Erik Pulz is a Research Fellow in Latin Philology at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, where he has served since April 2017 under Prof. Dr. Rainer Jakobi's chair. He earned his doctorate (Dr. phil.) from the same institution in February 2021 and completed a visiting postdoctoral position at Stanford University (October 2022–March 2023) through a DAAD scholarship. His academic foundation includes a Bachelor of Arts (2014) and Master of Education (2016) in Classical Philology and Byzantinistics from Leipzig University. BA in Classical Philology and Byzantinistics (Leipzig, 2014) MA in Classical Philology and Byzantinistics (Leipzig, 2016) PhD in Latin Philology (Halle, 2021) Pulz's research spans Latin and Greek literature with emphasis on Roman love poetry, historiography, and digital philology. His monograph on Laevius (2023) examines early Latin erotic epigram, while his Sallust studies explore narratology and rhetorical devices in Bellum Catilinae . He investigates textual transmission in Greek tragedy (e.g., Phrynichus' Alcestis ) and contributes to digital classics through the Platon Digital project. His work consistently bridges traditional philological methods with computational approaches, particularly in Greek text processing. Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals three dominant research threads: (1) Latin Republican literature (Sallust, Laevius, early epigram), (2) Greek textual criticism (Euripides, Phrynichus), and (3) digital humanities applications. His output demonstrates increasing interdisciplinary engagement, with recent work combining narratology, metaleptic theory, and computational linguistics. The 2019 Platon Digital contributions highlight his expertise in corpus development and variant-sensitive text analysis. Promotionsstipendium der Studienstiftung des Deutschen Volkes (2017, declined) Fondation Hardt Scholarship for Young Researchers (2019) DAAD Post-Doc Short-Term Scholarship (2022-2023) Pulz serves as editorial staff for Forum Classicum (2021-2022) and collaborates on digital humanities initiatives like Platon Digital. His grant history shows consistent support for early-career research, including prestigious international fellowships. While no formal advisees are documented, his role as scientific staff at Halle involves mentoring junior researchers in Latin philology. Future work appears focused on completing studies of Aprissius and expanding digital text-critical methodologies. As part of the Platon Digital team at Halle, Pulz contributes to creating gold-standard parallel corpora for Platonic paraphrases. His work intersects with computational linguistics groups developing form-accurate stopword lists for Ancient Greek, demonstrating active participation in cross-disciplinary digital classics networks.
