ZEIT-Stiftung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius: Arnold Heidsieck Scholarship Fund - USA-Stipendien für Geisteswissenschaftler

The Arnold Heidsieck Scholarship Fund invites applications from BA-students in the humanities who are currently enrolled at a German university and have a focus on German culture, language, history, music, or art in their studies.

Several scholarships for one or two semesters at universities in the US will be awarded for the sixth time to aid with travel and living costs abroad. Selection is based on written applications.

Arnold Heidsieck (1937-2009), philosopher and German philologist, taught as a professor at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Born in Leipzig and raised in Breslau, Heidsieck studied theology in Tübingen and wrote his doctoral dissertation in literary studies at the Freie Universität Berlin. His research initially centred on Kafka and his intellectual contemporaries; his later work focused on German post-war literature and representations of the Holocaust.
