Visegrad Scholarship at OSA
Location:       Hungary
Grant Date:     2010-10-14 (in 20 days)

For a better and deeper understanding of the interdependent recent
history of (the center of) Europe, the International Visegrad Fund
offers ten research fellowship grants annually in the Open Society
Archives at Central European University, Budapest on a competitive
basis to support scholars who wish to conduct research in the holdings
of OSA, and whose current research projects are relevant to the
holdings and the given research priorities of the Fund and OSA. The
grants of 2.000 euro are designed to provide access to the archives
for scholars, artists, and journalists, and to cover travel to and
from Budapest, a modest subsistence, and accommodation for a maximum
research period of two months.

Fellows are free to work on the project of their choice; however, in
the academic year of 2010-2011, applicants with one of the following
topics might enjoy advantage over other applicants:

Representations and interpretations of World War II and/or subsequent
wars in Europe;
The complicated relationship between historiography/history writing
and propaganda.

Applicants, preferably but not exclusively, from a V4 country, may be
researchers, students after their first degree carrying out research,
or artists, journalists, academics, or others who have already started
their project that is relevant for the holdings at OSA
