Fully Funded Fellowships About the Italian Culture for Scholars in Italy

Villa I Tatti, The Harvard University Center for Italian Renaissance Studies, is inviting scholars to apply for “Italy in the World” fellowship. Projects should address the transnational dialogues between Italy and other cultures (e.g. Latin American, Mediterranean, African, Asian etc.) during the Renaissance, broadly understood to include historical period from the 14^th to the 17^th century. This is a residential fellowship of four or six months in length. Up to four fellowships will be awarded every year.

Scholars working in all the fields supported by I Tatti—architecture and the arts, history, philosophy, literature, music, and history of science—are encouraged to apply.

Eligibility criteria:

1. Applicants must be conversant in English and have familiarity with Italian.
2. At the time of application, a PhD is required.
3. Priority will be given to early and mid-career scholars.
4. I Tatti welcomes applications from scholars from all nations and gives special consideration to candidates without regular access to research materials and facilities in Italy.
5. In light of the residential nature of the fellowship, Fellows must live in the Florence area and spend at least three days a week at the Center.
6. Applicants should indicate their preference between fall (September through December) and winter-spring (January through June).
