Are you working or willing to work on ascetics and kings in Vedic, Pāli Buddhism and Jaina sources? Or on anthropological and/or artistic sources on the same topic?
Then, consider advertising for the following fellowships.
Some practical information:
—Your constant presence on the island is not required.
—The fellowship will enable you to work in a great environment (I have already praised Tiziana Pontillo, the project's coordinator, here and the other post doc are interesting and charming people).
—You are not expected to know Italian. The working language will be English and you are expected to are fluent in it. (If you need assistence with the Italian application, please consider asking me or Dr. Tiziana Pontillo).
—You will need either a PhD or at least 2 years of research after the attainment of your MA degree.
For further detail on the project, see this post.

tempting!
Dear Jayarava,
there is no reason for not trying, especially since you would have a few interesting ideas to add to the discussion (and since I do not know of anyone else knowing Pāli and willing to apply).
I keep thinking of the old film "The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari". I'm such a philistine.
