Every year, at the beginning of December, a jury composed of some of the best First and Second Empire historians awards in the name of the Fondation Napoléon four Grands Prix.
These Grands Prix, each of 15,250 Euros, are awarded respectively to :
• a work in French on the history of France's First Empire
• a work in French on the history of France's Second Empire
• a work in a language which is not French on the history of France's First or Second Empires
• a audio-visual or musical work or novel related to the history of France's First or Second Empires.
To compete for a Grand Prix, all you have to do is :
• For a book : send 15 copies of the work to the Fondation Napoléon (and directly to the members of the jury) who will then send them on to the jury.
• For audio-visual or musical works : send in the same way fifteen copies of the work, with accompanying presentation dossier.
