Call for Applications Type: APRA Foundation Berlin Philosophy Dissertation Fellowship Institution: Adrian Piper Research Archive (APRA) Foundation Berlin Location: Berlin (Germany) Deadline: Ongoing __________________________________________________ The APRA Foundation Berlin is pleased to offer the APRA Foundation Berlin Philosophy Dissertation Fellowship. The purpose of the APRA Foundation Berlin Philosophy Dissertation Fellowship is to motivate pursuit of a well-rounded education in philosophy that prepares the applicant to flourish in a variety of professional environments – whether academic or otherwise – that demand cross-cultural knowledge, logical reasoning, and recognition of the extent to which Western culture is rooted in the more ancient cultures of the Near and Far East. To this end, it requires of the applicant prior completion of a background program of philosophical study that extends beyond the scope of most undergraduate and graduate degree requirements, in its inclusion of required coursework in logic, Eastern philosophy, and the Arabic and Jewish thinkers in Medieval philosophy. In this way, the Fellowship Applicant Credentials below establish a foundation for advanced philosophical study that cultivates both familiarity with philosophical approaches from a variety of non-Western traditions, and also the shared tools of consistent reasoning and analysis through which to reintegrate them into meaningful relation with the Western tradition. This will serve all Fellowship applicants well whether they actually win the Fellowship or not. The successful applicant will receive a grant of €12,000.00 / year, divided into 12 sequential monthly payments of €1,000.00 each, for a period of 36 sequential months, running from September of the first year through August of the third sequential year.
