Two 2-year Postdoctoral researchers at the Faculty of Humanities (UvA)

The Faculty of Humanities has a vacancy for two postdoctoral researchers in the field of Digital Humanities. (fulltime, 38 hours/week, for a period of two years, starting on 1 March 2012 at the latest).

Applicants should be interested in the development and application of digital methods in the humanities. Digital research corpora of literature, art, music and language are changing the humanities in a spectacular way, leading to new questions that seemed unanswerable until very recently. The Digital Humanities or e-Humanities transcend the individual humanities disciplines, and the applicant will need to be at home in more than one discipline. We particularly welcome applications that fit within the two project themes "Corpus Creation and Games" and "Literary Quality".

Vacancy number W11-208. Applications should be submitted before Monday November 28th 2011. For more information about these positions, see http://www.uva.nl/vacatures/vacatures.cfm/447DAFE1-1098-4F19-9D7E6A4EDE4B7FEE or contact rens.bod at uva.nl.
