København S

Applications are invited for a PhD scholarshipat the Department of Communication. The chosen candidate will be employed and enrol at the Faculty of Humanities under PhD School at the Faculty of Humanities

The scholarship is for 3 years starting on 1 January 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter.

The successful candidate will be appointed to the ERC-funded project “Women in the Nordic Enlightenment (WHENCE). Changing the narratives of early modern philosophy and uncovering women’s contribution to Scandinavian gender equality” led by PI Sabrina Ebbersmeyer.

The core of this project is to bring to light and critically assess women’s intellectual contribution to the Nordic Enlightenment by examining a text corpus consisting of unpublished material and published texts written by more than a hundred women in Scandinavia. The guiding hypothesis is that the Nordic way of women’s Enlightenment significantly differs from developments prevalent in other regions of Europe, and that women played a decisive role in creating a sustainable identification of the Nordic countries with gender equality.

The PhD student is expected to investigate the impact of women’s writings and their agency on men’s thought about women and gender equality with a particular focus on the proto-feminist thought in the writings of Ludvig Holberg (1684-1754), Otto Sperling (1634-1715), and Petrus Hedengrahn (1677-1727).
