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.
Dr Benjamin Bateman is Senior Lecturer in Post-1900 British Literature and Director of Learning and Teaching in The School of Literatures, Languages, and Cultures at The University of Edinburgh. His monographs are The Modernist Art of Queer Survival and Queer Disappearance in Modern and Contemporary Fiction, both from Oxford University Press.
In this two-day lecture series, Benjamin will share insights from the research for his new book project that revisits HIV/AIDS fiction from the 1980s and 1990s and examines both its (underappreciated) formal complexity and its co-emergence with the field of queer theory. Authors to be studied include Andrew Holleran, Dale Peck, Sarah Schulman, John Weir, and Patricia Powell.
