Update (20 August 2016)

I wasn’t able to hire anyone for this post, but will rerun the search this fall. More information forthcoming soon. In the meantime, if you happen to know anyone suitable — especially with a strong background in NLP and an interest in humanities problems — please let me know so that I can get in touch. Thanks!

Original post

I’m hiring a postdoc for next year (2016-17) to work on literature, geography, and computational methods. Wide latitude in training and background; interest in working on a very large geographic dataset a big plus. Full details and application via Interfolio. Review begins next week. The position will remain open until filled.

Many thanks to the Text Mining the Novel Project for helping to underwrite the post.
