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
Lincoln Unlocked Lecture: The Jewish history of Lincoln College
This term’s Lincoln Unlocked lecture is a panel of three talks that explore the role of Jewish scholars in the history of the College and situate their experiences and intellectual legacies in the wider contexts of the history of Judaism and the history of Jews in Oxford.
Professor Martin Goodman (Professor of Jewish Studies, Wolfson College) will offer an overview of the Jewish history of the city and university. Dr Joshua Bennett (Fellow and Tutor in Modern History, Lady Margaret Hall) will look at the work of the philosopher Samuel Alexander: the first Jewish fellow of an Oxford college. Moving further into the twentieth century, Dr Bojan Bujic (Emeritus Fellow and Tutor in Music, Magdalen College) will consider the significance of Egon Wellesz’s Jewish background for his life and work as a musicologist and composer.
All three talks will call attention to the untold history of Lincoln’s significant interactions with Jewish intellectual culture during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Everyone is welcome and no booking is necessary.
