C. Eric Lincoln foundations: consultations-research support files, 1974-1993.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/38477120

The collection consists of files relating to C. Eric Lincoln's consultation-research support through various foundations from 1974-1993. Includes reports, minutes of meetings, research proposals, program statements, and grant applications. As the leading scholar on Black religion, Lincoln lent his expertise to foundations that funded proposals in such areas as the Black Church and religion. This series contains hundreds of documents from these foundations which offer a picture of Lincoln's involvement with them, not only as a consultant, but as a recipient of funds for his own research proposals. Included in these records are reports to the Eli Lilly Foundation which funded his massive research into the Black Church in America, including the initial proposal. These documents offer an insight to the direction the research was taking throughout the project and to some of the early conclusions brought by Lincoln as a result of his efforts. Other records include expense accounts and travel records accumulated during consultant meetings and field research.
