Cadbury Fellowship 2020 for Researchers in African Institutions.

How do the authors of what we call ‘sources’ convey meaning in their written and oral texts? How do these meanings develop in historically specific semantic worlds? How is meaning transformed through translations, reinterpretations and struggles over meaning? How is the world made sense of in African languages and epistemic traditions, and what changes when analysts – African and non-African – make sense of African texts and societies in different discursive contexts? They wish to discuss what makes the understanding of African societies possible; what is at stake when different types of exegetes interpret the past or the present of Africa.

Cadbury Fellowship Eligibility.

  • Open to early-career scholars whose research would benefit from a residential fellowship of up to four weeks at the University of Birmingham.
  • Applicants must be based in an African institution.
  • They should be in the early stages of their academic careers (that is, they should have completed a PhD within the last four years, or now be close to completing one) and they must demonstrate that their research is relevant to the theme outlined above.

 

Benefits Cadbury Fellowship.

  • Fellowships will cover return air-fare, accommodation and living costs for a period of four weeks.
  • The Cadbury fellows will have time to use the University or Birmingham’s excellent library resources, discuss their work with academic staff and postgraduate students at DASA, and contribute to the intellectual life of the department by participating in the numerous events that will be organised here during the period of the fellowships.

 

Cadbury Fellowships 2020 Selection Criteria.

Fellowship applications will be selected on the basis of their interest and originality with regards to questions of interpretation:

  • How can the meanings of what we call our sources be accessed?
  • What problems arise in the process of interpreting?
  • How is the researcher positioned in relation to the authors of his/her sources, and the users and audiences of the knowledge s/he analyses and/or produces?
  • And how do researchers represent the phenomena they study – are their interpretations new representations?
  • How are they related to the original meanings conveyed by the producers of their sources?
