Sergey A. Ivanov’s lecture “Anthony of Novgorod in Constantinople: A tour guide behind a pilgrim’s report” will be translated simultaneously.

This joint fellowship supports a Post-Doctoral or Senior Scholar that will contribute to the digital exhibition “Nordic Tales, Byzantine Paths”, a collaboration between GABAM and the SRII which will be presented in the 24th International Congress of Byzantine Studies (Venice, August 2022). Other duties will include the preparation of a large EU project grant about artistic interconnections between the Byzantine and Nordic worlds.

Fellowship will include the monthly stipend, insurance and free housing at the guesthouse of SRII. It will be for six months and the expected starting date is in February 2022. Depending on the pandemic conditions, the fellowship may begin online for a certain period, during which the stipend will be paid. The fellow will have access to the libraries and research facilities of both Koç University and the SRII.

The collaborative event of Bilkent Saygun Center, Byzantium at Ankara, KU-SNF GABAM, Bilkent Department of History and Hacettepe University “Strolling through Echoes of the Past” will be held in Nov. 11-12, 2021.

GABAM offers a limited number of grants to support PhD candidates in Late Antique and Byzantine Studies. Grants of up to 5,000 euros are available, depending on the proposed project, and must be used for ongoing PhD research.
