Dear Colleagues,

This new position at Oxford may be of interest to some of you. I'm told that scholars with interest in the Arabic expressions of Eastern Orthodoxy are encouraged to apply.

Best wishes,

Alexander

Dear all,

 

I am attaching the advertisement for the new Chair in Eastern Orthodox Christianity recently endowed at Oxford by the Honourable Michael Huffington.  We are looking for candidates who are expert in any period or area of Orthodox studies, with a particular (but not exclusive) interest in those who can make a scholarly contribution to current issues. The overriding consideration, as always at Oxford, will be academic quality. Please pass this information on to anyone whom you think likely to be interested in and suitable for the post.

 

Best wishes,

 

Mark Edwards

Professor of Early Christian Studies

Chair of the Faculty Board of Theology and Religion

University of Oxford
