text: # Lists of humanities awards
  
  Lists of humanities awards are lists that serve as indexes to articles about notable awards for specific areas of the humanities, academic disciplines that study aspects of human society and culture. Typically these lists give the country of the sponsoring organization, the award name, sponsor name and a description of the award criteria. Some of the awards have broad scope, or cover the intersection of different disciplines, so an award may appear in more than one list. A list of general awards in the humanities is followed by the lists of more specific awards.
