Scholarships "The Poetics of Social Change in Late Antiquity "
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.
