NEH Foreign Study Fellowship Opportunity Summer 2010.


NEH Foreign Study Fellowship Opportunity Summer 2010.

The National Endowment for the Humanities is sponsoring a summer
seminar for College and University Professors in July of 2010 in
Tunisia to be led by Professor Thomas Heffernan. Stipends of $3,900.
are available for all who are selected to participate. The subject of
the seminar will in part examine the representation of the self in
the autobiographies of Perpetua of Carthage and Augustine of Hippo.
Both subjects are Roman north African, both are converts, and both
are early proponents of a sustained investigation of human
personality. Although both of our subjects are widely studied this is
the first time that we will have an opportunity to study them in
their lived context against the backdrop of the material culture of
Imperial Rome which gave such a profound shape to their lives. If you
are interested in this seminar and would like a detailed presentation
of the full five weeks including the eight field trips, see my
