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
In this workshop, aimed primarily at DPhil students and early-career researchers, we will talk about the challenges of publishing your first book in the areas of comparative literature, modern languages and/or literary translation. Based on her experience of publishing Translation Multiples (PUP 2025), Kasia will discuss the importance of choosing and approaching the right publisher for the first book project, writing an effective book proposal, and navigating the academic publishing industry more broadly.
