TYTUS SUMMER RESIDENCY PROGRAM

The University of Cincinnati Classics Department is pleased to
announce the Margo Tytus Summer Residency Program. Summer
Residents, in the fields of philology, history and archaeology will
come to Cincinnati for a minimum of one month and a maximum of
three during the summer. Applicants must have the Ph.D. in hand at
the time of application. Apart from residence in Cincinnati during
term, the only obligation of Summer Residents is to pursue their own
research. They will receive free university housing. They will
also receive office space and enjoy the use of the University of
Cincinnati and Hebrew Union College Libraries.

The University of Cincinnati Burnam Classics Library (http://
www.libraries.uc.edu/libraries/classics/index.html) is one of the
world's premier collections in the field of Classical Studies.
Comprising 235,000 volumes and other research materials, the library
covers all aspects of the Classics: the languages and literatures,
history, civilization, art, and archaeology. Of special value for
scholars is both the richness of the collection and its accessibility
-- almost any avenue of research in the classics can be pursued
deeply and broadly under a single roof. The unusually comprehensive
core collection, which is maintained by three professional classicist
librarians, is augmented by several special collections such as
15,000 nineteenth century German Programmschriften, extensive
holdings in Palaeography, Byzantine and Modern Greek Studies. At
neighboring Hebrew Union College, the Klau Library (http://
library.cn.huc.edu/), with holdings in excess of 450,000 volumes and
other research materials, is rich in Judaica and Near Eastern Studies.

Application Deadline: February 15.

A description of the Tytus Summer Residency Program is available
online at http://classics.uc.edu/resources/tytus2.html. There is an
online application at http://classics.uc.edu/resources/
