Grant: Volkswagen Momentum Fellowship Programme. From Pre-Modern to Modern Perspectives in Judaic Studies
The Munich Research Centre for Jewish-Arabic Cultures at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München invites applications for fellowships from scholars whose research addresses Judaism and Jewish communities across the Middle East and North Africa from the early modern period into the modern era. The programme brings together scholarship that has traditionally treated these periods separately and promotes an interdisciplinary, diachronic approach to long-term historical developments. It draws on anthropology, sociology, political science, law, philology, and religious studies, and is committed to challenging Eurocentric narratives in Jewish historiography by amplifying the experiences of Mizrahim.
Deadline for applications: November 2, 2026 | DETAILS
