Dear Professor Lebowitz:
 
As secretary of the Isaac and Tamara Deutscher Memorial Prize Committee, I am delighted to inform you that the Committee has awarded you the 2004 Prize for the new edition of your work, Beyond Capital:Marx’s Political Economy of the Working Class.   Each year the winner of the prize is asked to give a lecture, broadly on the subject addressed in the prize winning work.   Your lecture will take place in London in November 2005.   The prize of £250.00  will be awarded at the lecture.   The Committee will be happy to pay your return travel costs, and two nights at a hotel in London.
 
I believe that you have already informally accepted the prize, but I should be grateful if, for our records, you would send me your formal acceptance.   This can be by email.
 
With our congratulations on your important contribution to Marxist scholarship,
Best wishes,
Yours sincerely,
Professor Elizabeth Wilson
