        The Aston Magna Foundation for Music and the Humanities announces
the 12th cross-disciplinary Aston Magna Academy under the direction of
Raymond Erickson to be held June 18 to July 8, 1995 at the Mason Gross School
of the Arts, Rutgers University (New Brunswick, NJ).  Supported by a major
grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the 1995 Aston Magna
Academy will bring together approximately 80 scholars and artists representing
the fields of art, architecture, cultual history, dance, literature, music
history and performance, history of science, religion, theatre, Spanish and
Latin American studies, among others, to explore the topic "Cultural Cross-
Currents: Spain and Latin America, ca. 1550-1750."  The focus of the program
will be on Spanish culture from the peak of the Golden Age up to the Enlighten-
ment and its transformation in the New World, especially colonial Mexico and
Peru.  Faculty lectures, demonstrations and masterclasses will be supplemented
with ad hoc discussion groups, readings of drama, poetry and music, presenta-
tions by participants who are themselves specialists in the area, and classes
in historical dance.  Twenty-two NEH fellowships will be available for full-
time humanities faculty at American colleges.  Limited scholarship assistance
from non-Federal sources will be available for those not qualifying for NEH
stipends (e.g., graduate students, freelance scholars, musicians, dancers
and others).  Application dealine is March 1, 1995, although late applications
will be considered if openings remain.
        Application forms and detailed program information packets will be
sent in January.  For application form and detailed program information
contact:  Joseph Darby, Academy Administrator, 120 West 44th Street #1001,
New York, NY 10036-4020.  Telephone (212) 819-9123.
