PhD Studentships at Kent:
Documentation of Endangered Languages and Cultures

Two PhD studentships funded by the Arts and Humanities Research
Council are offered, one in Anthropology and one in Linguistics, as
part of a larger project to study and document endangered languages
and cultures in the Nigeria-Cameroon borderland. The linguistics PhD
will undertake the primary linguistic documentation of two
endangered languages, the Anthropologist will focus on the cultural
ecology of language loss among the same groups.

The linguist will decide on and collect a representative corpus of
language material for documentation for two languages, at different
stages with respect to endangerment and
attrition.

The anthropologist will study the cultural dimensions of language use
and the interplay of ethnic identity and language.

Applicants must have completed a first or upper second class honours
degree or its equivalent, and/or a Masters degree, in Anthropology or
Linguistics by the starting date. No prior experience of research in
Africa is necessary.

Starting date: 1st September 2006 (possibly earlier)

To be eligible for funding, you must also fulfil AHRC requirements:
EU citizens will be eligible for a full award as long as they have
been resident in the UK for the previous three years. An EU Citizen
who does not fulfil the residency condition will be eligible for a
fees only award.

Applications (including the receipt of references) must be received
by 10 April 2006; interviews will be held week beginning 22 May 2006.
