The fifth biennial Imago Mundi Prize will be awarded in 2013 to
honour the Imago Mundi article judged to have made the most significant
contribution to the discipline.
The judges will consider articles published in the 2011 and 2012 issues (volumes 63 and
64). The winner will receive $1000 and will automatically qualify for a J.B. Harley
Travel Award to the next International Conference
on the History of Cartography (Helsinki, Finland, 2013). The winner will also receive a
certificate, which, if he or she is able to attend, will be presented at the conference.
Full length articles will be eligible for the Prize, but not shorter articles, since only
full length articles are automatically subject to the (anonymous) external refereeing
process before acceptance for publication. Directors of Imago Mundi Ltd (who take it in
turns to serve on the panel of judges) are not eligible for consideration.
The Imago Mundi Prize is generously sponsored by Kenneth Nebenzahl.
