The IRH is very pleased to announce a new fellowship for scholars from outside UW–Madison: the SubStance Fellowship for Advanced Research in Modern Humanities.

Thanks to the generosity of the founding editors of the journal SubStance, Sydney Levy and Michel Pierssens, the IRH will be home to a scholar working in modern humanities (understood as research on topics post-1700). The field of the SubStance Fellowship is open to all humanities disciplines and humanistic social sciences, like our present fellowships, and scholars of all ranks are welcome to apply.

For now, this will be a one-semester residential fellowship, available biannually, most likely starting in 2028-29. Stay tuned for details.
