The DFG Research Training Group “Autonomy of Heteronomous Texts in Antiquity and the Middle Ages” researches texts such as commentaries, paraphrases, compendia, lexica, chronicles, collections, retold novels, and more. Since these and similar texts consciously depend on other texts, we call them ”heteronomous” texts. These works will be studied across genres and disciplines with respect to how they process their pre-texts on various levels (e.g., scholarly, cultural, formal, aesthetic) through selection and actualization and thereby develop their own “autonomy.” Dissertations can be written in either German or English within the following – and possibly even additional disciplines: Ancient History; Church History; Classical Philology/Greek; Classical Philology/Latin; Medieval German Studies; Medieval Latin and Modern Latin Philology; New Testament; Old Testament; Philosophy (Ancient and Medieval Philosophy; Arabic Philosophy); Roman Law. 

Our study and qualification programme supports you with required courses and non-required electives and enables you to gain insights into the work of research institutions, publishing houses, libraries, etc., all within the framework of paid internships.
