vacancy: University of Edinburgh

[Miriam Meyerhoff]

[My apologies for any cross-posting.]

The following position has been advertised (with the usual insanely 
short window for applications typical of University of Edinburgh).

http://www.jobs.ed.ac.uk/vacancies/index.cfm?fuseaction=vacancies.furtherdetails&vacancy_ref=3006604

Please note that while we are especially open to enquiries from 
anyone who is, or could, conduct active research on Scots language -- 
this requirement is desirable, NOT essential.

We would very much welcome applications from any interesting recent, 
or soon-to-be-minted, PhDs who can contribute in exciting ways to our 
programs in the history of English, sociolinguistics, text analysis.

Please direct enquiries to the Head of Department, Caroline Heycock 
<heycock at ling.ed.ac.uk> (or me, in a pinch).

Please also feel free to forward this message.

chrz, Miriam
