The Associazione Edoardo Benvenuto announces the third edition of the Edoardo Benvenuto Prize (year 2004) for the best research by a young scholar in the historical development of the Science and Art of Building.
The prize is addressed to young researchers with less than 40 years at the expiry date of the announcement (30 April 2004).
To participate it is necessary to submit an original published (after 01.01.2000) or unpublished work, which has not previously been awarded any prize or been referred to in any prior competition. The work should make reference to the art and science of building in their historical development. The work may be submitted in Italian, French, English, Spanish or German.
The works should be delivered to the prize secretary's office of the Associazione Edoardo Benvenuto by the 30 April 2004, by registered post, in triplicate, and should be completely legible, with indications of the name, surname, address, date of birth, telephone number, any e-mail address and a brief scientific curriculum of the author. The works will not be returned to their respective authors but will be available for consultation at the archive of the Associazione.
The jury will be comprised of 3 experts chosen by the Associazione Edoardo Benvenuto. The jury's decision will be final and irrevocable. The jury reserves the right to deny assignment of the prize where no work is considered to be worthy.
The winner will receive the sum of €1000 Euro as a prize.
The results of the competition will be notified by September 2004.
