Application Deadline

Participant Eligibility

In selecting among applicants, we will be on the lookout for a diversity of interests, skills, and approaches to the seminar’s themes. It is not necessary to know Latin or to be a classicist, although we hope some will apply. We encourage applications from colleagues with interests in art history, cinema, narrative studies, the study of memory and commemoration, colonial studies, anthropology, architecture, and the history of other periods and places. Any U.S. college teacher or independent scholar (as defined by NEH) with a substantial contribution to bring to the themes outlined above is welcome to apply. We do not discriminate on the basis of age, gender, national origin, political affiliation, physical disability, race or color, religion, sexual orientation, or veteran status. The American Academy is fully accessible to handicapped persons. Participants should be aware, however, that Rome, like most European cities, is not as prepared as cities in the U.S. to handle physical disabilities, especially on public transportation. Physical stamina matters for field trips and excursions.
