2006 Brill Fellowship at the Scaliger Institute of Leiden University Library
Brill Academic Publishers, the oldest scholarly publishing house in The Netherlands based in Leiden, is sponsoring the Scaliger Institute for a three-year period. This contribution provides an opportunity for one or two fellows to come to Leiden University Library each year in order to do research in the library’s rich Special Collections. The Brill fellowship is intended for a minimum period of three months.
The prospective fellow must be involved in one of the following main subject areas of Brill Academic Publishers: Middle East, Asian and Islamic Studies; Medieval and Early Modern Studies; Biblical and Religious Studies; Bibliography; Classical Studies. Fellowship applications will be submitted to a board consisting of the director of the Scaliger Institute, a member of the Scientific Board and a representative of Brill Academic Publishers.
The Brill fellow is expected to contribute to the activities of the Scaliger Institute and to give a public lecture. When the occasion arises, the lecture will be published by Brill Academic Publishers in association with the Scaliger Institute.
Please inform your colleagues about this fellowship.
