The Shakespeare Association announces a new collaboration with the Bogliasco Foundation. The 2012-13 Bogliasco/SAA fellow will spend one month at the Foundation’s study center outside Genoa, on the Italian Riviera, during the fall 2012 or spring 2013 academic term. Lodging, food, and a studio with computer equipment are provided, along with a $1,000 USD grant for travel and incidental expenses. The Center welcomes a partner or spouse for all or part of the residency. Further information about the Liguria Study Center for the Arts and Humanities can be found at http://www.bfny.org/.

Applicants must be members in good standing of the Shakespeare Association of America and must submit (1) a description of the project to be conducted in Bogliasco, maximum 500 words; (2) an abbreviated curriculum vitae, maximum three pages; (3) a sample of work previously published (maximum 20 pages); (4) preferred term of residency; and (5) three letters of reference, sent directly to the SAA from the e-mail address of the reference writers. References should detail not only scholarly distinction but also social personality—important for the intensive experience of a small residential community.

All materials should be sent as e-mail attachments to shakespeare@georgetown.edu by 15 October 2011.
