REMINDER - "Original – isn't it?" New Options for the Humanities and Cultural Studies

"Originality" is a crucial criterion of quality in the humanities and cultural studies. However, the specific nature of the themes belonging to the humanities and cultural sciences makes it extremely difficult to say precisely what constitutes "original", "new", or "innovative". "Originality" may encompass anything that contradicts the established knowledge or generally accepted intuition, or even the development of a new approach to research, a new hypothesis, a new theory, observation of a new phenomenon, and discovery of knowledge gaps.
 
Proposals must be led by a German researcher

RDA Deadline: November 9, 2017
