- Scholarships "The Poetics of Social Change in Late Antiquity "Sep 14Donnerstag, 14. September 2023 10:48
We invite applications for a second, fully funded PhD as part of the project 'The Poetics of Social Change in Late Antiquity (250-750AD)'. This project investigates how classical Latin poetry was read and responded to in late antiquity (c. 250 - 750 AD). It is co-led by Paul Roche and Anne Rogerson at the University of Sydney.
We invite proposals for PhD projects that address any of the following:
* The reception of classical Latin poetry in the Latin poetry of late antiquity
* The writing of a full-scale literary commentary on a late Latin poetic text
* The study of a particular classical author's influence across a group of related texts, throughout a specific period, or across the breadth of late antiquity.
* The continuities and transformations of classical genres of poetry in late antiquity
* The reimagining of republican and early imperial Rome in the poetic texts of late antiquity
* The study of the critique of classical Latin poetry or poets, including their imagined lives and careers, in the literature of late antiquity more generally
The supervisory team, Associate Professor Paul Roche and Dr Anne Rogerson, has won an Australian Research Council Discovery Project grant: 'The Vandal Renaissance: Latin Literature in Post-Roman Africa (435-534CE)'. They have significant experience in supervising students working in late antique receptions of Latin poetry, and in assisting early career researchers to develop publications and their academic profile. If the successful candidate's project focusses on the Latin poetry of Vandal North Africa, there is scope for their project to be included within the ARC Discovery Project. The successful candidate would have access to the resources of the Centre for Classical and Near Eastern Studies of Australia.
The applicant approved for this project will be considered for a number of merit-based scholarships that fully support their PhD for a period of up to 3.5 years. These scholarships would provide a stipend allowance of $35,629AUD per annum. Successful international students will also receive a tuition fee scholarship for up to 3.5 years.

Gonville & Caius College intends to elect two Research Fellows in Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences in 2024. 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 2024. 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) £25,964, rising by three annual increments to £28,884 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) £29,161 rising by 3 annual increments to £32,081 if not living in College accommodation. All stipends are subject to an 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 amounting to a minimum of 20,000 words 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 Friday 1 September 2023 and must be completed by Monday 2 October 2023. Shortlisting will take place on Monday 8 January 2024. Those selected will be invited for interview on Friday 12 January 2024, 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 17 January 2024 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.
There are 31 Colleges within the University of Cambridge. Each is an independent institution and elects its own Fellows.

- Postdoc fellowship Roman comedyAug 22Dienstag, 22. August 2023 09:55
Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań (Poland)
Łukasz Berger has kindly asked for this information to be circulated:
We will be offering a two-year postdoc fellowship for a specialist in the metres of Roman comedy. The job is part of the research project "Conversation Analysis in Roman Comedy: Pragmatics, Prosody, and Performance" (2021/43/D/HS2/03113, Polish National Science Centre),
Workplace location: Collegium Maius, ul. Fredry 10, 61-701 Poznań (Poland)
Anticipated job starting date: 01.10.2023 or as soon as practicable thereafter
Monthly salary: approx. 7.700 PLN per month (gross)
Deadline for application: 15.09.2023
Job offer description:
The post-doctoral fellowship includes work on the preparation of an online database of Plautus' and Terence's comedies. The researcher will - under supervision and in collaboration with the principal investigator - annotate the corpus of Roman theatrical speech with a particular focus on metrical and prosodic phenomena. The post-doc fellow will also conduct their own research based on the tools and the methodology developed within the project. During the two years of the fellowship, we expect active dissemination of research results (conferences, publications in renowned journals).
Required research, teaching or mixed experience
* PhD in Classical Philology (in Literary Studies or Linguistics)*;
* a high level of knowledge of Latin meter and measures used in Roman comedy, also confirmed by some high-quality publications (e.g., in international journals, edited volumes).
* high communicative competence in academic and international contexts;
* excellent command of the English language (including in writing);
* self-reliance, good organization of work, ability to work in a team;
* experience in writing scientific publications and preparing conference presentations.
* good computer skills.
About the project:
The texts of Roman comedies by Plautus and Terence (roughly 250-159 BC) are invaluable testimonies for two different social practices: (i) they are play-scripts created by a vibrant theatrical tradition in ancient Rome, while (ii) containing a unique representation of everyday communication in early Latin. This project uses Conversation Analysis - a method of examining talk-in-interaction - to identify the intersections of these two co-existing dimensions. Our premise here is that a conversation-analytic inquiry can help us not only to identify the aspects of the comedy dialogue that mimic real-life conversations in Latin, but it can also give us insights into how the script was designed to be easily managed on stage, e.g. how the performers were able to coordinate and organize their actions during the show. We want to shed new light on some understudied aspects of the Republican-time stagecraft, by offering a first integrated approach to Pragmatics, Prosody, and performance. Arguably, this type of research can provide us with strong insights about the organization of the theatrical talk, identifying the tensions between the naturalistic representation of conversations and the artistically shaped dramatic discourse.

August 2023 20:37
Advertisement of 2 Scholarships for Doctoral Studies (October 2024 - September 2028) in the Doctoral Program: "Languages and Cultures of the Silk Road"
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.
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 Languages and Cultures of the Silk Road<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.
