ITSEE (the Institute for Textual Scholarship and Electronic Editing at the University of Birmingham) is currently advertising three postdoctoral fellowships.
All involve work on Greek New Testament commentary manuscripts, to start this autumn. One is on the AHRC-funded Codex Zacynthius project, using multispectral imaging to recover the text of the earliest catena on Luke. Two are on the ERC-funded CATENA project, producing a catalogue of commentary manuscripts, identifying different stages in their history and development and making electronic transcriptions and editions of their text.
The posts would be suitable for patristics scholars with experience of working with Greek manuscripts.
