        Subject: PhD studentships in Literary Studies and Digital Humanities at the University of Antwerp

Dear colleagues,

The University of Antwerp is recruiting for two full-time PhD
studentships in Literary Studies and Digital Humanities.

The Centre for Manuscript Genetics, part of ACDC (the Antwerp Centre for
Digital humanities and literary Criticism), builds on a long tradition
of literary research at the University of Antwerp while taking the
field’s more recent developments into account by applying digital tools
and methodologies to humanities research. ACDC hosts the Beckett Digital
Manuscript Project (www.beckettarchive.org , which was recently awarded
the /MLA Prize for a Bibliography, Archive, or Digital Project in 2019/.

A team of PhDs and postdocs at the Centre will collaborate in the
creation, launch and curation of a digital scholarly edition of James
Joyce’s library and unpublished correspondence. They will interrelate
this material to Joyce’s biography and oeuvre. The PhD candidates will
write dissertations in the area of literary studies and DH.

Full details are available here
(https://www.uantwerpen.be/en/jobs/vacancies/ap/2019bapdocproex220/) on
the University of Antwerp jobs website.

Applications should be made online before the closing date of *Sunday 11
August 2019* (Central European Time) and should include a CV and
cover letter.

For questions about the positions, please contact Prof Dirk Van Hulle,
dirk.vanhulle@uantwerpen.be , or Dr Ronan Crowley,
ronan.crowley@uantwerpen.be

Best,
Ronan.
