Balliol College invites applications for an 8-hour Stipendiary Lectureship in Latin Literature commencing October 2010 for either one or two academic years (length of tenure should have been established by the time of appointment). The lecturer will be asked to teach up to 8 hours of tutorials per week. The College hopes to appoint a Latinist who would be able to teach the Latin Literature of the 1st century B.C. paper for Greats (Finals) and also undertake Latin literature and language teaching for Classics Mods (Virgil’s Aeneid, and Texts and Contexts: options including Petronius, Catullus, Cicero): see University Regulations at www.classics.ox.ac.uk for details. The lecturer should also be able to teach either or both of the Ovid or Latin Didactic Poetry papers for Greats. The lecturer will be expected to assist with the administration of Classics at Balliol, including undergraduate admissions, and with the pastoral care of students. The annual stipend payable is currently £16,182. The lecturer will have certain Senior Common Room rights and the use of a teaching room in College. Applications containing a CV, a statement of research and teaching experience and the names of two referees should be sent to the Academic Administrator, Balliol College, Oxford, OX1 3BJ ([log in to unmask]), by Monday 19th April. Candidates should ask their referees to write directly to the Academic Administrator by that date; it would be helpful if at least one referee could comment on the candidate’s teaching experience and abilities. It is expected that interviews will be held in the week beginning 3rd. May (2nd Week of term).
