Scholarships & Prizes

The Society offers scholarships in honor of the late Gloria Flaherty, the accomplished scholar and founding member of the Goethe Society. Since 2008, the Society has been awarding those scholarships exclusively for dissertation workshops at GSNA conferences.

The Society also offers an annual essay prize, which carries an award of $500, as well as the Richard Sussman Prize for the best essay on Goethe’s contributions to the sciences and on Goethe in the history of science. That prize also carries an award of $500.
