The ERC Starting Grant 'SCRIBEMUS - Scribes of Musical Cultures. Decoding Early Technologies of Music Writing in Latin Europe c. 900-1100' (PI Prof. Giovanni Varelli) aims to reconstruct and understand the phenomena underlying the first large-scale diffusion of neumatic notation in 10th- and 11th-century Europe, as well as to study the historical (political and ecclesiastical) dynamics that may have favoured its spreading. The Research Fellows will be affiliated to the Department of Musicology and Cultural Heritage of the University of Pavia.
A- 1-year Research Fellowship in Digital Humanities for Musicology (deadline 15 February 2024).
The Research Fellowship will have the following objectives: 1) the creation of an online database of sources with musical notation from the 10th and 11th centuries; 2) the creation of the pilot version of a digital online platform for the study of medieval manuscript palimpsests; 3) the editing of digital images for the recovery of information from palimpsest manuscripts; 4) the publication of an article in a scientific journal (class A) to be delivered by the end of the Fellowship.

B - 1-year Research Fellowship in Musicology/Musical Palaeography (deadline 15 February 2024).
The Research Fellowship will have the following objectives: 1) the study of the oldest evidence for music scripts and notations from northern Italy, especially, from the 10th century; 2) the identification of ecclesiastical networks that may have favoured the diffusion of those music scripts; 3) the publication of an article in a journal (class A) to be delivered before the end of the Fellowship. (Note that this is the only position on the project conceived with a specific focus on a geographical area in order to support collaborative research on the PI’s research interests; otherwise SCRIBEMUS will not deal exclusively with Italian notations.)

Flexible working arrangements may be discussed with the PI. Please note that, while excellent written and spoken English is essential, advanced knowledge of Italian is not strictly required. (For Job A, the Fellow’s availability to achieve proficiency in the Italian language would be desirable but not essential). International candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
