The A. D. Trendall Fellowship is offered by the Institute of Classical Studies (ICS), part of the University of London’s School of Advanced Study. Inaugurated in 2000 and normally awarded in alternate years, it supports scholars from universities outside the UK. Preference is given to applicants working in Professor Trendall’s areas of interest, including ancient Italy and classical art history.
The fellowship combines a research stay with a proposed event or training activity at ICS. Activities engaging UK-based classical researchers or the national and international subject community are particularly welcome. Fellows are also encouraged to speak at events or participate in workshops elsewhere in the UK when invited.
