The John Edward Kerry Prize

The Malone Society has organized a competition for graduate students to celebrate the life work of one of our members, the late John Edward Kerry (1924 – 2008).

The Society is very pleased to announce that Matthew James Kubus (PhD candidate at the Shakespeare Institute, Stratford-upon-Avon) won the Prize in 2010.

In addition, the Prize has proved to be so popular that the Malone Society Council has decided to run it annually and to award 30 volumes to the best applicant each year.

About the 2011 competition
