Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Join Helen Carr and Suzannah Lipscomb in conversation about their latest book, What is History, Now?, a ground breaking collection of essays addressing the burning issue of how we interpret history today.
Inspired by the influential text What is History? authored by Helen Carr’s great-grandfather, E.H. Carr, What is History, Now? covers topics such as queer history, the history of faith, the history of disability, environmental history, the history of racism and anti-racism, escaping imperial nostalgia, hearing women’s voices and ‘rewriting’ the past.
Featuring a diverse mix of writers, with both bestselling names and emerging voices, the book is a timely collection studying our relationship with the past and the present.
Helen Carr and Suzannah Lipscomb will be in conversation with Jess Nelson, Head of Collections at The National Archives.
