MARGO TYTUS VISITING SCHOLARS PROGRAM
The University of Cincinnati Classics Department is
pleased to announce the Margo Tytus Visiting Scholars Program. Tytus
Fellows, in the fields of philology, history and archaeology, who
will ordinarily be at least 5 years beyond receipt of the Ph. D.,
will come to Cincinnati for a minimum of one month and a maximum of
nine during the regular academic year (October 1 to May 30). Tytus
Fellows will receive a monthly stipend of $1000 plus housing and a
travel allowance. They will also receive office space and enjoy the
use of the University of Cincinnati and Hebrew Union College
Libraries. While at Cincinnati Tytus Fellows will be free to pursue
their own research.
The University of Cincinnati Burnham Classics Library is one
of the world's premier collections in the field of Classical Studies.
Comprising 165,000 volumes, the library covers all aspects of the
Classics: thelanguages and literatures, history, civilization, art,
andarchaeology. 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
singleroof. 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
Programschriften , extensive holdings in Palaeography, Byzantine
and Modern Greek Studies. At neighboring Hebrew Union College, the
Klau Library, with holdings in excess of 400,000 volumes, is rich
in Judaica and Near Eastern Studies.
Application Deadline: January 1.
