Stipendien, Forschungspreise und Förderprogramme
- Ernst von Sieglin Forschungspreis für NachwuchswissenschaftlerInnen der Klassischen ArchäologieSep 23Freitag, 23. September 2022 18:05
Institut für Klassische Archäologie der Eberhard Karl Universität Tübingen
Der Unternehmer und Kunstmäzen Dr. Ernst von Sieglin (1848-1927) finanzierte zwischen
1898 und 1902 mehrere Expeditionen nach Alexandria sowie Grabungen in Kos,
erwarb zahlreiche ägyptische, griechische und römische Exponate für die Tübinger
Universitätssammlung und förderte durch großzügige Stipendien deren wissenschaftliche
Bearbeitung. An diese Tradition wollen die Nachfahren nun anknüpfen und stiften 2018
erstmals den international ausgeschriebenen
Ernst von Sieglin Forschungspreis
für NachwuchswissenschaftlerInnen der Klassischen Archäologie.
Gefördert wird damit jährlich der Druck einer qualitativ hochwertigen Monographie aus einem
zentralen Bereich der Klassischen Archäologie in der Schriftenreihe „Tübinger Archäologische
Forschungen“ in Höhe von bis zu 5.000 Euro.
Die Arbeit sollte in einem gewissen Zusammenhang mit den Interessensgebieten von Ernst von Sieglin
und den von ihm geförderten Projekten stehen. Diese beschränkten sich jedoch nicht nur auf
Ausgrabungen in Alexandria oder Kos, sondern erstreckten sich generell auf die materielle Kultur
des Mittelmeerraumes.
Bewerbungen sollten ein kurzes Anschreiben sowie das zum Druck vorgeschlagene Manuskript beinhalten
und sind in elektronischer Form bis zum 27.11.2022 an das Sekretariat des Archäologischen Instituts
der Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen zu senden

DARWIN COLLEGE CAMBRIDGE
Darwin College invites applications for election to a stipendiary Moses and Mary Finley Research Fellowship in Ancient History starting from 1 October 2023.
The Fellowship is available for research into economic, social or political history of any period and (unlike the Finley Ancient History Fellowship) is not confined to specialists in Greek or Roman history, although they are eligible to apply. Preference will be given to those whose interests coincide with those of the late Sir Moses Finley. Darwin College is able to elect this stipendiary Research Fellow thanks to a bequest in the Will of Sir Moses and Lady Finley. In addition, Sir Moses bequeathed his personal library to the College. This may assist the research of the successful candidate.
Eligibility
The Fellowship is open to candidates from any university, irrespective of age.
The Fellowship is intended for an outstanding researcher who is completing, or who has recently completed, their PhD Degree, or an equivalently recognised degree. No candidate should normally have completed in total more than three years of research since the PhD is conferred by 1 October 2023. Any career breaks or part-time working will be taken into account.
Duties and conditions
The Research Fellow is expected to pursue full-time research based in Cambridge.
The Research Fellow will be a member of the Governing Body of Darwin College and will be subject to the Statutes and Ordinances of the College. The Statutes include the obligation to reside in or near Cambridge, for at least two-thirds of each University term, but the Governing Body will normally excuse absences made necessary by the nature of the research undertaken.
Tenure
The Research Fellowship is tenable for three years, with effect from 1 October 2023 and is renewable for one further year to a maximum of four years at the discretion of the Fellowships Committee.
Stipend and Emoluments
The starting stipend for the Finley Research Fellow with a PhD will be set at not less than Point 28 on the Darwin College Single Salary spine (2022-23 rate: £24,059.29), subject to annual cost-of-living uplift and to annual increments (the third year stipend at the 2022-23 rate would be £25,858.82). The stipend will be subject to a 10% reduction until the appointee’s PhD is conferred.
Membership of the Universities’ Superannuation Scheme is optional.
Research Fellows are entitled under the College’s Ordinances to dine (including formal hall) and lunch free of charge at the normal College table whenever meals are served (up to a limit of seven meals in each week). Guests, not normally exceeding two in number on any one occasion, may be entertained at lunch or dinner, ten of them free of charge within any quarter (note termly guest nights with a special menu are subject to charge).
An allowance of up to £1,000 a year will be available for receipted travel and research expenses. A further £500 a year is available on application as a subsidy for appropriate conferences mounted in the College.
It may be possible to provide limited rented accommodation for up to two years, subject to availability, for which a charge will be made.
A non-pensionable additional allowance of £3,000 per annum (subject to annual review) will be paid to any Finley Research Fellow not resident in College.
Applications
Applications should be made by 2 October 2022 at:
https://app.casc.cam.ac.uk/fas_live/darfinley.aspx
and include:
(a) curriculum vitae;
(b) a summary of research, in not more than 500 words, for a non-specialist audience

