CAUCASUS SCHOLARSHIP
We are very pleased to announce that, thanks to a generous donation, the Department of Russian and Slavonic Studies also offers a fully-funded PhD scholarship dedicated to the
 folklore and literature of the Caucasus region. Proposals may pertain to the
 folklore and literature itself, the history of scholarship on the question, and 
the role they have played in the formation of social and cultural identity.
Fluency in Russian language is essential, and knowledge of one Caucasian language would be an advantage.
The scholarship includes all University fees, a grant for living expenses and funds for approved research expenses.
For enquiries and expressions of interest please contact Professor Susan Reid <[log in to unmask]>
In the first round of selection we require a CV, 400-word research proposal, and a covering letter explaining your interest. These should reach Professor Reid by 24 January 2011.
