On behalf of the family, Isla Jack said: Each year, we take great heart from the people researching in the fields of reception and diaspora in Scottish Literatures who also take the time to submit their work for this award established in Ronnie’s memory. Again, they have provided us with a diverse range of research to consider, spanning different continents, authors and perspectives. Our warmest congratulations go to Eleoma Bodammer as the seventh recipient of the Jack medal, and hope others are encouraged to continue to respond to this year’s call for applications.’
