OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Dressing 'Greek': Clothing, Movement, and Performance from ancient to modern
This event is free and open to all, to register please contact milly.cox@classics.ox.ac.uk
By drawing on the rich and interdisciplinary nature of clothing, this conference will bring together seasoned scholars and doctoral students from an array of backgrounds to cultivate a multidimensional approach to clothed bodies and objects in dance and performance. By connecting threads between disciplines, the conference will create a generative web of knowledge and engagement with modes of movement and dressing across the ancient and modern worlds. Since dress is an often-overlooked area of study, inter-disciplinary dialogue is vital to showcase the multitude of scholarly responses to ancient Greek bodies, performance and clothing.
The event will bring together participants from Classical Archaeology, Philology, Classical Reception, Ancient dance studies, English, Theatre History, Fashion History, and Gender studies. It will feature a live performance and an accompanying textile art exhibition.
