This announcement from the Translation Program of the (U.S.) National
Endowment for the Humanities recently appeared on HUMANIST.  I can certainly
think of a whole host of valuable translations that could be made in the
historical sciences.  Perhaps someone here would like to send NEH a proposal?

     The TRANSLATIONS PROGRAM of the NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE
HUMANITIES supports individuals or collaborations among scholars
to translate into English works that are germane to the history,
literature, philosophy, and artistic achievements of other
cultures, thereby making the thought and learning of those
civilizations available to scholars teachers, students, and the
public.  The program has supported a broad range of projects,
including the translation of single works, the complete works of
a particular writer, and anthologies.  Translations of texts from
virtually all of the European languages have garnered support
from the Endowment, as well as texts from a vast array of
languages--ancient and modern, Eastern and Western, oral and
written.  American citizens and institutions and foreign
nationals who have been living in the United States for at least
three years are eligible to apply.

     The next application deadline is June 1, 1994 for projects
beginning after April 1, 1995.  For more information call Helen
