Tablinum Fellowships, Stiftung Bibliothek Werner Oechslin and CISA Palladio

Tablinum Fellowships, Stiftung Bibliothek Werner Oechslin and CISA Palladio

Two institutions with different cultural backgrounds but shared fundamental principles and objectives – the Centro internazionale di studi di architettura Andrea Palladio, Vicenza and the Stiftung Bibliothek Werner Oechslin, Einsiedeln – have joined forces to launch the TABLINUM initiative. The aim is to promote greater interest in rigorous research, in particular conducted on historical sources (i.e. the key tool in humanistic research), by offering fellowships. The distinctive feature of the TABLINUM fellowships is that they provide the opportunity to get to know and benefit from both institutions, each with its own specific orientation and strengths. The fellowship is therefore for the purpose of developing a research project in the humanities involving the two institutions, possibly with a stay in both.

The fellowship, financed by the two institutions, covers the following costs for each institution:
— Accommodation
— Insurance
— Library access
— Workstation (scanner, photocopier, WiFi)
— Travel between the two institutions (Depending on the availability of funds, the grant may also contribute to travel expenses from/to the place of residence)
— Payment of 2,000 euros a month (Italy)/2,000 CHF a month (Switzerland)

The fellowship is addressed to researchers of any nationality preferably born after 1 January 1984. Selection is made on the basis of the submitted research project, curriculum vitae and recommendation letter(s). The first fellowship will have a duration of a minimum 1 month and a maximum 3 months starting in September 2024. Proposals from other periods, including earlier ones, and of different duration by applicants will be evaluated, if justified by the research project. To apply, please complete the online form by 31 March 2024.
