The project, led by (opens in a new window)Dr Susan Flavin (Trinity College Dublin), will run for five years (February 2019-January 2024). It is the first major project to establish both the fundamentals of everyday diet, and the cultural ‘meaning’ of food and drink, in early modern Ireland.
The PD will be appointed under Work Package 2 (WP2) of the FOODCULT project: Mapping Diet: Comparative Foodways in Early Modern Ireland, which will transform archaeological grey and published data into knowledge to facilitate the complex interdisciplinary study of comparative regional diets in early modern Ireland. WP2 is based in University College Dublin and will be supervised by (opens in a new window)Dr Meriel McClatchie.
Closing Date: 17.00hrs (Local Irish Time) on 27th February 2019
