OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Joint KCL/Oxford Workshop
This workshop considers the composition, performance, and repetition of texts of lament, loss
and healing. We understand the writing and reading of these lament traditions to be the work
of therapy. Presentations will explore how interpretive communities – collective and
individual – internalise, interpret and translate experiences of trauma and fracture into new
readings, rewritten scripture, and radical prayer.
