Application

The Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Neo-Latin Studies awards fellowships of €1100 per month to researchers at BA, MA or Postdoc level. The fellowships are for 1–6 months. Interested researchers are expected to work on a specific project from the field of Neo-Latin literature and to take residence in Innsbruck during the period of the fellowship. They will take part in the activities of the Institute and discuss their work with its members. A talk at the end of the scholarship period will present the progress/results of the project to a larger audience. Projects with a link to the research programme of the Institute will be given preference, but other projects are also invited. The LBI for Neo-Latin Studies wants to take action for equality. We particularly welcome female applicants and those from an ethnic minority, as these are under-represented at our institute.

Applications, to be sent in English, can be submitted at any time and should be directed by email to bssvpr@arbyngva.yot.np.ng. They should include the following elements:

  • CV
  • a covering letter of max. two pages (the covering letter describes the research project and states the preferred duration as well as the preferred time of the year for the fellowship)
  • list of publications and other scholarly activities
  • writing sample of c. 10–20 pages

Please note that the applications will be surveyed two times a year (15.7. and 15.10.). Applicants will be informed about the outcome of their application within one week after the close of each of these periods. Please, note that the next fellows will be able to start their fellowships in January 2023 at the earliest.
