Anthony Grafton is the laureate of the International Prize for History 2026

The CISH-Board is very pleased to inform that Prof. Anthony Grafton (Princeton University) is the laureate of the International Prize for History 2026.

Grafton’s exceptional productivity has made him one of the most prominent historians of our time. He is the author or editor of forty-three books and over 200 articles and book chapters. Just as impressive, his topics vary widely, from early modern intellectual history to the history of science and magic to Jewish history to history of the book.

He is teaching history as a discipline that encourages dialogue and a shared mission to find historical truth, among contemporaries and later generations.

The award will be delivered in Rome, Italy on 15 October 2026.
