Overview
Applications are invited for two Balzan Postdoctoral Research Fellowships at St John's College Research Centre in Oxford University. The successful applicants will participate in a three-year project "The Balzan Interdisciplinary Research Seminar: Literature as an Object of Knowledge", directed by Professor Terence Cave. The Fellowships are available for a fixed term of three years, since they are funded by a specific grant.
Eligible Candidates
Candidates must recently have completed a doctorate in an area relevant to the project. They will be expected to propose and carry out, during the tenure of the Fellowship, an individual programme of research leading to a monograph (or research publications of equivalent length) in one of the following areas:
(i) historical approaches to literature as an object, vehicle and instrument of knowledge;
(ii) cognitive approaches to literature.
Applications are welcomed not only from candidates in literary studies but also from candidates in philosophy, cognitive psychology or one of the branches of cognitive linguistics, provided that their work engages centrally with questions raised by the project.
Value and how to apply
The stipend will be on a scale of £28,983 - £30,747 per annum. Additional allowances are available. Further particulars, including information about how to apply, may be obtained from the Academic Administrator, St John's College, Oxford OX1 3JD, email: college.office@sjc.ox.ac.uk or may be viewed on the College's website: http://www.sjc.ox.ac.uk
