Applications are invited for the European and American Young Scholars'
(= PhD since May 1997) Summer Institute on "The Concept of Language in
the Academic Disciplines", to be held in August 2003 and August 2004.
The Faculty for the Institute are Professors John E. Joseph (University
of Edinburgh) and Talbot J. Taylor (College of William & Mary). A number
of prominent guest lecturers will also participate.

The programme, made possible by grants from the Andrew W. Mellon
Foundation and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, will provide
summer stipends and cover the cost of travel, meals, lodging and texts
for participants, who are expected to take part in both the 2003 and
2004 institutes. The 2003 institute will take place at the National
Humanities Center in North Carolina, and the 2004 institute at a
location in Europe to be determined.

Although the programme is intended primarily for people who have already
completed the PhD, advanced PhD students working on a topic closely
related to that of the programme may apply.

Full details and application forms, which should be submitted by 15
April 2003, can be found on:  http://www.nhc.rtp.nc.us/yssi/index.htm
