The Association for Mormon Letters (AML) is a nonprofit founded in 1976 to promote quality writing "by, for, and about Mormons." The broadness of this definition of Mormon literature has led the AML to focus on a wide variety of work that has sometimes been neglected in the Mormon community. The association holds an annual conference, usually held in Utah. Proceedings of the conferences were published until 2003. Since 1995 the AML sponsored AML-List, an e-mail list for the discussion of Mormon literature. List subscribers posted reviews of thousands of Mormon books, films, and other artistic works.〔〕 Besides the Annual, The AML also published the literary journal ''Irreantum'' from 1999 to 2013 and the literature blog ''Dawning of a Brighter Day'' since 2009. ==Awards== ''See full article: AML Awards'' Since 1977, the AML has given awards to the best work "by, for, and about Mormons." They are juried awards. When the Whitney Awards were begun in 2008, with awards decided by a voting academy, many saw them as a populist reaction against the more academic AML Awards. The award categories vary from year to year depending on what the AML decides is worthy of honor. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Association for Mormon Letters」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
