allows, visiting faculty fellows may also be eligible for office space.

We invite applications from full-time, continuing faculty in any humanistic discipline who are eager to be part of a community of scholars engaged in innovative and interdisciplinary research and conversations around our theme of Humanities Plural. Research projects do not need to address the theme directly, but we are especially interested in projects that raise clear stakes for thinking about issues raised in our theme description below.

The application deadline for applicants to submit their materials is January 18, 2027, at 11.59 PM ET.

Humanities Plural

At a moment when fields such as "history of the humanities" and "humanities theory" are coming into view, and as hybrid formations such as digital humanities, health humanities, and public humanities are taking humanities scholarship into new academic and extra-academic spaces, we seek to expand our horizons for thinking about the humanities as they have existed or are unfolding in our current moment. Among the questions we hope to address in our shared discussions and programming are: What are the contexts, across time and space, where humanistic learning occurs and matters (e.g., formal or informal academic settings, places of worship, prisons, online spaces, museums)? Where is humanistic scholarship enlisted into serving other systems of knowledge and value (e.g., medical schools, think tanks, revolutionary movements, corporate boardrooms), and what sorts of work is it asked to do there? Which communities have forged programs or practices of humanistic learning without having access to formal or elite institutional structures? What are the distinct methods, epistemologies, aesthetics, and/or values that take shape in these sites? What gave rise to "theory," where and why has it taken root, and what is its future? And how do or should "the humanities" function in hybrid formations, for example in digital humanities, environmental humanities, or health humanities?

Qualifications:

Applicants must be full-time, continuing faculty at institutions of higher education in the Atlanta area.

Application Instructions:

To complete the online application, you will need to provide the following:

• Project description (1000 words maximum, including a timeline for the fellowship year)
• Curriculum vitae
• Email information for your department chair

SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS

Project description: Applicants should describe the specific research/writing planned for the period of the fellowship and provide a timeline. Describe the project's engagement with the theme and how this work will benefit from and contribute to the interdisciplinary scholarly environment.

Letter from department chair: The applicant's department chair will be automatically notified via Interfolio to upload their letter of endorsement. Letters should be no longer than two pages and should indicate: (a) support for the applicant's participation in the Fellowship program; (b) an assessment of the contribution the applicant would make to the interdisciplinary research seminar and to the Center more broadly.

It is the applicant's responsibility to ensure that all required documents are uploaded to Interfolio and submitted. Incomplete applications cannot be considered after the deadline.

ACCEPTANCE PROCEDURES

Upon notification of a Faculty Fellowship award, recipients must agree to:

1. attend all Fellows' seminar meetings during their Fellowship;
2. submit a final report of progress to the Director at the end of the Fellowship;
3. acknowledge the FCHI in all work resulting from research and writing done during the Fellowship;
4. immediately notify the FCHI of any other support or of any conflicts with the restrictions and conditions of this Fellowship Program.

Please note: If for any reason a fellow's circumstances change and the grantee is unable to use the fellowship during the academic year for which it was granted, the Fellowship will be forfeited. If the project involves human subjects, approval from the proper Emory Institutional Review Board Committee (IRB) is required before Fellowship funding can be released. For more information, please refer to the IRB website: www.irb.emory.edu. The FCHI regrets that it is unable to provide any assessments of unsuccessful applications.
