Humanities

The Advanced School in the Humanities at the IIAS is a program that brings together leading scholars from different disciplines in the humanities to conduct research and engage in scholarly discussions on a wide range of topics. The program is designed for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and established scholars who are interested in studying the most recent developments in the humanities.

The Advanced School in the Humanities covers a variety of topics, including philosophy, literature, history, archaeology, and cultural studies. The program also includes a variety of lectures, seminars, and workshops, which provide participants with an opportunity to engage with leading scholars in their field and to receive feedback on their own research.

Participants in the Advanced School in the Humanities at the IIAS have the opportunity to engage in collaborative research with other scholars and to present their work at seminars and workshops. They also have access to the IIAS’s extensive library and other resources, which can help support their research.

The Advanced School in the Humanities is held annually and it is open to applicants from all over the world. It is a highly competitive program and the selection of participants is based on the quality of their research and the potential to contribute to the academic community. The program is a great opportunity for those who are interested in advancing their knowledge in the humanities and for those who are looking to build a network of academic contacts in their field. The General Director of the School is Professor Anthony Grafton, an historian of early modern Europe, a professor of history at Princeton University and a multiple-prize recipient.

 The IIAS’s Advanced School in the Humanities also offers a unique opportunity to study and interact with scholars and researchers from different cultural backgrounds. This could be an important aspect to consider for scholars and researchers whose work is closely related to the Israel and Middle East region, as it offers a chance for diverse perspectives and multidisciplinary approaches in the study of the Humanities.
