- 10 PhD fellowships within the training program “From Antiquity to Community: Rethinking Classical Heritage through Citizen Humanities”Apr 15Samstag, 15. April 2023 12:57
AntCom Call for applications
Are you interested in cultural heritage, reception studies and/or the new frontiers of classics? Are you passionate about cutting-edge research but you also want to boost your skills by learning about new approaches and technologies? We might have something for you.
AntCom network publishes a call for 10 PhD fellowships within the training program “From Antiquity to Community: Rethinking Classical Heritage through Citizen Humanities”. The positions are funded by the European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under the Marie Sktodowska-Curie Action, Grant Agreement 101073543.
AntCom training and research programme in a nutshell
What is the role of classical heritage in building modern, plural, diverse European identities? To answer this question the consortium “From Antiquity to Community: Rethinking Classical Heritage through Citizen Humanities” (AntCom) will train a new generation of 10 highly skilled cultural heritage researchers allowing them to fully engage in the digital transition as well as to address its professional and societal challenges.
AntCom will create a team of early-stage researchers equipped to design, implement and manage open-science projects, building on advanced techniques of digitization and data collection. AntCom looks at both tangible and intangible classical heritage in Europe within three main areas: 1. Manuscript heritage; 2. Linguistic heritage; 3. Ritual and narrative heritage. As a consortium of 4 universities – University of Southern Denmark, University of Verona, University of Salento, and University of Santiago de Compostela – and 8 associated partners AntCom will provide fellows with the skills and training to lead heritage research in Europe and to be employable in academia, curatorial institutions, science communication, industrial imaging and tourism.
AntCom offers the first structured training program in Citizen Science for the humanities (Citizen Humanities). It prioritises both open science and innovative curatorial techniques (Multi- and Hyperspectral Imaging) to encourage cooperation between researchers and communities. Professionals trained by AntCom will have the skills to bring heritage back to communities and build more complete, sustainable narratives and memory practices about Europe’s classical past. AntCom builds on a high-level, integrated cooperation between the humanities and STEM, inspired by the notion that both areas equally provide skills suitable to meet current needs of the job market and to create a better, more resilient society.
Applications will be accepted from 24/02/2023 until 24/04/2023 at 12:00 pm (Central European Time).

https://antcom.eu/ - 3 doctoral fellowshipsApr 12Mittwoch, 12. April 2023 09:30
Dear all,
Please find below information and links concerning three doctoral fellowships in Ancient History, Classical Philology, and Biblical Studies as part of the project STASTA (STAtes of STAndardization) at the University of Louvain (Louvain-la-Neuve).
The collaborative project STASTA aims to be the first comparative and diachronic study of the relationship between the standardisation of market tools (weights, measures, coinage), and interrelated developments in literary culture, politics, and religious ideology in the Greco-Roman world from the 4th century BCE to the 4th century CE. The major hypothesis of STASTA is that the standardisation of market tools, ubiquitous in ancient lived environments, played a major role in, and can be seen reflected in, developments in culture, politics, and literature of the period. In part, STASTA aims to assess the extent to which standardisation of market tools is a way by which populations (often heterogeneous) are made more "legible" to the state (Scott 1998)-and sometimes aim to disrupt such legibility.
While this project is essentially comparative and collaborative, reaching across linguistic, regional, chronological, and disciplinary boundaries, it includes three specific corpora, each the province of a doctoral project by the four STASTA promoters:
According to UCLouvain doctoral regulations, the thesis must be completed in four years on a full-time basis. Within the STASTA project, the first two years of funding are guaranteed. Funding may be renewed for a further two years if the successful candidate fulfils the conditions set out in the doctoral regulations (passing the confirmation test) and if the funding sources are renewed.
Consortium: prof. Charles Doyen, prof. Geert Van Oyen, prof. Aaron Kachuck, prof. Matthieu Richelle.

Yours very truly,
Aaron Kachuck

Doctoral fellowship (full-time; 24 months, renewable once) in Latin Literature (UCLouvain, Belgium).
Application deadline: May 15, 2022
Tasks and duties: Completion of a doctoral dissertation involving doctoral training, research stays abroad, participation in team seminars, participation in the organisation of an international conference.
Project description: This doctoral dissertation is part of the STASTA project, which aims to study comparatively and diachronically the relationship between the standardisation of market tools (weights, measures, coinage), and interrelated developments in literary culture, politics, and religious ideology in the Greco-Roman world from the 4th century BCE to the 4th century CE. More specifically, the doctoral dissertation will study how market tools-as symbols of authority whose centralisation and standardisation are always also sites of contention-served also as tools for thought for authors of Latin literature from the Republic to the Empire, with a focus on literature of the age of Augustus, when the standardisation of coinage took hold, the dream of standardising weights and measures across the empire began to put out roots. What can Latin literature tell us about states of standardisation in the early Roman empire? What, in turn, can states of standardisation tell us about literature-its metaphors, its structures, its goals? Concretely, this dissertation will focus on Latin textual archives (especially, but not exclusively, poetic) of the 1st centuries BCE and CE to study and compile the wide diffusion of market tools as terms, objects, and as metaphors; as key details or major themes in textual archives; and as aspects in the ideological construction of, or opposition to, new forms of political culture. The resulting dissertation will contribute principally to ancient literary studies, but also to the social, political, and cultural history of antiquity. The dissertation may be written in either English or in French.
Profile: The successful candidate will hold a Master's degree in Classical Philology (or equivalent) at the time of taking up the position; for questions concerning the equivalence of different degrees, please feel free to be in touch with the promotor (Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt!

