Kluge Prize

The Prize rewards sustained achievement in a wide range of disciplines including history, philosophy, politics, anthropology, sociology, religion, criticism in the arts and humanities, and linguistics—disciplines not covered by the Nobel Prizes. The Prize is awarded on a semi-regular basis, usually every two to three years.
