The Department of the Classics at Harvard University seeks to appoint a tenure-track professor in Byzantine Greek language and literature, at the assistant or (untenured) associate professor level. The appointment is expected to begin on July 1, 2016. The candidate’s research and teaching must be broadly gauged so as to enrich the work of Harvard’s wider community of scholars, notably Byzantinists, medievalists, and classicists within and beyond the Department of the Classics, including Harvard’s Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection. At the same time, an interest and willingness to teach paleography, editing, and/or textual criticism will be highly desirable. Teaching duties will include courses at the undergraduate and graduate level as well as doctoral advising.
