Job announcement, University of Chicago

[Howard I. Aronson]

University of Chicago. Assistant Professor in Slavic Literature. The Slavic
Department of the University of Chicago is conducting a search for an
Assistant Professor in a Slavic literature. The first priority will be
demonstrated excellence in scholarship and, if possible, in teaching. The
preference for fields is:

(1) Czech literature
(2) A South Slavic literature
(3) Russian literature

A combination of any of the above will be even more desirable, as would a
combination of Czech literature with Czech linguistics. Ability to teach
undergraduate courses in general humanities will also be advantageous.

Applicants should send, or arrange to have sent, a dossier including a
curriculum vitae, transcripts, three letters of recommendation, and samples
of scholarly writing to the following address.
