Fully Funded PhD in Latin Language and Literature: Research-Creation in the Early Middle Ages

The University of Melbourne, in collaboration with the University of Toronto, is offering a fully funded PhD position in Latin Language and Literature, focusing on the project 'Research-Creation in the early Middle Ages: the example of Hibernicus Exul.' The successful candidate will be co-supervised by Sarah Corrigan (University of Melbourne) and Associate Professor Cillian O'Hogan (University of Toronto). This unique opportunity allows the student to spend a year in Toronto, several months in France, and the remainder of their candidacy in Melbourne, providing a rich international research experience. The project centers on research-creation in the early Middle Ages, with a particular emphasis on the figure of Hibernicus Exul. Candidates with a strong background in Latin, medieval studies, or related fields are encouraged to apply. The scholarship package includes a tuition fee waiver, living allowance, health insurance, and relocation support, making this an attractive opportunity for those interested in medieval literature and cross-institutional research. Applicants should have a completed or nearly completed master's degree in a relevant discipline, proficiency in Latin, and a demonstrated interest in the early Middle Ages. Additional language skills and experience with research-creation approaches are advantageous.
