Associate Professorship of Early Modern European History

Start Date: 1 October 2027 Closing Date: 4 January (23:59) Overview of the post New College and the Faculty of History are recruiting an Associate Professor of Early Modern European History. The post is tenable from 1 October 2027, or as soon as possible thereafter. The post is attached to the Penry Williams Tutorial Fellowship at New College. The postholder will conduct research and teaching in early modern European history (1500-1700), with a preference for the field of German-speaking Europe. In New College, the successful candidate will join a strong History team at a College with a distinguished record in the subject and be part of a vibrant and multidisciplinary intellectual community. At the History Faculty, the candidate will join what is perhaps the largest collection of early modern historians at any university in the world. Faculty members play an important role in the lively multi-disciplinary community of early modern scholars within the wider university, particularly through the Centre for Early Modern Studies, as well as the multi-period Oxford Centres for Global History, Intellectual History, Women’s, Gender, Identity and Queer History and the History of Science and Medicine. Oxford’s libraries, galleries and museums offer extraordinary opportunities for the integration of their collections into research and teaching.
