NOTES AND QUERIES:

Ghent University - Tenure-Track position in pre-1900 European Lit.
Subject to final approval from university authorities, the Faculty of Arts and Philosophy at Ghent University (Belgium) will soon advertize two tenure-track positions as docent (equivalent of Lecturer in the UK system and Assistant Professor in the US system) with a focus on academic research. The advertisement will include four disciplines; the two posts will be awarded to the candidates most likely to contribute to the Facultys strong research profile. The Department of Literary Studies wants to draw attention to the vacancy in European literature from Antiquity to 1900, and asks potential candidates to get in touch now, so as to receive detailed instructions on application deadlines and procedures as soon as that information is available. Applications from individuals with expertise in any European literature taught in the department (Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Latin, Portuguese, Spanish, Scandinavian) and any period prior to 1900 will be considered. Applications from individuals with transhistorical, transnational, translingual or interdisciplinary research interests are particularly welcome. This may include but is not limited to:


 * publications or research plans that cover more than one period (for example, studies tracing the development of a concept, trope or textual tradition from antiquity through the Middle Ages or the reception of Classical works in the early modern period).
 * publications or research plans that cover more than one national or language tradition (comparative approaches, the study of influence and imitation across borders, etc.)
 * publications or research plans that create bridges to other departments and disciplines (history, art history, archaeology, history of science, law, philosophy, etc.)
 * publications or research plans that involve innovative methodologies (for example, New Philology, New Historicism, Digital Humanities, history of the book, textual materialism, stylometry, computational philology)

The successful candidate will play a central role in the organization of the new two-year M.A. programme in Historical Linguistics and Literature (ancient, medieval and early modern). This M.A. programme teaches students to decipher texts from earlier periods and to situate them in their wider historical, social, cultural and philosophical context. Coursework focuses on diachronic linguistics, techniques of textual analysis, history of ideas and cultural history as well as period-specific topics in the various languages taught in the department. For more information on the programme, see: tinyurl.com/75hqxvw The successful candidate will also contribute to one or more of the following interdisciplinary research groups at the university:


 * GICS: Ghent Institute for Classical Studies: www.giks.ugent.be
 * Henri Pirenne Institute for Medieval Studies: www.pirenne.ugent.be
 * GEMS: Group for Early Modern Studies: www.gems.ugent.be
 * Centre for the Study of Text and Print Culture: www.print-culture.ugent.be

The successful candidate will play a role in coordinating research collaborations across the language groups and research periods within the department and in establishing bridges between the department and other research units both at the University and beyond. Collaborations could include the development of new course offerings or programmes of study (for example, through Erasmus Mundus) or larger research projects (for example, through HERA: www.heranet.info).

Please note that the candidate must have obtained a doctorate in a relevant field between 1 Feb. 2006 and 1 Feb. 2011. This window, however, may be expanded in the case of medical or maternity leave or extenuating circumstances. If in doubt, please get in touch.

This is a tenure-track position. At the time of appointment, the lecturer and the university will agree upon a set of personalized goals, which will be laid out in an addendum to the tenure-track contract. After a five-year trial period, the lecturer will be granted tenure and promoted to Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) provided that s/he has met these goals.

Candidates are encouraged to clarify in their applications not only their past research and publications but also their future research plans and how they might collaborate with research groups and with colleagues both inside and outside the department. It is recommended that candidates give as much detail as possible about future projects and plans including possible sources of funding and the venues to which research will be submitted.

The Department of Literary Studies at UGent is a vibrant community of 168 people, including some 50 fully funded PhD-students and 20 postdocs; the professor will join 27 colleagues specialising in nine languages as well as General and Comparative Literature.

Ghent University is committed to internationalization and welcomes applications from foreign scholars. Knowledge of Dutch is not necessary to apply, but candidates should be willing to learn the language. The International Staff Office assists with the transition and orientation of foreign employees.

The deadline for application is likely to be 15 August 2012 (subject to confirmation), but candidates are advized to get in touch with the contact persons. Formal information on how to apply and the official announcement of the position (including confirmed deadline) will be available at: www.ugent.be/en/news/vacancies/autonomous

Can anyone confirm the deadline change? The MLA website appears to be down, so I can't check the JIL. And Interfolio has suspended their mailing services due to the storm on the east coast, so it would be really convenient if this deadline had been extended, at least for the recommendation letters they want us to send through the mail.

I emailed chair of department for the same reason (rec. letters through interfolio) and she confirmed that the deadline has been extended to Nov. 19 -- poststorms.

NOTES:

They posted this ad two weeks before their deadline, and they want official transcripts sent by email? Has anyone asked them about this? Two weeks does not sound like enough time to guarantee that official transcripts will make their way to the committee.

A: I have official grad and undergrad transcripts uploaded on Interfolio, so this would be a very simple request for me to fulfill--I suggest you see about doing the same. I have no idea how I did it, but I'm sure you could figure it out!

Response: Yeah, I should probably do that. But this is the first time I've had to send official transcripts on such short notice, so I wasn't prepared. I am going to email them and ask if unofficial copies would be ok (unless someone else has already asked this question.)
 * The phrasing "a copy of official graduate transcripts" would suggest that scans uploaded to Interfolio (as the user helpfully suggests above) would suffice. Usually schools don't need sealed/signed official transcripts unless they are actually on the brink of hiring you.
