Professor Eva Mroczek's latest book, The Literary Imagination in Jewish Antiquity(Oxford University Press, 2016), has been awarded the "Manfred Lautenschlaeger Award for Theologian Promise" by the University of Heidelberg's Forschungszentrum für Internationale und Interdisziplinäre Theologie FIIT (Research Center for International and Interdisciplinary Theology). It awards outstanding doctoral or first post-doctoral works on any religious tradition from all academic fields and from any country. Every year, 10 scholars are selected by an international committee of evaluators from 18 countries. Winners are invited to an awards ceremony in Heidelberg and a seminar where they present their current research, and each receives a prize of €3,000.
The department congratulates Professor Mroczek on this wonderful accomplishment!
