Following the appointment of Professor Edith Hall, Leverhulme Professor of Greek Cultural History, to a research chair in London from July 2006, the Department wishes to appoint a replacement in the broad area of Greek Cultural History: see further below. (This appointment is made possible by a generous, ten-year grant from The Leverhulme Trust which will run until 2011; the post itself is permanent.) The Department also wishes to make a further professorial appointment in anticipation of the retirement, within the next four years, of one of its other senior members.

In the broadest terms, the Department will expect to appoint individuals of the highest quality in the field or fields that will best complement its existing strengths; and it warmly invites applications on that basis. However applicants for both positions should be qualified and willing to contribute to the teaching of the ancient languages that underpins the Department's mission.
