Projects can address any aspect of the Italian Renaissance, broadly understood historically to include the period from the 14<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 0; position: relative; top: -0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">th</span> to the 17<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 0; position: relative; top: -0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">th</span> century, and geographically to include transnational dialogues between Italy and other cultures (e.g. Latin American, Mediterranean, African, Asian etc.). Projects should apply digital technologies such as mapping, textual analysis, visualization, or the semantic web to topics in fields such as art and architecture, history, literature, material culture, music, philosophy, religion, and history of science.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> I Tatti offers Fellows the precious time they need to pursue their studies with a minimum of obligations and interruptions together with a maximum of scholarly resources—a combination that distinguishes the Harvard Center from similar institutions. In order to foster a collaborative spirit, Fellows are expected to live in the Florence area and to spend at least three days a week at the center. Lunch and tea are served each weekday, and the I Tatti community takes shape over these convivial occasions. Each year, a limited number of activities organized at I Tatti are reserved for the Fellows, and they join the wider community at conferences, lectures, and concerts.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> This is a residential fellowship of 4 or 6 months in length that will provide the time, space, and resources necessary to discover, explore, and build. Up to two fellowships will be awarded every year.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;">  <strong>Eligibility</strong></div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> A PhD is required for scholars in the humanities and social sciences; in exceptional cases, applications from advanced PhD (ABD) students will be considered. A Master’s degree is required for librarians, archivists, and data science professionals. A background in programming, library sciences, computer graphics, computational linguistics, or other fields relevant to digital humanities research is highly desirable. Candidates should possess the technical skills to carry out their project at the time of application. The selection committee aims to assess the ability of candidates to contribute in a collegial way to the intellectual life of the Harvard Center.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> Short-term Fellowships at I Tatti can be held only once and cannot be deferred. Short-term Fellowships are intended for scholars who have not previously held appointments at I Tatti (with the exception of Graduate Fellows).</div> <h3 style="font-family: Georgia, Baskerville, Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0px 0px 16px; padding: 0px;"> <strong>Terms</strong></h3> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> The stipend is $4,000 per month, plus a one-time supplement (maximum, $1,500) towards relocation expenses. When possible, a one-bedroom apartment will be set aside for the Fellow’s use, rent free, but with charges for utilities. If an apartment is not available, $1000 per month will be offered to help offset rental costs. The Fellowships are funded by a generous grant from Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> Applicants should indicate their preference between fall (September through December) and winter-spring (January through June). Fellows are required to spend at least three days a week at the Villa and to live in Florence or the surrounding area. Fellows enjoy all the privileges of the Harvard Center, including use of the Biblioteca Berenson seven days a week and lunch with other Appointees from Monday through Friday. Short-term Fellows do not receive an office or study, but they will have their own desk or carrel in the Library itself. Fellows may not take on any other obligations such as teaching positions, even part-time ones, during any part of their Fellowship period.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> The Fellow is responsible to obtain a visa, <em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">permesso di soggiorno</em>, and health coverage (and, if appropriate, for accompanying family members). The Fellow must determine if a visa is required and, if necessary, obtain one before travel.</div> <h3 style="font-family: Georgia, Baskerville, Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0px 0px 16px; padding: 0px;"> <strong><a href="http://itatti.harvard.edu/mellon-fellowship-digital-humanities">Application</a></strong></h3> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> Applications can be written in English or Italian and must submitted electronically by midnight (Cambridge, MA time) on <strong>December 14, 2016</strong>.

In order to foster a collaborative spirit, Fellows are expected to live in the Florence area and to spend at least three days a week at the center. Lunch and tea are served each weekday, and the I Tatti community takes shape over these convivial occasions. Each year, a limited number of activities organized at I Tatti are reserved for the Fellows, and they join the wider community at conferences, lectures, and concert<br /><br />This is a residential fellowship of 4 or 6 months in length.

At the time of application, a PhD is required.

It must be possible for applicants to carry out most of their research in Florence. I Tatti welcomes applications from scholars from all nations and gives special consideration to candidates without regular access to research materials and facilities in Italy.

When possible, a one-bedroom apartment will be set aside for the Fellow’s use, rent free, but with charges for utilities. If an apartment is not available, $1000 per month will be offered to help offset rental costs.

Lunch and tea are served each weekday, and the I Tatti community takes shape over these convivial occasions. Rather than present a traditional paper at the end of the year, Fellows give informal presentations in the early Fall.

Each year, a limited number of activities organized at I Tatti are reserved for the Fellows, and they join the wider community at conferences, lectures, and concerts.</div> <h3 style="font-family: Georgia, Baskerville, Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0px 0px 16px; padding: 0px;"> <br />Eligibility</h3> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> Fellows are selected by an international and interdisciplinary committee that welcomes applications from scholars from all nations. The committee aims to assess the ability of candidates to contribute in a collegial way to the intellectual life of the Harvard Center. It pays special attention to the strength of the proposed project and its potential to yield original results, and to the candidate’s curriculum vitae.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> At the time of application, scholars must hold a PhD, <em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">dottorato di ricerca</em>, or an equivalent degree. They must be conversant in either English or Italian and able to understand both languages. They should be in the early stages of their career, having received a PhD between 2006-2015 and have a solid background in Italian Renaissance studies. (NB: The PhD certificate must bear a date between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2015, inclusive.)</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> The project must represent advanced research in the Italian Renaissance, broadly defined historically as the period ranging from the 14th to the 17th centuries and geographically to include transnational dialogues between Italy and other cultures (e.g. Latin American, Mediterranean, African, Asian etc.). Subjects covered include art and architecture, history, literature, material culture, music, philosophy, religion, and science. Scholars can also apply to work on the transmission and circulation of ideas, objects, and people during the Renaissance, into and beyond the Italian peninsula, or on the historiography of the Italian Renaissance, including the rebirth of interest in the Renaissance in later periods. It must be possible for applicants to carry out most of their research in Florence with the resources available in the city and at I Tatti. Preference is given to a postdoctoral research project. Applicants should demonstrate that they have already completed the necessary preliminary work to establish that the project shows promise. Projects could also represent a significant reworking of a dissertation. Special consideration may be given to candidates without regular access to research materials and facilities available in Italy.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> One of the I Tatti fellowships, sponsored by a generous grant from the Florence Gould Foundation, is designated for scholars who a) work on a Franco-Italian Renaissance topic (which includes any project exploring the contact between the geographic areas of Italy and France in the early modern period); b) reside in France; or c) have French citizenship. Candidates who fall into one or more of these categories should indicate their status in the penultimate section on the application form.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> The Fellow is responsible to obtain a visa, <em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">permesso di soggiorno</em>, and health coverage (and, if appropriate, for accompanying family members). The Fellow must determine if a visa is required and, if necessary, obtain one before travel.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;"> Renewals or repeats of an I Tatti Fellowship are not granted.
