Dear all,
I am attaching a job advert (also copied in below) for a 2-year
postdoctoral position in gender/feminist theory, funded by the Mellon
Foundation, which will provide support for the Humanities-based Masters
in Women's Studies at Oxford.
Further particulars are avilable from here:
http://www.mod-langs.ox.ac.uk/files/docs/jobs/Mellon%20FPs.pdf
Please spread the word to colleagues, ex-students etc. who may be
interested! Would be good to get this circulating on other subject lists
if you have contacts.
Best wishes,
Georgina
