Special Grants for Fellows

The maximum grant is $20,000 to an institution, or $5,000 to one or individual organizers. This grant cannot be combined with other funding provided by I Tatti. Please note that this grant must be disbursed to an institution named by that individual, or to the individual who made the application.

Provides grants each year for forthcoming scholarly books on the Italian Renaissance.

Grants can be made to the publisher, to cover some but not all production costs, or to the applicant, to reimburse expenses, e.g. for photographs and reproduction rights.

Most grants are of $5,000, but the subsidy for major, expensive books can go as high as $8,000. In all cases, the grant will only be released when the book is published, and after all invoices or receipts are presented to I Tatti. Please note that repeat grants are very rare. This grant cannot be combined with other funding provided by I Tatti.

A short cover letter, specifying the amount requested (in US dollars).

A breakdown of total production costs for grants made to publishers or an itemized list of expenses for grants made to individuals.

Provides grants to support seminars and conference sessions dedicated to any aspect of the Italian Renaissance, broadly understood historically to include the period from the 14th to the 17th century and geographically to include transnational dialogues between Italy and other cultures.

Grants are intended to encourage the presence of the Renaissance at sites where it is less visible.

All Harvard-appointed Fellows (Full-year and Term, including Graduate Fellows) are eligible to apply for this competitive grant. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, and can be made after the fellowship period begins, and within one year after the fellowship period ends.

This grant cannot be combined with other funding provided by I Tatti. Please note that this grant must be disbursed to the individual who made the application.
