The Thesaurus Linguae Latinae Fellowship

Description

The Society for Classical Studies invites applications for the Thesaurus Linguae Latinae Fellowship, a one-year Fellowship tenable from July 2026 through June 2027, that will allow an American scholar to conduct lexicographical research at the Thesaurus Linguae Latinae (TLL) Institute in Munich. Fellows at the TLL develop a broadened perspective of the range and complexity of the Latin language and culture from the classical period through the early Middle Ages, contribute signed articles to the Thesaurus, have the opportunity to participate in a collaborative international research project in a collegial environment, and work with senior scholars in the field of Latin lexicography. Applicants must be US citizens or permanent residents. In addition, all applicants must have completed all PhD requirements, including submission of the PhD dissertation, by the date on which they submit their application materials. Applicants who have completed all PhD requirements but have not yet had the degree conferred should provide a letter from their Director of Graduate Studies that states: (a) that all PhD requirements are complete; and (b) the date on which the degree will be conferred. The opportunity to conduct lexicographical research and contribute articles to be published in the lexicon may be of special interest to scholars who are already established in tenure-track positions, as well as those who are just entering the profession. The Fellowship offers valuable experience for scholars in a variety of specialties; although it is not limited to scholars working in Latin philology, applicants should possess a thorough familiarity with and a special interest in the Latin language, as well as advanced competence in Greek. It is anticipated that applicants will already have a reading knowledge of German and will be willing to work toward proficiency in spoken German. Women and members of groups currently underrepresented in Classics are particularly encouraged to apply. Applicants must submit the names of two referees. It will be helpful if at least one letter of recommendation addresses how the Fellowship aligns with the candidate's scholarly trajectory and strengths. Please visit the fellowship's website or contact the Society for Classical Studies for more information.
