Announcement follows
Franz Werfel, who was born 1890 in Prague and died 1945 in California, is one of the most famous representatives of Austrian Literature. Therefore the Franz Werfel Grant addresses itself to young university teachers whose work focuses on Austrian Literature. The grant programme, which was initiated in 1992, is open to applicants from all over the world. Recipients of Werfel grants can work as visiting researchers at university departments and carry out specialist studies in libraries, archives or at research institutions.
This grant does not only offer material support for up to 18 months but through follow-up support also guarantees sustainability.
Follow-up support includes the following measures:
§ Yearly invitation to a professionally relevant symposium
§ Yearly endowment for the purchase of specialist literature on the occasion of this symposium
§ One-month research grant every three years
§ Habilitation grant
§ Publication allowance
The aim of follow-up support is to inform grant recipients continuously about the current developments in Austrian literature and thus to support them in their teaching activities at their home universities (on the topic of “Austrian literature”).
