OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

Lament, Reading and Therapy
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.
