Apologies for cross posting Forwarded from the Classicists mailing list Simon ________________________________ From: British Academy [mailto:britishacademy@email.britac.ac.uk] Sent: Wed 08/08/2007 02:43 Change to British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship Scheme The timetable for applications for British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowships has been brought forward in order to provide for earlier announcements, to give universities more time to plan to integrate Postdoctoral Fellows into departmental teaching and other programmes. The process will be conducted over two stages instead of one, in order to reduce the burden on HEIs. The deadline for outline submissions is 15 October 2007 for awards to be taken up from September 2008. Institutions are required to countersign outline applications but need provide no further information at this stage. Applicants will be notified of the outcome in December 2007, and those who successfully pass the initial selection stage will be invited to submit full bids by the deadline of 28 February 2008. Institutions are required to provide detailed information, including a complete statement of support and the financial appendix showing Full Economic Costs (FEC), only at this second stage. Awards will be announced in May 2008. Details and application forms are available from www.britac.ac.uk/funding/guide/pdfells.html <http://email.britac.ac.uk/_act/link.php?mId=A815780558610958641686&tId=1199…> Contact: Research Posts Department 020 7969 5265 or email: posts(a)britac.ac.uk The British Academy 10 Carlton House London SW1Y 5AH Tel: 020 7969 5200 Fax: 020 7969 5300 Web: www.britac.ac.uk <http://email.britac.ac.uk/_act/link.php?mId=A815780558610958641686&tId=1199…> -- {~A815780558610958641686~} Messages to the list are archived at http://listserv.liv.ac.uk/archives/classicists.html --- End Forwarded Message --- ---------------------- Simon Mahony Research Associate Centre for Computing in the Humanities King's College London Kay House 7 Arundel St London WC2R 3DX Tel: +44 (0)20 7848 2813 Fax: +44 (0)20 7848 2980 simon.mahony(a)kcl.ac.uk http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=WC2R3DX

CFP: Digital Media and Peer Review in Medieval Studies
by Timothy Stinson 04 Aug '07

04 Aug '07

Call for Papers for the 43rd International Congress on Medieval Studies, May 8-11, 2008, Kalamazoo, Michigan The Medieval Academy of America Committee on Electronic Resources invites submissions to the following sponsored session: "Digital Media and Peer Review in Medieval Studies" Medievalists are increasingly turning to digital media both to produce new types of scholarship such as encoded texts and non-bookish digital projects (e.g. archives and interactive electronic resources) and to advance and increase the efficiency of traditional forms of scholarship such as critical editions. There is not yet widespread agreement, however, regarding how this new work should count for academic promotion, and many scholars working in these new media find that there are few established avenues for getting their work peer reviewed. At the same time, we are witnessing rapid and widespread changes in how we use print texts (e.g. often in scanned, searchable copies), and many traditional publishers of print journals and monographs are under enormous financial pressures from declining sales and print runs, thereby further limiting access to peer review and opportunities for publication. How can we, as a community, bring scholarship, publishing, and the need for peer review into balance? Please email abstracts (not to exceed 300 words) to Timothy Stinson ( stinson(a)jhu.edu). Please include name, professional/university affiliation, and contact information.
