  Scholarship, prize and job offer - America

  Post-Doctoral Fellowship ANR RelRace

  The postdoctoral researcher is recruited to work more specifically in Axis 1 of the program. Requested profile is a specialist in American religious history and more specifically of African-American religious expressions (North America and the English-speaking Caribbean as a priority but the rest of America is not excluded). He/She will have to work around the construction of racial counter-genealogies produced from religious supports (Gehazi curse in the Bible II Kings 5, creation of the white race by Yakûb in the narratives of the Nation of Islam…) reversing the stigma that made Africans or Blacks the descendants of a cursed lineage (Cain’s mark, Cham’s curse…) or reshaping the notion of elected people. He/She may, in this context, conduct his/her own work but will have to participate in the coordination of collective research particularly around the production of the collaborative and collective database of the program.
