Dear AH.com community
After consulting with @Ian the Admin for permission, I am now pleased to share with all of you a call to apply to a short summer school program in Brazil, the São Paulo School of Advanced Science on the Bicentennial of the Independence of Brazil, to be held in person from 6 to 15 February, 2023, in São Paulo, Brazil. The school is jointly organized by the University of São Paulo and the Ipiranga Museum, both known institutions of excellent academic record nationally and internationally that will serve as hosts. The school will offer a program centered on the historical processes of Brazilian independence, including its domestic and international dimensions, and will count with high level lecturers who are references in their respective fields.
This call is primarily aimed at graduate students, PhD candidates and post-docs, though all are welcome to apply if interested. We offer full scholarships for ALL selected participants, covering travel costs to and from São Paulo and accommodation for the duration of the school. The course will be taught in Portuguese, with real time translation to English available.
If you are a historian or researcher of any level, you are welcome to apply and will likely be considered a competitive candidate. Preference will be given to applicants whose research is thematically appropriate with the school, i.e. fields like Brazilian history, Latin American independence processes, Atlantic History, the slave trade/African diaspora, coffee etc., including larger fields such as 18th or 19th century history (e.g. Napoleonic Wars, revolutions, Vienna Congress etc.), and Global History (e.g. Atlantic colonial systems, history of capitalism etc.), which can be even tangentially connected to the main theme of the School.
If you are interested, I urge you to apply. If not, I invite you to share this call with colleagues who might be interested. We are currently in a second and final round of applications, and applications are due on Saturday, February 14th, at 23:59h (Brasília time).

Good look to y'all and feel free to post here or message me if you have any questions (and thank you, Ian, for your support).
PS: the school will be held throughout the week preceding Carnival, so there will be no shortage of opportunities to experience Brazilian culture and to engage in cultural exchange.
