The Thesaurus Linguae Latinae Fellowship

Description

The Society for Classical Studies invites applications for a one-year Fellowship, tenable from July 2025 through June 2026, 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. 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 Fellowship offers valuable experience for scholars in a variety of specialties (e.g., Latin language and literature, Roman law, Roman history, the literature of early Christianity); although it is not limited to individuals 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. Applications should include a curriculum vitae, a statement, and the names of two referees, whom the applicant should ask to send supporting letters to the Executive Director of the Society for Classical Studies without further notice. It will be helpful for the application 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 for more information.
