The Arts of Melancholy: Post Doctoral Fellowship in the Humanities at Haverford College, 2017-2019 The John B. Hurford ’60 Center for the Arts and Humanities of Haverford College invites applications for a two-year Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Humanities to begin Fall 2017 (see http://www.haverford.edu/HHC/mellon_post-doctoral_program/index.php for details). The Hurford Center for the Arts and Humanities (HCAH) seeks a scholar interested in the history, nature, and artistic representation of melancholia. Candidates should have broad theoretical and interdisciplinary interests.
In the second year, the Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow will organize and present a spring symposium related to his or her scholarly field funded by the Hurford Center. During each of the four semesters at Haverford College, the Mellon Fellow will teach one course at the introductory/intermediate or advanced level and engage a diverse student body. Applicants should submit two brief course proposals related to their area of interest, one for a broad-based introductory course and the other for a more specialized or advanced course. Applicants are asked to submit a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, two course proposals, and a writing sample of no more than 25 pages, and should arrange to have three confidential letters of recommendation submitted via Interfolio at apply.interfolio.com/38450. Candidates who earned their Ph.D. as early as 2012 or who have completed the requirements for the Ph.D. by the application deadline of January 9, 2017 are eligible to apply. The position will begin in fall 2017. Questions can be directed to Kerry Nelson ([email protected]) John B.
