Grand Prix de l'Imaginaire

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Grand Prix de l'Imaginaire is a publisher-independent French literary prize for fantastic literature . It is the oldest still existing French prize of its kind. It has been awarded annually in several categories since 1974.

history

The prize was founded in 1974 by the author Jean-Pierre Fontana at a science fiction festival in Clermont-Ferrand as the Grand Prix de la Science-Fiction Française and has been called since 1992. The renaming took into account the fact that the award also opened up to genres other than science fiction ( fantasy and horror literature ) and international authors.

The winners are selected by a jury after a long pre-selection process and presented at a convention . Since the award ceremony was moved from the Utopiales in Nantes to the Étonnants Voyageurs in Saint-Malo from 2010 , there were two Grand Prix de l'Imaginaire for 2010.
