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.
The renewed appreciation of classical eloquence in the Italian renaissance led to major changes in how manuscripts were made, written and decorated. Join us as we look through some lesser-known treasures from the Bodleian Library to learn more about these transformations and how they reached England. With Matthew Holford, Tolkien Curator of Medieval Manuscripts, and David Rundle, Lecturer in Latin and Manuscript Studies at the University of Kent, and author of The Renaissance Reform of the Book and Britain (Cambridge University Press, 2019).
Dr Matthew Holford, Tolkien Curator of Medieval Manuscripts, Bodleian Libraries
