Applications are now open for the following Warburg funded research fellowships.
The Warburg Institute is one of the world’s leading centres for studying the interaction of ideas, images and society. It is dedicated to the survival and transmission of culture across time and space, with special emphasis on the afterlife of antiquity. Its open-stack Library, Photographic Collection and Archive serve as an engine for interdisciplinary research, postgraduate teaching and a prestigious events and publication programme. Situated in the heart of the Bloomsbury Knowledge Quarter, the Warburg offers scholars the opportunity to engage with academics not only within the institute, but also at local universities, museum and galleries and research institutes.
The following fellowship applications are open:
Ouseley short-term fellowship: The aim of this award is to provide financial support towards living and subsistence costs in London to enable scholars to undertake a period research on the Arabic, Persian, Hindustani and other Oriental languages in this country.
The fellowship is intended for scholars at any stage of their post-doctoral career. All Fellows will be expected to carry out original research on the topic for which they have been awarded their fellowship. Applications will not be accepted from candidates proposing to revise their doctoral dissertation for publication.
E H Gombrich short-term fellowship: This fellowship is intended for junior research fellows only. Applicants must have been awarded their PhD within the preceding five years, i.e after 1 October 2015.
Prospective fellows can apply either to carry out original research in the field of Russian culture, or propose to carry out additional research required to develop their PhD theses (if it is in the field of Russian culture) into a book and prepare it for publication.
Frances A Yates Long-term Fellowship: Yates Fellowships are intended for scholars at any stage of their post-doctoral career. They are designed to enable scholars to carry out research in and on the Warburg’s Collections. Proposed projects should be unrelated to the doctoral dissertation of the applicants.
