University College London
Teaching Fellow in Ancient History (The Roman Family) (Part-time)

Department: History Salary Range and Grade: UCL Grade 7 (£35,557-38,594 per annum, pro-rata)

Hours: Part-time (average 7 hours per week, including contact hours, preparation, marking and individual meetings with students) - equivalent to 20% FTE over 9 months)

The Department seeks to appoint a Teaching Fellow to deliver the following module during the 2011-12 session: HIST2101: The Roman Family

This course analyses the different ways in which Romans lived together as families; the strategies they developed to secure the continuation of the family and its property; how families and their constituent members fitted into public life, and how these issues affected individuals of different social backgrounds. The course examines what concepts such as childhood, adolescence or familial affection meant to Romans, what sentiments were invested in the various family-related roles, and how these sentiments differed from our own.

In recent decades the subject of the Roman Family has enjoyed a great deal of attention from ancient historians, whose inspiration has come, to a large extent, from work done by historians of the family in the medieval and early modern periods. It is an aim of this course to make this dependence more explicit and to analyse the merits as well as the problems of a comparative approach.

The course is taught by means of 20 two-hour seminars to two groups of up to 15 students, held over the autumn and spring terms. All teaching is currently scheduled for Thursday afternoons. The course is examined by two assessed essays and a three-hour written examination paper sat in the summer term.

Candidates must have a PhD, or be close to submission, in a relevant field. They must also have experience in undergraduate teaching.

This post is currently funded for 9 months from 19 September 2011 to 15 June 2012.

The two Departments of Philosophy and of Classics were created in1948 as foundation departments of the Faculty of Arts (along with the Departments of English and of French) of the College of the Gold Coast, University of London. Upon independence from colonial rule so too the University of Ghana became an independent institution, with UL affiliation sustained over decades. In 1976 the 2-year MPhil (then called MA) programme in Philosophy was installed, and remains along with the current 3-year MPhil programme in Classics, as we are currently constructing an innovative programme integrating the two disciplines.In 1981 the PhD programme in Philosophy was initiated.

They will receive free university housing. They will also receive office space and enjoy the use of the University of Cincinnati and Hebrew Union College Libraries.

The University of Cincinnati Burnam Classics Library (http://www.libraries.uc.edu/libraries/classics/) is one of the world's premier collections in the field of Classical Studies. Comprising 250,000 volumes and other research materials, the library covers all aspects of the Classics: the languages and literatures, history, civilization, art, and archaeology. Of special value for scholars is both the richness of the collection and its accessibility -- almost any avenue of research in the classics can be pursued deeply and broadly under a single roof. The unusually comprehensive core collection, which is maintained by three professional classicist librarians, is augmented by several special collections such as 15,000 nineteenth century German Programmschriften, extensive holdings in Palaeography, Byzantine and Modern Greek Studies. At neighboring Hebrew Union College, the Klau Library (http://library.cn.huc.edu/), with holdings in excess of 450,000 volumes and other research materials, is rich in Judaica and Near Eastern Studies.

British School at Athens
EARLY CAREER FELLOWSHIPS 2012 & 2013

Applications are invited for Early Career Fellowships at the British School at Athens for up to 3 months in the academic years 2011-12 & 2012-13, for research in any branch of the arts or sciences related to Greece.

The Fellow will be required to submit a report on his/her research and a short general report on their time at the School to the School's Council and Director.

Early Career Fellowships are intended to enable young scholars in post to spend a period of research leave in Greece. They may, for example, be used to enhance a period of sabbatical or research council funded leave. Fellows will be expected to conduct a programme of original research: the appointment carries no further formal obligations, although involvement in the academic life of the School (for example, in the form of a lecture or seminar) is welcomed. The Fellowship may be taken in either the autumn or the spring term.

The Fellow is offered free accommodation in the Hostel and/or at Knossos, and accommodation is also offered to an accompanying spouse/partner, who is most welcome, at a nominal daily rate. Regrettably, children cannot be accommodated. The School will pay one return airfare between London and Athens or Herakleion.

Applicants should submit a covering letter, a Curriculum Vitae and a statement of their proposed programme of research in Greece.

Applications should be sent by e-mail to: The School Administrator, by Monday 3rd January 2011. Further information about the School can be found at www.bsa.ac.uk

The bursaries include an honorarium of up to £9,000 (£1,000 per full calendar month of award). The award can be held for a minimum period of 3 months and a maximum of 9 months.

How to apply - Potential applicants should send their applications by email to the CAS administrator Allison Pearson, by the 28^th February 2011. Shortlisted candidates may be called to interview.

Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach-Stiftung: two to three research scholarships for non-German postgraduates or scholars with PhD

Deadline : 31 December 2010.

Scholarships are for periods ranging between 6 and 24 months. Recipients of the scholarships will receive amounts that correspond with those granted by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (currently about 1.200 € monthly for a postgraduate, 1.800 € monthly for a scholar with a PhD.). The scholarships are for all projects from all disciplines of classical studies that pertain to the general topic of "centre and periphery", but projects in Greek or Latin epigraphy from the Imperial period and late antiquity are especially encouraged. Since Greek and Latin epigraphy has long been an area of concentration in ancient studies at the University of Cologne, it is well equipped to accommodate the sorts of research project that the grants are designed to support. Other research pertaining to the topic "centre and periphery" will concern the ruler cult in the Roman East and the christianisation of Asia Minor during the first six centuries. During the tenure of the scholarships, individuals are required to live and and conduct their research in Cologne and are expected to participate in courses offered in the degree program "Papyrologie, Ephigraphik, Numismatik" as well as in the summer-schools and study-excursions that will be organized. Earliest start of the scholarship is 1 April 2011. It is also possible to apply for a project that will begin at a later date. Comparable announcements will be made in the following years. Applicants should submit the usual materials (curriculum vitae, publications, description of the project, etc.) and an indication regarding the desired starting point of the scholarship and length of the stay in Cologne.

Applications should reach Prof. Dr. W. Ameling, Historisches Seminar I, Albertus Magnus Platz, D-50923 Köln, Germany (), not later than 31 December 2010.