- 2 doctoral researchers for the project "A graph-based computational approach to Byzantine paratexts"Mrz 29Mittwoch, 29. März 2023 16:37
Ghent University
Departments of Linguistics, Literary Studies, and History
The Ghent University Departments of Linguistics, Literary Studies, and History are hiring
2 doctoral researchers for the GOA-project "Interconnected texts. A graph-based computational approach to Byzantine paratexts as nodes between textual transmission and cultural and linguistic developments"
Description of the research project
The research team of the GOA (Concerted Research Action) project "Interconnected texts" at Ghent University is inviting applications for two PhD fellowships. The project is based upon the corpus of Byzantine book epigrams available at https://www.dbbe.ugent.be/. It aims to investigate book epigrams as texts at the threshold between the material and the textual, with a focus on their formulaic nature, and to explore the possibilities of innovative technologies to pursue multifaceted humanities research. The project brings together linguistic, literary, historical and computational experts.
Description of the research positions
PhD Fellowship 1: Linguistics
The first PhD candidate will be embedded within the work package 'Linguistics', the main aim of which is to better understand formulaic phraseology in the DBBE corpus. More specifically, the PhD candidate will study the different types of formulaic patterns that occur in the corpus, create a typology of the deviations of standard patterns that can be found, and situate the use of formulae in its broader literary and socio-cultural context, making a comparison with other Byzantine and/or Ancient Greek corpora. In order to answer these research questions, the PhD candidate will apply insights from linguistic disciplines such as historical sociolinguistics and cognitive linguistics - under the guidance of the main supervisor, Klaas Bentein - and work closely together with other PhD students and team members who are applying digital methods to the corpus and its metadata (natural language processing, graph-based data exploitation and analysis). The research is expected to lead to a PhD thesis, either in the form of a monograph or a collection of single- or co-authored articles and chapters. Next to the PhD thesis, the candidate will be expected to engage in a limited amount of teaching and dissemination activities that are connected to the research.
PhD Fellowship 2: Manuscript culture
This PhD candidate will be engaged in the Work Package 'Manuscript Culture'. This WP will investigate the multiple connections that book epigrams establish between the material production of texts and their intellectual, spiritual and/or social significance in Byzantine society. Research questions involve various reading strategies that book epigrams propose for specific texts, as well as discourses of community building present in these epigrams. The research is situated at the intersection of Byzantine Studies, Palaeography and Manuscript Studies, and Digital Humanities.
The PhD student will perform research in preparation of a doctoral dissertation on a specific innovative theme within this general framework. The dissertation will be supervised by Floris Bernard (Medieval Greek literature) and Els De Paermentier (Medieval history and manuscript studies). The candidate will make extensive use of the Database of Byzantine Book Epigrams, working closely together with the other members of the research team. The student will regularly exchange intermediary results and help evaluate the computational tools developed within the project. The candidate will disseminate the research results in (partly co-authored) publications, implement the research in (limited) teaching duties, and create public awareness of the Greek manuscript heritage.
Job profile
* At the time of appointment, you hold an MA degree (or equivalent) in the field of Classics, History, and/or Byzantine Studies, or in a related discipline;
* You have a good knowledge of ancient and/or Byzantine Greek;
* You have good oral and written communication skills in scientific English;
* You have experience in working with digital resources in the field of Humanities;
* You are able to take on responsibilities, work independently but also as part of an interdisciplinary research team;
* You are able to develop new research ideas and are not afraid to be critical about your own work;
* You are highly motivated, hardworking, flexible, able to face complex issues and you have an appropriate problem-solving attitude;
* You have demonstrated skills in working with medieval manuscripts, and you are familiar with the disciplines of paleography and codicology (necessary for PhD2; recommended for PhD1);
* You have an interest and acquaintance with corpus linguistics and/or other linguistics disciplines such as historical sociolinguistics and cognitive linguistics (only applies to PhD1).
Conditions of employment
For each of both positions, we offer a full-time, fixed-term appointment for initially 1 year, renewable after positive evaluation up to 4 years. You will work in an exciting multi-disciplinary international research environment, consisting of PhD students, postdocs and professors. Aside from an internationally very competitive monthly salary, you will enjoy all the staff benefits of Ghent University staff.
Both fellowships are expected to start on 1 September 2023 or soon thereafter.
How to apply
To apply, send your full application before 30 April 2023 to Prof. Dr. Klaas Bentein (PhD Fellowship 1) or Prof. Dr. Floris Bernard (PhD Fellowship 2). Your application includes the following documents, which you are required to be sent as pdfs named according to the template FAMILYNAME_FILETYPE:
* A motivation letter in English;
* A curriculum vitae;
* Two recommendation letters, to be sent separately by the referees;
* A relevant piece of academic writing (MA thesis, BA thesis, research essay, etc.);
* A copy of your Master's diploma or a statement that indicates the timeline to obtain one.
After an initial screening, interviews will take place (online if needed) in the week of May 15, 2023.
