Applications are invited for a temporary post of a UCD Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 1 or 2 within UCD School of English, Drama and Film. Applications are invited for a full-time, three-year postdoctoral fellowship to join a team working on a European Research Council-funded project entitled ‘Anticolonialism, Pan-Asianism, and Periodical Culture in Southeast Asia, c. 1850-1920’ (Pan Asia). Spanning three European empires (French, British, and Dutch) and five interconnected port cities (Singapore, Penang, Rangoon, Batavia, and Saigon), Pan Asia is a five-year (2027-2032) study of the newspapers, journals, and magazines of nineteenth and early twentieth-century Southeast Asia (c. 1850-1920). The project’s primary objectives are, first, to compare the production of anticolonial periodical media by colonised peoples in multiple languages across the five maritime sites; second, to uncover transimperial and/or transnational print networks of anticolonial resistance between colonised peoples across the region; and third, to investigate how pan-Asian or shared Asian cultural values were used to mobilise anticolonial thinking and praxis. In its first stage, Pan Asia will focus on a) locating the relevant multilingual periodical corpus and obtaining permissions to publish or republish that corpus on the project website; b) designing and implementing a searchable and machine-readable database of relevant parts of the corpus; c) identifying and cross-referencing intertextual exchange within the corpus; d) identifying reprinted and/or syndicated articles across the corpus; and e) identifying periodical fiction across the corpus. PD1 Salary: €47,273 - €53,925 per annum PD2 Salary: €55,399 - €60,250 per annum Appointment on the above range will be dependent upon qualifications and experience. Closing date: 12:00 noon (local Irish time) on 18 th November 2026. Applications must be submitted by the closing date and time specified. Any applications which are still in progress at the closing time of 12:00 noon (Local Irish Time) on the specified closing date will be cancelled automatically by the system. UCD are unable to accept late applications. UCD do not require assistance from Recruitment Agencies. Any CVs submitted by Recruitment Agencies will be returned. The PD1 position is intended for early stage researchers, either just after completion of a PhD or for someone entering a new area for the first time. If you have already completed your PD1 stage in UCD or will soon complete a PD1, or you are an external applicant whose total Postdoctoral experience, inclusive of the duration of the advertised post, would exceed 4 years, you should not apply and should refer to PD2 posts instead. The PD2 post is intended for researchers that have completed PD1. As with the PD1, if you have already completed your PD2 stage in UCD or will soon complete a PD2, or your total Postdoctoral experience, inclusive of the duration of the advertised post, would exceed 6 years, you should not apply and should refer to Research Fellow posts instead. €47,273 to €60,250 - please see advert
