Cornell's Post-Doc Fellowships in Humanities

Ace! NewsFlash

Two-Year Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowships at Cornell University

The Society for the Humanities will sponsor two postdoctoral teaching-research fellowships in the humanities, each awarded for the two-year period beginning July 2010. Each fellowship offers a stipend of $45,000/year. While in residence at Cornell, Mellon Fellows hold department affiliations and have limited teaching duties and the opportunity for scholarly work. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowships are available in two areas of specialization. The Department of English invites applications from those working on transatlantic literature in English in the 18th and 19th century. Topics of study may include, but are not limited to, colonialism, slavery, tourism, translation, war and diplomacy, sea and trade narratives, immigration, cosmopolitanism, and a multinational approach eo the development of literary genres. The Department of Asian Studies invites applications from scholars working in Modern Korean Studies, with a special preference for candidates who work at the intersection of Media Studies and Literature.
