The project also aspires to interdisciplinarity, aiming better to integrate Mesopotamia within the discourse on Ancient intellectual history.
REPAC’s core team is composed of four members, the PI, one Postdoctoral Research Fellow and two PhD candidates in Assyriology.
The Postdoctoral Research Fellow will play an active role in the research of the group and will also be actively involved in the design of new research concepts. She/he will contribute to the refinement of the project’s theoretical and methodological foundations and to the establishment of its textual base, with a special focus on the magical corpus.
The Postdoctoral Research Fellow is also expected to participate in the project’s teaching and training activities, to organize seminars and other events, and to publish articles both independently and in collaboration with other team members.

Applicants should hold an internationally-recognized PhD-degree in Assyriology.
