Announcement "Theorizing Cultural Heritage" Rockefeller Foundation Humanities Fellowships Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage
The Rockefeller Foundation Humanities Fellowships at the Smithsonian Institution Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage will host six to eight fellows during 2006-7 focusing on the theme "Theorizing Cultural Heritage". In previous years, fellows have focused on themes such as cultural heritage and political representation, and the economics of cultural heritage. This year's fellows will be humanities-oriented thinkers and practitioners working on issues like: the relationship between individual and group agency or local and national tradition, the relationship between institutional forms of cultural heritage and its form and content, and how art reflects and articulates social identity. The residency term is six weeks to five months, between September 1, 2006 and July 31, 2007. Applicants need not be U.S. citizens to apply. The deadline for letters of interest is January 15, 2006.
