      Wissenschaftliche Reflexionsräume für Kultur- und Sozialwissenschaften“

      Start-up grant for projects
      For the 2024/25 winter semester, the KU Research Training Group "Dialogkulturen.
      Wissenschaftliche Reflexionsräume für Kultur- und Sozialwissenschaften" of the Catholic
      University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt is awarding a grant to provide start-up funding for
      research projects to early-career researchers who focus on aspects of dialog cultures and
      have a topic-related connection to the research priorities of the research training group (see:
      https://www.ku.de/dialogkulturen/ziele-und-foerderung).
      Applications can be submitted to the subject areas that are involved in the research training
      group: Philosophy of Education, Modern German Literary Studies, German Linguistics,
      Classical Archaeology, Classical Philology, Art History, Latin American History, Medieval
      History, Modern German Linguistics, Political Education, Romance Literary Studies and
      Sociology.
      The research grant is aimed specifically at researchers who are just about to transition to the
      next qualification level, in particular from the doctoral to the early post-doc phase. The grant is
      intended to provide financial support for the researcher in the preparation and drafting of a
      third-party funding application with the aim of acquiring an own position with relevant funding
      bodies. The primary aim of the grant is therefore to give qualified early-career researchers an
      opportunity for realizing an original research idea and thus to further develop their own
      scientific career. It is also possible to prepare a combined or network application together with
      other parties. Cooperation with the KU, in particular with the members of the research training
      group, is desired.
      Funding is provided for a period of six months; a one-time extension for a further six months
      is possible in case of outstanding performance. The selected grant beneficiary will receive a
      lump sum grant amount of € 2,500 per month. In addition to financial support, the grant
      beneficiaries are also advised on the planning and development of their research projects and
      supported in applying for third-party funding. There is also the opportunity to participate in
      events organized by the "Dialogkulturen" research training group and to be involved in its  activities.
      Application requirements include a completed doctorate with above-average results and
      commitment to applying for third-party funding for their own research project on aspects of
      dialog cultures, either independently or in collaboration with others. The application documents
      should include:
      1. Cover letter/letter of motivation (no longer than 2 pages)
      2. Fully completed application form
      3. Short outline of planned research project (no longer than 6 pages) including information
      on possible funding institutions to which an application will be submitted, as well as a timeline
      and work plan for the funding period
      4. Résumé in table form including list of publications to date
      5. Copy of the doctoral certificate
      Applications can be submitted in German or English to the Research Training Group
      "Dialogkulturen" by August 15, 2024. Please combine all application documents in one PDF
      document and send it to the coordination office of the group (forschungskolleg-

      compatibility of the research topic to the research group's priorities, the originality and quality
      of the research project and previous research achievements. Applicants will be informed of the
      decision in a timely manner. Funding can be provided from October 1, 2024, at the earliest.

      Two postdoctoral fellowships (f/m/d)

      Mittwoch, 03. Juli 2024 15:58

       

      The Classics Department of Heidelberg University is inviting applications for two three-year postdoctoral fellowships to commence on December 1, 2024.

       

      Your tasks:

      The postdoctoral fellows will be part of a Leibniz research group on ancient aesthetics under the direction of Jonas Grethlein. The group will focus on explicit and implicit aesthetic reflections in a wide range of literary genres and non-textual media from the Archaic age to the Imperial era. While all topics in this field are welcome, special interest will be given to projects that explore one of the following three themes:

      1. a) the relation of aesthetics with ethics: inquiries into the ethical dimension of aesthetics and its challenges to the modern ideal of aesthetic autonomy.
      2. b) scale: inquiries into size, length and other measurements that at first glance appear to be simple and objective characteristics of texts and works of art, but upon closer inspection turn out to be highly charged.
      3. c) media: inquiries into the manifold relations between and entanglements of various media of representation such as text, performance, image, sculpture and dance.

      Applicants need to have a PhD or equivalent degree in Classics.

       

      We offer:

      The fellows will pursue their own research project and participate in the intellectual life of the Heidelberg Classics department. The salary will be based on TV-L E13. The fellowships are limited to three years. Heidelberg University stands for equal opportunities and diversity. Qualified female candidates are especially invited to apply. Persons with severe disabilities will be given preference if they are equally qualified. Information on job advertisements and the collection of personal data is available at www.uni-heidelberg.de/en/job-market.

      Applications should include a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, a writing sample (either an article or a dissertation chapter), an abstract of the research project (2-4 pages) and two letters of reference. Please send the material as a pdf to Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt! Zur Anzeige muss JavaScript eingeschaltet sein. by September 15. If you have any questions about the project, please contact Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt! Zur Anzeige muss JavaScript eingeschaltet sein..

      4 PhD Fellowships at Ghent University (History of Political Thought in the Mediterranean World during Late Antiquity/the First Millennium).

