Announcement of Digital Humanities Fellowship
at the
Stanford Humanities Center



We would appreciate if you would share this information with
colleagues who may be interested:

The Stanford Humanities Center seeks to award one Digital Humanities
fellowship for the academic year 2008-2009 to a junior or senior
scholar. Fellows are in residence at the Center during the regular
academic year (September to June) and participate in the Center's
intellectual life, sharing ideas and work in progress with a diverse
community of scholars from across the spectrum of academic fields and ranks.

The Digital Humanities fellowship online application deadline is
October 15, 2007.

The Digital Humanities Fellowship reflects the Stanford Humanities
Center's commitment to supporting new directions in humanities
research. The fellowship is intended for humanities scholars whose
research methods are critically shaped by information
technology. Projects should be oriented to producing new research
outcomes rather than focusing primarily on the creation of archives
or software. Appropriate projects will approach significant questions
in humanistic study with the aid of new research tools or
methodologies. Especially appropriate are candidates whose research
is likely to contribute to intellectual exchange among a diverse
group of scholars within the disciplines of the humanities.

Applicants normally will have received their PhD in or before
September 2005 to be eligible for 2008-2009 fellowships. Fellows
are awarded stipends of up to $60,000. In addition, a housing and
moving allowance of up to $15,000 is offered, dependent upon need.
