All Souls College, Oxford

Evans-Pritchard Lectureship

Applications are invited for the Evans-Pritchard Lectureship during the academic year 2015- 2016.

The Lecturer will deliver a series of four to six lectures in the course of a month, based on field work or other indigenous primary materials concerning Africa, the Middle East or the Mediterranean, and offering an empirical analysis of social relations. Scholars in the fields of social anthropology, classical studies, archaeology, modern history and oriental studies are eligible and, other things being equal, the electors will prefer a person at the beginning or middle of their career. It is hoped that the Lectures will be published in book form.

Candidates for election should send an outline of their proposed lectures, and a list of publications, to evans-pritchard.lectureship@all-souls.ox.ac.uk by Friday 17 April 2015. They should also ask two referees to send their references to evans-pritchard.lectureship@all-souls.ox.ac.uk – also to arrive by Friday 17 April 2015.
