École Nationale des Chartes Fellowship

Application deadline: December 1, 2012

This fellowship, which has existed since 1979, provides auditor tuition and a portion of living expenses for an American or Canadian graduate student who has advanced to PhD candidacy to study at the École Nationale des Chartes in Paris. The École is the oldest institution in Europe specializing in the archival sciences, including paleography, codicology, bibliography, diplomatics, textual editing, and the history of the book. Preference is given to students attending member institutions of the Center for Renaissance Studies consortium. It is strongly recommended that the recipient be in residence at the École during the fall semester. Applications are especially encouraged from students who are in the research stage of their dissertation work.

This Fellowship listing is cross-posted from the Newberry Library’s announcement.
