AMERICAN ACADEMY IN ROME – ROME, ITALY
Archaeology Supervisor. The American Academy in Rome is accepting applications for Archaeology Supervisor, a one-third-time position with a three-year term. The American Academy in Rome provides logistical support (laboratory facilities, some instrumentation, and the services of the Archaeology Supervisor and Archaeology Laboratory Assistant) to a variety of affiliated projects, which are proposed to and approved by an international committee of scholars, the Archaeology Advisory Committee.
The successful candidate will have a higher degree in archaeology or a related field, long first-hand familiarity, through participation, with the practice of archaeology in Italy, knowledge of classical sites in Italy and the Mediterranean, fluent command of Italian and English, knowledge of the classical languages, excellent capacities for organization, successful experience in working with Italian governmental agencies, and the ability to deal courteously and effectively with a wide variety of people.
The Archaeology Supervisor's duties include: 1) Facilitating the work of project directors for Academy-affiliated projects in Italy, 2) managing the Archaeology Laboratory, and 3) providing expert advice to the Academy community and to the public. A more complete description can be found at the Academy's website (www.aarome.org).
Please send a letter of intention, and curriculum vitae by April 21, 2004 to: Ingrid D. Rowland, Andrew W. Mellon Professor in the Humanities, American Academy in Rome, Via Angelo Masina 5, 00153 Rome, Italy. FAX +39 6 581 0788. E-mail: i.d.rowland@aarome.org.
The Archaeology Advisory Committee of the American Academy in Rome will advise the Director of its decision in early May.
AMERICAN PHILOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION – TAPA EDITOR
The Editor, who must be a member in good standing of the Association, is initially appointed for four years, with the possibility of extension. The new editor's term officially begins in January 2006 and will cover volumes 136-139, 2006-2009. (TAPA is now produced in two issues annually, which appear in May and November.) As Editor Designate, however, the new editor will begin to receive submissions late in 2004, and spend the summer and fall of 2005 preparing the 2006 issues for the press. (The retiring editor, Cynthia Damon will complete the two issues for the year 2005.)
The editor of TAPA has sole responsibility for editorial content, and must acknowledge submissions, select referees, and inform authors whether submissions have been accepted. In addition, the editor must work closely with the journals division of Johns Hopkins University Press, which typesets, produces and distributes each issue.
The editorship requires care, tact, judgment, and efficiency. Authors have a right to expect that their submissions will be evaluated fairly, courteously, and promptly, but securing appropriate referees is not always an easy task. The editor contacts most potential referees and receives their reports by email. Referees do not always agree, and the editor must evaluate their evaluations. Most articles are significantly revised before final acceptance, and the editor frequently advises authors on matters of both substance and style. Many younger scholars submit work to TAPA, and the editor often needs to provide them extra help. Furthermore, the visibility and the contacts created by the job often lead to more requests to the editor for other professional service, such as acting as a referee for promotion or grant applications. The work is therefore considerable, but the editor enjoys a corresponding influence and authority.
The editor is also an ex-officio member of the Committee on Publications and prepares an annual report for the Committee. Also, the editor hosts the annual lunch meeting for editors of classical journals at the APA annual meeting. The editor receives an honorarium of $5,000 annually (paid in two installments as each issue goes to press), and the Association pays for the editor's travel and lodging for the annual meetings during the term of office. The Association also provides some financial support for the establishment of the new editorial office, e.g., for computer equipment and stationery. As in the past, short-listed candidates will be asked to determine what support their home institutions would be willing to provide to enable them to undertake this work.
Potential candidates should submit a current CV and a statement detailing relevant experience to the chair of the search committee, Professor Marilyn Skinner, Department of Classics, University of Arizona, PO Box 210105 Tucson AZ 85721-0105 (e-mail address: mskinner@u.arizona.edu), no later than January 31, 2004. The committee is also eager to receive suggestions for suitable candidates to invite to apply. The other members of the search committee are Barbara Gold and Donald Mastronarde, as well as 2004 President Elaine Fantham and Executive Director Adam Blistein.
American Philological Association - Thesaurus Linguae Latinae
The American Philological Association invites applications for a one-year fellowship, tenable from July 2004 through June 2005, with the possibility of renewal for one additional year, which will enable an American scholar to participate in the work of the Thesaurus Linguae Latinae Institute in Munich. Fellows at the TLL develop a broadened perspective of the range and complexity of the Latin language and culture from the classical period through the early Middle Ages, contribute signed articles to the Thesaurus, have the opportunity to participate in a collaborative international research project, and work with senior scholars in the field of Latin lexicography. The fellowship carries a stipend in the amount of $40,000 and is made possible in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
Applicants must be United States citizens or permanent residents, already have the Ph.D., or anticipate the award of the degree by July 1, 2004. The fellowship offers valuable experience for scholars in a variety of specialties (e.g., Latin language and literature, Roman law, Roman history, the literature of early Christianity); although it is not limited to individuals working in Latin philology, applicants should possess a thorough familiarity with and a special interest in the Latin language. It is anticipated that applicants will already have a reading knowledge of German and will be willing to work toward proficiency in spoken German. Further details will be sent to applicants upon request. Women and members of minority groups underrepresented in Classics are particularly encouraged to apply.
Applications should include a curriculum vitae, a statement of what benefits the applicant expects to derive from the Fellowship for his/her research and teaching, and the names of three referees, whom the applicant should ask to send supporting letters to the Executive Director without further notice. Candidates will be considered by the APA's TLL Fellowship Committee, which serves as the selection committee. The committee will choose a short-list of candidates to be invited for interview at the Annual Meeting in January 2004 in San Francisco, California, and the name of the successful candidate will be announced shortly thereafter. Applications must be received by the deadline of November 20, 2003.
Applications should be sent to: Dr. Adam D. Blistein, Executive Director, American Philological Association, 292 Logan Hall, University of Pennsylvania, 249 S. 36th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104-6304. For additional information about the Fellowship, contact the Chairperson of the APA's TLL Fellowship Committee, Prof. Kathleen Mary Coleman, Department of the Classics, Harvard University, 204 Boylston Hall, Cambridge, MA 02138. Telephone: 617-495-2024. E-mail: kcoleman@fas.harvard.edu.
