Seminar 2: Three examples that reveal an interesting facet of the prize dynamic

I thought we were supposed to be posting these on Facebook, which I assumed to be on the Prizes and Pop Culture page, but up till now no one has done so and instead some have posted these on their blogs, so I suppose I shall follow suit...

My three chosen phrases or words are:
- "prize economy", in describing the system of prize-giving
- "'second generation' of book prizes", in referring to the historical emergence of book prizes
- "template", in describing the manner in which popularity for the Booker was generated

Hope this is correct, but I guess I'll find out in the morning!