University of Cambridge - Gonville & Caius College
Gonville & Caius College intends to elect two Research Fellows in Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences in 2023. Candidates should be graduate students or post-doctoral researchers who will either be in their final year of doctoral research or not more advanced than one year since the first submission of their PhD. Research Fellowships are awarded to individuals with an exceptionally strong academic record who have produced innovative doctoral research in any branch of the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences.
The Fellowships will be tenable for four years from 1 October 2023. Research Fellows have the full entitlement of Fellows; they are expected to spend the tenure of their Fellowship in Cambridge and to contribute to the life of the College. Permission may be granted for periods of research away from Cambridge.
A Research Fellowship at Caius is compatible with a simultaneous appointment to a salaried post-doctoral position in a Cambridge Department or Faculty. Such a person appointed to a Research Fellowship would be entitled to all the benefits of a Research Fellow other than stipend. If the post-doctoral position comes to an end before the end of the four-year Fellowship, the College's usual stipend will apply for the remainder of the time.
The current stipend offered is either (a) £24,608, rising by three annual increments to £27,392 if living in College accommodation as a single person, which is free, or in College couples' or family accommodation, if available, which is subsidised, or (b) £27,624 rising by 3 annual increments to £30,379 if not living in College accommodation. All stipends are subject to annual cost of living review each October. Other benefits include 10 free meals per week and certain research expenses may be reimbursed. There are also opportunities for College teaching (up to six hours per week), which attracts extra payment.
Candidates must submit written work for assessment at the same time as their application. Apart from quotations, the work must be in English. If a complete PhD and/or published work is submitted, the applicant should indicate which parts are the most important; a maximum of 30,000 words will be assessed.
Applications open on Thursday 1 September 2022 and must be completed by Friday 30 September 2022. Shortlisting will take place on Monday 9 January 2023. Those selected will be invited for interview on Friday 13 January 2023, so candidates should ensure that they will be available for interview on that day, if required. Offers will be made shortly after the interviews and must be accepted by 4.00 pm on Wednesday 18 January 2023 at the latest.
The College is an equal opportunities employer and actively supports equality, diversity, and inclusion, and encourages applications from all sections of society. Elections to Research Fellowships are made purely on the basis of intellectual and academic attainment and promise.

Closing Date: Friday 30th September 2022 at 23:59 - Getty Villa: The Classical World in Context: AnatoliaAug 18Donnerstag, 18. August 2022 16:02
The Getty Villa Scholars program will examine relations between the Greek cities of western Asia Minor and Anatolian civilizations from the 2nd millennium to the Roman Imperial period. In the Late Bronze Age, diplomatic ties linked the Hittite and Luwian kingdoms with the Mycenaeans at Miletos. During the 7th and 6th centuries BCE, the eastern Greeks were at the forefront of revolutionary advances in the arts, monumental architecture, poetry, philosophy, history, and the natural sciences. This "Ionian Enlightenment," however, culminated within a dynamic cultural and political setting alongside Phrygia, Lydia, Caria, and Lycia, which had already emerged as regional powers over the previous two centuries. Subject to Persian rule after 547 BCE, Greek and Anatolian communities redefined their own identities until the conquest of Alexander the Great and the advent of Roman rule once again transformed the cultural landscapes of the entire region.
The 2023–2024 Getty Villa Scholars Program launches a two-year initiative on the interconnectivities that conditioned relations between East Greeks and their Anatolian neighbors, and the consequent impact on the wider Mediterranean. Priority will be given to research projects that explore multidisciplinary approaches to art and material culture, texts, and other sources.
Application deadline is November 1, 2022.

Institute for Research in the Humanities, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Call for Applications 2023-2024
Deadline: Thursday, October 27, 2022
Through the generous bequests of Robert M. Kingdon and Friedrich and Lieselotte Solmsen, the Institute for Research in the Humanities at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is pleased to announce competitions for two Robert M. Kingdon Fellowships and four Solmsen Fellowships for the academic year 2023-2024, to be awarded to scholars from outside the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Kingdon Fellowships sponsor scholars working in the humanities in the historical, literary, artistic, and/or philosophical studies of Christian and/or Jewish religious traditions and their role in society. Projects may focus on any period from antiquity to the present, on any part of the world, and in any field(s) in the humanities. They may explore various forms of the Jewish and/or Christian traditions; the interaction of one or both of these with other religious traditions; and/or the relationship of one or both of these religions to other aspects of society within or outside of Europe.
Solmsen Fellowships are to be awarded to scholars working in the humanities on European history, literature, philosophy, politics, religion, art and culture in the classical, medieval, and/or early modern periods (before 1700). Projects on the relationship of pre-1700 Europe to other parts of the world are also welcome.
Kingdon and Solmsen Fellows are expected to be in residence at the IRH throughout the academic year (except for short research trips, lectures, conferences, etc.) and may extend this residency through the following summer on a non-stipendiary basis. However, the fellowship may not be deferred for any reason. The award provides a stipend of $60,000, office space, support services, and access to all university facilities. Fellows are expected to present their work at an Institute seminar and participate in the weekly seminars. Applicants must be in possession of the doctorate at the time of application.
Applications are due Thursday, October 27, 2022. Notification of awards will be made by early March. Scholars with projects applicable to both fellowship calls are welcome to apply to both the Kingdon and Solmsen competitions.
