Het Museum Plantin-Moretus en de Erfgoedbibliotheek Hendrik Conscience kondigen met veel plezier aan dat zij een onderzoeksbeurs lanceren, bedoeld voor buitenlandse onderzoekers die verder dan een dagreis van Antwerpen wonen, om hun reis naar en verblijf in Antwerpen te financieren. Hieronder vindt u de Engelstalige aankondiging.

The Plantin-Moretus Museum and the Hendrik Conscience Heritage Library (Antwerp) are pleased to announce a fellowship programme for research into the history of the early printed book (15th-18th century) in Antwerp, with the gracious support of the “Thierry and Frédéric Nottebohm Grant” of the Nottebohm Family Foundation. In 2018, we are able to offer two short-term grants, with a minimum duration of two weeks.

The research grants are open to anyone, including early career scholars, independent researchers and established scholars. However, grants are not available for persons living within 250 km of Antwerp. Applicants living in Europe can request up to 2000 €, applicants living outside of Europe can request up to 3000 €. The grant can only be used for transportation and accommodation.
