Research Paper Competition

The SCA has come to cover a vast stretch of human history: all the years before the seventeenth century, all across the world. A wonderful myriad of cultures have thrived in that long time span, and the SCA gives us all opportunities to sample - or drink deeply - from the experiences and examples of these long-ago peoples.

Write a short research paper about a slice of history you find particularly enthralling. It could be a culture, an event, an individual, or a particular historical development.

TO ENTER:

• Keep your entries to roughly five pages or 2,500 words
• Include your sources in some manner (c'mon, half the fun of reading papers is chasing down new sources)!
• ENTRY DEADLINE: 11:59PM, Sunday May 26th
• Submit papers to Hugo van Harlo

THE PRIZE: A Half-Price Books gift card will be awarded to two winners: one Mallet, Swan, or below, and another to a Laurel, Lily, or Hammer.

JUDGING/FEEDBACK SESSION: Wednesday 1:00-3:00; Entrants will be contacted with a specific time slot, but everyone is welcome to come be history geeks together at this time. Winners will be announced at court.

LOCATION: Bull Woods' camp kitchen (across from the showers and Heralds' Point, aka Laurel Holler)

JUDGES: Three awesome research-loving, history-geeking-out-on, paper-reading, friendly neighborhood Laurels:

• Mistress Jorunn Eydisardottir
• Master Rhodri ap Hywel
• Count Marius Lucian Fidelis

SPONSOR: Hugo van Harlo
