list price $1,800) for personal use.
Contributors assigned 3,000 words or more will also receive a credit of
$300 towards purchase of ABC-CLIO books.In order to meet review
standards, we do require that contributors hold a Ph.D., ABD or be
currently enrolled in a doctoral program.

If you are interested in writing 1 or more of the entries listed below,
please send a c.v. to Fred Nadis and/or Jeanie Azizian:
