University or Organization: FRIAS Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg 
Department: School of Language & Literature
Job Location: Freiburg, Germany 
Web Address: http://www.frias.uni-freiburg.de
Job Rank: Junior or Senior Tandem-Fellowship  

Specialty Areas: Ling & Literature 

Description:

The Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies (FRIAS) is the collaborative 
research college of the Albert Ludwig University of Freiburg; it was founded in 
2007 and is funded by the federal and state governments' Excellence 
Initiative.

The fellowship is open to teams of one linguist and one literary scholar who 
collaborate on an innovative research project in the productive interface 
between linguistics and literature, seek to broaden relevant methodological-
theoretical horizons or want to contribute in other ways to the deepening of 
the exchange between linguistics and literary studies. Both established 
scientists and junior researchers are eligible; applicants must have completed 
at least a doctoral degree. Applicants with an international background are 
especially welcome. This offer is subject to the University of Freiburg's 
success in the second round of the Excellence Initiative.

Both winning applicants will be appointed as FRIAS Fellows, with all rights 
and responsibilities, for a time period of 4-6 months; residence in Freiburg is 
mandatory, and visible and regular presence at the School is expected. 
Professors receive a Senior Research Fellowship, and junior researchers a 
Junior Research Fellowship. The fellowship will be awarded according to 
individual agreement and - within the upper limits - according to the principle 
"no loss, no gain." Under certain conditions FRIAS can finance teaching 
replacements at the Fellows' home universities. 

The Tandem-Fellowship recipients' project is incorporated into the 
interdisciplinary research context of FRIAS and the School of Language & 
Literature (http://www.frias.uni-freiburg.de); additionally, it should display a 
high level of scientific ingenuity. Means will be provided for organizing a 
conference on the tandem group's linguistic-literary topic; subject to a 
positive peer review, publication of the research results in the FRIAS book 
series linguae & litterae (De Gruyter, Berlin/New York) is possible. The 
Institute offers Fellows well-equipped workplaces and personal research 
support; comfortable residence is provided in the Freiburg University 
Guesthouse.

Only electronic applications, including CVs, lists of publications and a brief 
research proposal (junior researchers should also provide three addresses of 
referees), will be accepted. 

The position is limited to six months. The university seeks to increase the 
number of participating women and strongly encourages qualified women to 
apply.

Application Deadline: 15-Feb-2012
