A biennial prize for a distinctive first book of poetry in English published in Britain or Ireland.
This annual award recognises individuals who have made an exceptional contribution to the broad field of English Studies, particularly teachers, academics, and practitioners in the early stages of their career.
The competition provides an ideal opportunity for students to enhance their CV through the publication of their work in an excellent high-profile journal that caters to a very wide range of genres, periods, and critical approaches.
The prize has been established by the English Association in memory of Margaret Mallett, a Fellow of the English Association and a long-serving member of the editorial board of our journal English 4-11, who died after a short illness in March 2017.
An opportunity for students aged 11 – 19 to demonstrate their creativity and engagement with an adaptation of one of Shakespeare’s texts.
Awarded each year to the best scholarly article noticed in the Year’s Work in English Studies (YWES) in the fields of English Literature before 1590.
Established in 1995, the awards are presented by the English Association to the best children’s picture books of the year.
