    Postdoctoral Research Associate - Liverpool, United Kingdom - University of Liverpool

    Default job background
    Part time, Fixed-Term/Contract
    Description

    The Department of History seeks to recruit a Postdoctoral Research Associate as part of the Fritz-Thyssen-Foundation Award project "Massacre and the Law. Atrocity, The Holy Roman Empire, and the Thirty Years War". This interdisciplinary project investigates how the escalation of excessive violence and atrocity during the Thirty Years War affected normative thinking produced by jurisprudents, theologians, and military writers across the Holy Roman Empire.

    The project aims to establish the impact of atrocity, for instance, on thinking about the nature of just conduct of war both inter and intra-state, the idea of civilian immunity, and the connection between military discipline and the prevention of atrocity. The project combines the histories of political thought, philosophy, theology, and law with the history of violence. It will enhance our understanding of the transformative dynamic of violence and feed into a cross-disciplinary cultural and intellectual anthropology of transgressive violence.

    The Postdoctoral Research Associate will work under the direction of the two Co-Principal Investigators on this project, Dr Harald E. Braun (Liverpool, UK) and Professor Daniel Schwartz (Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel). You are expected to have experience in historical research, preferably within the fields of intellectual history and/or the history of violence. You will also have command of English and German as well as some command of Latin. You will be based at the University of Liverpool campus. You must be prepared to undertake research and related activities, including archival research and library visits, in Germany and Israel as well as other European countries as required. You will have the opportunity to develop their research skills and academic profile, and benefit from the support of the Prosper PI network and other training initiatives at Liverpool.

    Any applicants who are still awaiting their PhD to be awarded should be aware that if successful, they will be appointed at grade 6, spine point 30. Upon written confirmation that they have been successful in being awarded their PhD, they will be moved onto grade 7, spine point 31 from the date of their award.

    Start date negotiable, but successful candidate must be in post by the latest 1 September 2024.

    Interviews will take place online w/c 15 July 2024. This fixed term post is tenable for a period of 18 months with the possibility of an extension.
