Your tasks and responsibilities: There are  two  positions available, both of which investigate the narratological category of narrative perspective using different text corpora. Dissertation on the Pauline epistles: The Pauline epistles contain a variety of “miniature narratives” about Jesus Christ. Differences between the various versions have been controversially discussed in the past (e.g., community traditions, part of an overarching narrative structure, etc.). This doctoral project should examine the extent to which differences can be attributed to different choices of narrative perspective. Dissertation on apocryphal literature: Apocryphal literature contains numerous retellings of canonical texts. This project aims at examining how the retelling in new contexts is associated with differences in narrative perspective. The topic can be chosen quite freely within this broad framework. Your qualifications: Excellent degree...
