PhD Position in Literary Studies / Translation Studies: Digital Magazines and the Emergence of Contemporary World Literature

Employer

University of Leuven, Leuven, Belgium

Description

The research groups Translation & Intercultural Transfer and English Literature of the Faculty of Arts at KU Leuven (campuses Antwerp and Leuven) are looking for a PhD candidate to execute a four-year research project on the role of digital magazines in the making of contemporary world literature. The doctoral project is one of three belonging to a large-scale research program that studies pluriactivity, digitality, and mobility as key features of the way world literature functions now. KU Leuven is a leading research hub in the transnational study of literature and translation. It offers an exciting environment for young scholars to pursue their research in an independent way alongside the benefits of a genuinely collaborative mode of working. While this particular doctoral project is based at the university’s Leuven campus, it is undertaken in close collaboration with researchers and supervisors based in both Antwerp and Leuven. Both cities are close to Brussels, and less than two hours from Paris, London, and Amsterdam.
