Full-Time Lecturer in Latin/Classics
Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, USA
The Department of Classics at Case Western Reserve University invites
applications for a Full-Time Lecturer in Latin/Classics to commence in
August of 2023 for a period of one year, with a possibility of renewal
for an additional year. Conferral of Ph.D. by September of 2023 is
preferred. The successful candidate will teach 6 courses total (3 per
semester), including two upper-level Latin courses, The Ancient
Mediterranean in Film (comprising Greece, Rome, The Ancient Near East
and Egypt), and Roman Civilization. The other two courses would ideally
be from among Latin Literature in English translation, Roman History,
Ancient Near East and Egyptian Religion, The Ancient World, or Ancient
Warfare (the last two comprising Greece, Rome, The Ancient Near East
and Egypt). No service will be expected.
The CWRU Classics Department is primarily an undergraduate program,
with majors and minors in Classical Philology, Classical Civilization,
and The Ancient Near East and Egypt. Class sizes in the languages are
small and the students are generally both able and motivated. We also
have a Graduate Certificate program (Postbac), and an MA Program. We
also are a part of the voluminous OhioLINK library system.
The department comprises an interdisciplinary group of colleagues, all
of whom maintain significant connections with other areas of the
humanities with some holding secondary appointments. Recently the
department's focus has expanded to encompass the civilizations of the
Ancient Near East and Egypt. In keeping with the department's current
profile, then, we seek a versatile and well-rounded applicant who would
be comfortable teaching more general courses on the Ancient
Mediterranean World.
The campus of CWRU sits in the cultural center of Cleveland known as
the "University Circle", which is home to The Cleveland Museum of
Art, The Cleveland Museum of Natural History, The Cleveland Botanical
Garden, The Western Reserve Historical Society, The Cleveland
Orchestra, and The Cleveland Institute of Music. Downtown is just
fifteen minutes away, with a vibrant Theater District, the Rock-n-Roll
Hall of Fame, the Great Lakes Science Center, Ohio City (with many
small breweries and a fresh produce market), and the homes of the
Cavaliers, Guardians, and Browns. Two sandy beaches on Lake Erie are
nearby, one just west of downtown, and one 30 minutes east, and the
city is ringed by an impressive number of parks for hiking and outdoor
activities, including Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
Applications consisting of a letter of application that addresses
qualifications for this teaching position, a curriculum vitae
(including courses taught), a one-page diversity statement that
explains how diversity, equity, and inclusion inform your past and/or
future teaching and professional experience, and three letters of
