Mapping Eastern Europe invites applications for a three-month remote fellowship for Mapping Eastern Europe, which is an open-access digital platform that focuses on the history, art, and culture of Eastern Europe between the 13th and 17th centuries.

The fellow will assist with research and writing about the medieval and early modern visual culture of the northern Danube regions OR the Ottoman presence in Eastern Europe.

The successful candidate will research and write 3 case studies on key monuments and objects, and 2 historical and/or thematic overviews that will then be published on the Mapping Eastern Europe website (either in longform or video format).

With this opportunity, we aim to raise awareness about the historical and artistic complexities of the region. We are equally interested in both topics (the regions to the north of the Danube River and the Ottoman presence in Eastern Europe) as they are areas that we would like to see better explored and represented on Mapping Eastern Europe.

The successful applicant should hold a PhD and be an art historian with a specialty in the medieval and/or early modern visual culture of Eastern Europe. Applicants may be of any nationality. The fellow would need to have a solid knowledge of English.

The timeline for this work is somewhat flexible but a start date at the beginning of March 2024 would be ideal.
