The fellowships are intended primarily for scholars of Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Persian,
Sanskrit, Syriac, Turkish, and other linguistic and philological traditions from Africa,
Asia and Europe, as well as for scholars of intellectual and literary history, of comparative
linguistics, philology, religion and the history of science from outside Berlin, who wish
to carry out their research projects in the framework of the initiative Zukunftsphilologie
in Berlin. Applicants should be at the postdoctoral level and should have obtained their
doctorate within the last five years. Fellows are given the opportunity to pursue research
projects of their own choice, provided the topic falls within the research agenda of the
project. During the fellowship in Berlin they will be integrated into a university or extrauniversity
research institute. In the overall context of the project Zukunftsphilologie, they
will participate in regular working meetings of the project group as well as in lectures,
conferences and summer and winter academies, organized by the project and by the
Forum Transregionale Studien.