      Mittwoch, 03. Juli 2024 10:52

       
      The Ghent Centre for Late Antiquity, Ghent University (https://www.gcla.ugent.be/) is offering four PhD fellowships as part of the ERC Advanced Grant Project New Polities. Political Thought in the First Millennium, directed by Prof. P. Van Nuffelen.
      YOUR JOB
      • The New Polities project studies political thought in Late Antiquity (ca. 300-900 AD). Rather than considering this as the time when the ancient city-state gave way to monarchy and when rationality became subordinate to religious texts, the project argues that we see in Late Antiquity a wide range of new religious and political communities that adopted and modified classical ideas and thus developed a rich political thought. By studying sources in other languages than just Latin and Greek, New Polities will uncover neglected traditions of political thought from the first millennium AD, from the Roman Empire to the Abbasids, Byzantines and Carolingians.
      • The four PhD students will write a doctoral dissertation on a topic related to the project’s aims, including (but not limited to) concepts of social relations, kingship, utopias, virtue, economic thought and the relation between society and nature. Their topic should relate to sources in Greek, Latin, Syriac, Armenian, and/or Georgian.
      • You contribute to a database of commented passages on first millennium political thought.
      • You participate in, and co-organize, team meetings, workshops and conferences.
       
      Job profile
      • You hold (or will hold one by the starting date) a Master’s degree in a relevant field, including (but not limited to) Classics & Ancient History, History, Theology and Religious Studies, Philosophy, and Oriental Studies.
      • You have a very good knowledge of at least one of the relevant languages (Greek, Latin, Syriac, Armenian or Georgian). Knowledge of two or more languages and cultures, or a willingness to acquire additional languages (including Hebrew, Persian and Arabic), is an advantage.
      • You have an interest in working across different traditions and in comparative research.
      • You have an interest in engaging with other disciplines, in particular philosophy and the history of political thought.
      • Knowledge of Digital Humanities, or a willingness to acquire this, is an advantage.
      • Whilst capable of doing independent work, you are willing to work in a team.
      • You have good organizational skills.
       
      WHAT WE CAN OFFER YOU
      • We offer a full-time position as a doctoral fellow, consisting of an initial period of 12 months, which, after a positive evaluation, will be extended to a total maximum of 48 months.
      • Your contract will start on 1/3/2025 at the earliest and on 1/10/2025 at the latest.
      • The fellowship amount is around 2500 euro/month. It is equal to 100% of the net salary of an AAP member in equal family circumstances. The individual fellowship amount is determined by the Department of Personnel and Organization based on family status and seniority. A grant that meets the conditions and criteria of the regulations for doctoral fellowships is considered free of personal income tax. Click here for more information about our salary scales
      • All Ghent University staff members enjoy a number of benefits, such as a wide range of training and education opportunities, 36 days of holiday leave (on an annual basis for a full-time job) supplemented by annual fixed bridge days, bicycle allowance and eco vouchers. Click here for a complete overview of all the staff benefits (in Dutch).

      Send your CV, a copy of your diploma (if already in your possession), a motivation letter and a 500 word abstract of a possible PhD topic to Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt! Zur Anzeige muss JavaScript eingeschaltet sein. before 1 October 2024.

      Postdoctoral Fellow: Classics Pedagogy and Research

      Freitag, 12. April 2024 11:09

      Application Deadline: 2024-04-22

      In collaboration with the department of the Classics at Harvard, The Harvard Center for Hellenic Studies, Washington, DC, is pleased to announce a one-year postdoctoral fellowship on the theme of "Classics pedagogy for access and diversity", with the possibility of renewal for a second year. The position is open to applicants in any field of Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies who received their Ph.D. degree no earlier than May 1st 2021. This is a combined research and teaching postdoctoral fellowship. A demonstrated strong commitment to teaching is crucial, as is the ability to capture the interest of a diverse student body. We particularly seek applicants who have shown a commitment to Greek and Latin pedagogy and to making the discipline of Classics accessible to students from under-represented backgrounds. Familiarity and critical engagement with scholarship on inclusive pedagogy, classical reception studies, academic writing, and professional development are highly desirable. Candidates should demonstrate some familiarity with high school and college education in the U.S.

      The appointment is expected to begin on June 1st, 2024. This position entails a commitment to serve as the academic program director for the "Scholars in Training" summer program in the department of the Classics at Harvard, which is now entering its fourth year. This role includes coordinating the program, leading educational workshops and reading groups, supporting instructors, and mentoring students. The program runs for seven weeks, from mid-June to the first week of August. The fellow will receive an additional stipend to cover accommodation and cost of living expenses in Cambridge, MA, for the duration of the summer program and will also have access to an office in the Classics department while directing the program. It may also be possible to teach ancient Greek or Latin for Harvard's summer school, with an additional salary paid by the Harvard Summer School. Planning for the summer school will entail ca. 35 hours of administrative work between the months of November and May in coordination with the Department of the Classics at Harvard. In the Fall and Spring semesters, the fellow will be in residence at the CHS in Washington and will pursue their own research.

      Fellowships include a salary, housing at the CHS, and subsidized health insurance. The starting salary will be $67,600 with additional support (up to $4,000) for professional travel and other research expenses. The CHS will also assist with the fellow's travel expenses to and from Washington. The fellow will have full access to the resources of the Harvard library system for the duration of the fellowship.

      Harvard views equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging as the pathway to achieving inclusive excellence and fostering a campus culture where everyone can thrive. We strive to create a community that draws upon the widest possible pool of talent to unify excellence and diversity while fully embracing individuals from varied backgrounds, cultures, races, identities, life experiences, perspectives, beliefs, and values.
