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
Issues of gender, sexual relations and intimacy are promising areas of research, but ones that are still very much new to being explored in Holocaust historiography. This week’s readings approach these topics in two different ways, giving an insight into research on intimacy in both a wartime and a Holocaust context.
