Closing date: 17/10/2022
Salary: Between £38,109 - £45,953 per annum

Candidates must have a PhD in hand by the start of the project, in a field relevant to its remit (such as Italian Studies, Renaissance Studies, History, Classics).

The successful candidate will be part of a research team assisting Dr Miglietti in establishing a database of prose self-translations printed in Italy and France between 1465 and 1700.

Fully-funded PhD studentship (Warburg Institute) on Leverhulmefunded project "Writing Bilingually, 1465-1700”

As part of the Leverhulme-funded project ‘Writing Bilingually, 1465-1700: Self-Translated Books in Italy and France’, there is one full-time PhD studentship available from 4 January 2023 at the Warburg Institute in London.

The studentship carries a residency requirement and distance learning options are not available.

Funding is available for research-related travel during the studentship. The student will also participate in other activities attached to the research project, including three international conferences, and will collaborate with the rest of the team on the production of key research outputs (an online database, an annotated catalogue of printed self-translations, and an anthology of primary sources in translation).
