Advertisement of 2 Scholarships for Doctoral Studies (October 2024 - September 2028) in the Doctoral Program: "Ancient Philosophy and History of Ancient Science"
The Graduate School Scholarship Program (GSSP) of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) is offering two (2) doctoral scholarships to earn a PhD within the framework of "Ancient Philosophy and History of Ancient Science" doctoral program of the Berlin Graduate School of Ancient Studies.
We welcome applications from highly qualified graduates from the fields of: Ancient Philosophy, Classics, History of Ancient Science, Ancient Near Eastern Studies, Arabic Philosophy and Science, Jewish Philosophy and Aesthetics
Applicants must hold an outstanding Master's degree (MA, MSt, or MSc) or equivalent in one of the aforementioned disciplines or be very close to completion.
Objectives of the doctoral program "Ancient Philosophy and History of Ancient Science"
The doctoral program Ancient Philosophy and History of Ancient Science<https://www.berliner-antike-kolleg.org/bergsas/programme/aphil-histas/index.html> is dedicated to ancient philosophy and the special sciences that developed in the ancient Mediterranean and ancient Near East, their interrelationship, their historical context as well as their later impact in the Arabic speaking world and the modern era. The main sources are scientific and philosophical texts, but also scientific instruments and other forms of material evidence. The program is divided into two curricular paths, which are selected before the beginning of the doctoral program.
For the Ancient Philosophy path, we particularly welcome dissertation proposals, which are concerned with ancient philosophy in the stricter sense and with the more general, intellectual and theoretical aspects of the ancient sciences (including mathematics, medicine, and other disciplines that we might not today consider special sciences, such as grammar or divination).
For the History of Ancient Science path, we welcome (but not exclusively) dissertation proposals that consider philological, historical, social and cultural aspects of the ancient scientific theories and practices in their social and cultural contexts, in the Graeco-Roman world as well as in the ancient Near Eastern, Early Christian and Islamic worlds.
Applicants are be expected to have sufficient command of the relevant ancient languages for their dissertation project. Since the language of instruction is predominantly English, your active language skills should be good enough to participate in discussions and to be able to write academic texts and papers.
Doctoral researchers are expected to participate in Digital Humanities training offered as part of BerGSAS.

The Graduate School Scholarship Program (GSSP) of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) is
offering two doctoral scholarships to carry out a doctorate within the framework of “Languages and Cultures
of the Silk Road” program at Freie Universität Berlin.
Applicants must have an outstanding Master's degree (MA, MSt or MSc) in the subject Iranian studies, Near
Eastern Archaeology, Prehistoric Archaeology, or East Asian Art and Archaeology, or be close to graduation.
Doctoral researchers are expected to participate in Digital Humanities training offered as part of BerGSAS
curriculum.
The doctoral program https://www.berliner-antike-kolleg.org/bergsas/programme/silk-road/index.html
covers Asia since prehistoric times and Central Asia. It concentrates mainly on the range of attested
languages and literatures of Buddhist, Manichaean, Zoroastrian, and Christian communities. The Turfan
Collection in Berlin provides a unique opportunity to study original materials. A wealth of recently excavated
archaeological sites and find materials in Central and Eastern Asia allow new approaches to a number of old
questions concerning the complex cultural history along the Silk Roads. Applicants are free to choose their
topic, and it is important to remember that artifacts and texts that have already been published often have
a lot more to reveal than has already been discovered. The following is an indication of the kind of topics
possible and is not intended to exhaust or limit the possibilities.
PhD proposals in the field of Iranian studies: The focus is of Iranian languages and literatures until Late
Antiquity and about the main religious streams current in the Iranian area, including Zoroastrianism, its
origins, evolution and spread in Central Asia. Welcome are linguistic topics, e.g., studies of the verbal system
and a detailed analysis of its use in Middle Persian or Parthian texts, the transition between Middle Persian
and New Persian, Studies of the Sogdian Buddhist and Christian text tradition, problems of dialectological
variation relating to religious communities, scribal conventions. Also welcome are studies on Avestan
linguistics. Literary studies could be e.g., the composition of Manichaean Parthian hymn-cycles or the
analysis of the constitution of the Middle Persian Zoroastrian literature and its relationship to the
Manichaean one, etc. The composition of the Avestan corpus in Central Asia or Eastern Iran and the reasons
and processes leading to its spreading in Western Iran are also of central interest. Religious subjects,
especially concerning the multifarious relationships between the Manichaean and the Zoroastrian doctrines
and with other communities would provide many interesting research topics as do also other problems of
Zoroastrianism and its relationship to other Iranian religions (like the Bactrian religious system). Pre-
knowledge of the textual body to be studied and a good working knowledge of relevant research languages
are indispensable.
PhD proposals in the field of archaeology and art history: Technical and statistical analyses of excavated
finds, detailed in-depth studies of particular object groups or materials, archaeobotanical and
zooarchaeological studies related to environmental and climate change and societal transformations are
welcome. In processing the source material, a holistic view of the entire living environment from which the
material originates and an understanding of a broad transregional interconnectedness of phenomena is
expected. We encourage discussions on current issues of the interdependence of archaeology, art, cultural
history and colonial history, decolonization, indigenous concerns and viewpoints, restitution.
Who can apply?
The call is only open to applicants who do not have German citizenship and who have not yet obtained a PhD.
Applicants must not have been resident in Germany for more than since 1 December 2022. The Master’s
degree must not have been obtained before 1 March 2018.
Funding
The scholarships are available from 1 October 2024 (Winter semester 2024/25) for four years, subject to a
satisfactory annual review. In accordance with DAAD guidelines, doctoral scholarship holders receive a stipend
of 1,200 EUR a month, a travel allowance, a health, accident and liability insurance policy, allowances for study
& research (family allowances, depending on the individual situation and upon request); support for a pre-
sessional German language course. Plus, material resources of 1,000 EUR per year, managed through the
academic supervisor's institute.
Application process

