Opportunità

The Italian-German Historical Institute (ISIG) of the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) in Trento is an advanced research centre that promotes research in early modern and contemporary history, with particular emphasis on transnational history. ISIG invites expressions of interest from postdoctoral researchers with an excellent track record of research and publications to apply for Marie Skłodowska-Curie (MSCA) Postdoctoral Fellowships (either a European Postdoctoral Fellowship or a Global Postdoctoral Fellowship), awarded by the European Commission, to be hosted at ISIG. Priority will be given to applicants whose profiles fit closely with existing research interests and projects at ISIG. Selected candidates will be offered both academic advice and administrative support from ISIG and the FBK Research Office with regards to the proposal development.

The 65th Study Week organized by the Italian-German Historical Institute of the Fondazione Bruno Kessler, in partnership with Jean Monnet European Centre of Excellence, the University of Trento and the DHI in Rom will take place from September 3-5, 2025. On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War in Europe and the liberation of the occupied European countries from Nazi Fascism, the ISIG LXVI Study Week 2025 will focus on Historians and Civic Engagement from 1945 to the Present Day.

L’Istituto Storico Italo-Germanico della Fondazione Bruno Kessler, fin dalla sua nascita, ha investito nelle collane editoriali, nelle quali sono apparse ricerche originali, frutto delle attività scientifiche dell’Istituto e del lavoro di ricerca di studiose e studiosi esterni che collaborano con il Centro o sono legate/i ad esso da consonanza di temi storiografici e metodi.

The Italian-German Historical Institute (ISIG) of the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) in Trento is an advanced research centre that promotes research in early modern and contemporary history, with particular emphasis on transnational history. The research team includes permanent researchers, collaborators, and fellows. The institute has one of the most comprehensive specialist libraries for transnational history, with particular emphasis on Italian-German connections. The library also holds special collections, including both early modern printed books as well as the personal archives of Giulio Basetti Sani, Hubert Jedin, Serafino Majerotto, and Antonio Zieger. We invite historians whose research would benefit from collaboration with ISIG to apply for a Visiting Fellowship. These fellowships can last between one and six months.
