Florida Atlantic University and the Huntington Library offer three Collaborative Short-Term Fellowships for  Ph.D. dissertation research in their complementary holdings. Each fellow receives $6,000 to cover travel expenses: $2,500 from Florida Atlantic and $3,500 from the Huntington.

The two months of research time is split between Florida Atlantic's Weiner Spirit of America Collection (Boca Raton, FL) and the Huntington Library (San Marino, CA). The overlap in holdings is strongest in

  • the English Civil War
  • the Glorious Revolution
  • the European Enlightenment
  • the American Revolution
  • the U.S. Early Republic

Although the Weiner Spirit of America Collection is tailored for Anglo-American political philosophy, previous fellows have also successfully examined the histories of political economy, religion, science, material texts, nationalism, law, gender, class, race, and bodies/medicine.

To create a collaborative scholarly community around the Weiner Spirit of America Collection, all three fellows will be at Florida Atlantic simultaneously in October 2026. Each may take the Huntington portion of the fellowship at any time between July 1, 2026 and June 30, 2027.

Applications are due November 15, 2025. Full program information and application procedure is available at the URL provided.