millennium BCE onwards. Fellowships are awarded to scholars working in the Humani-
ties, especially in the fields of History, History of Religion or in the fields of Sociology
and Urban Studies with a focus on historical and religious developments in the pre-
modern era especially. During the second funding phase, the group will focus on pro-
cesses of ‘group formation and segmentation’, ‘mercantilisation’ and ‘boundary
demarcation’.

AntCom Call for applications
Are you interested in cultural heritage, reception studies and/or the new frontiers of classics? Are you passionate about cutting-edge research but you also want to boost your skills by learning about new approaches and technologies? We might have something for you.
AntCom network publishes a call for 10 PhD fellowships within the training program “From Antiquity to Community: Rethinking Classical Heritage through Citizen Humanities”. The positions are funded by the European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under the Marie Sktodowska-Curie Action, Grant Agreement 101073543.
AntCom training and research programme in a nutshell
What is the role of classical heritage in building modern, plural, diverse European identities? To answer this question the consortium “From Antiquity to Community: Rethinking Classical Heritage through Citizen Humanities” (AntCom) will train a new generation of 10 highly skilled cultural heritage researchers allowing them to fully engage in the digital transition as well as to address its professional and societal challenges.
AntCom will create a team of early-stage researchers equipped to design, implement and manage open-science projects, building on advanced techniques of digitization and data collection. AntCom looks at both tangible and intangible classical heritage in Europe within three main areas: 1. Manuscript heritage; 2. Linguistic heritage; 3. Ritual and narrative heritage. As a consortium of 4 universities – University of Southern Denmark, University of Verona, University of Salento, and University of Santiago de Compostela – and 8 associated partners AntCom will provide fellows with the skills and training to lead heritage research in Europe and to be employable in academia, curatorial institutions, science communication, industrial imaging and tourism.
AntCom offers the first structured training program in Citizen Science for the humanities (Citizen Humanities). It prioritises both open science and innovative curatorial techniques (Multi- and Hyperspectral Imaging) to encourage cooperation between researchers and communities. Professionals trained by AntCom will have the skills to bring heritage back to communities and build more complete, sustainable narratives and memory practices about Europe’s classical past. AntCom builds on a high-level, integrated cooperation between the humanities and STEM, inspired by the notion that both areas equally provide skills suitable to meet current needs of the job market and to create a better, more resilient society.
Applications will be accepted from 24/02/2023 until 24/04/2023 at 12:00 pm (Central European Time).
