Fellowship for Scholars: Study of Medieval Through Modern Greece, Zoë Sarbanes Pappas Fellowship

[ASCSA Programs]

ZOË SARBANES PAPPAS SENIOR FELLOWSHIP IN THE STUDY OF MEDIEVAL THROUGH MODERN GREECE

AT THE GENNADIUS LIBRARY

Deadline: January 31, 2026

Duration: Academic year, early September 2026 to end of May 2027.

Eligibility: An established scholar working in any area related to the study of Greece in the Medieval through Modern periods for a project that benefits from the use of the Gennadius Library, and/or School Archives, or other related sources. Special collections, rare books, archives, and research holdings of 150,000 titles create a comprehensive resource for the history of Greece through the ages. Applicants should hold the rank of Associate Professor (or equivalent) or higher and possess a significant record of publication and teaching. Open to all nationalities and any university.

Terms: Using the resources and collections of the Gennadius Library and the School, the Zoë Sarbanes Pappas Senior Fellow shall pursue research on a project that enriches the academic program of the School. Sarbanes Pappas fellows participate in the academic life of the Gennadius Library and the School in a variety of ways, including: mentoring Gennadius Library fellows, participating in the academic programming of the Gennadius Library, offering occasional seminar presentations (on topics and materials related to the scholar's research), and organizing a colloquium, an exhibition, or some other activity in the subject of their expertise. Applicants are encouraged to consult with the Director of the Gennadius Library well in advance of the deadline when planning their proposed contributions to the academic program of the Gennadius Library and the School. The Sarbanes Pappas Senior Fellowship is considered a full-time fellowship. Holders should not undertake teaching (remote or in person) or substantive service commitments during the tenure of the award. Holders should consult with the Director of the School before planning travel independent of their role as a Fellow. A final report is due at the end of the award period, and the ASCSA expects that all publications that result from research conducted as a Fellow of the ASCSA acknowledge the support of the ASCSA and copies will be contributed to the Gennadius Library. 

Compensation: Stipend of $45,000, waiver of School membership fees, round-trip coach airfare to Athens, and lunches at Loring Hall (Monday through Friday) for the fellow. An additional $2,500 is available for the fellow to use in developing and presenting contributions to the academic life of the Library.
