The Open University has just advertised a permanent lectureship in Classical Studies, we have a preference for someone with expertise in visual/material culture which is why I'm sending it to this list. Please pass the message on to anyone you know who might be interested in applying. With best wishes, Phil Perkins Lectureship in Classical Studies, Faculty of Arts Available from 1 October 2008 (or as soon as possible thereafter), based in Milton Keynes £34,793 – £41,545 You will have a good first degree (or equivalent) in Classics, Classical Studies, Ancient History, Classical Archaeology or a related subject. You will also have, or will be about to obtain, a doctoral degree, and will have a record of published research, or evidence of forthcoming publications, and firm plans for future research. We have a preference for someone with expertise in visual/material culture, but the position is open to people with a research specialism in any area of Classical Studies. You will be expected to teach across a range of areas other than your research specialism, including Greek and/or Latin language. An understanding of the nature of the Faculty’s courses and of the needs of adult learners is desirable. The Faculty has a strong commitment to collective working in teaching and research and we encourage applications from those who want to work in such a culture. Closing date: 23 May 2008.
