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
Special Lecture: ‘The New World: Eurocentric label or valid historical category?’
Is the “New World” little more than a totalizing, and even Eurocentric, label? José Moya discusses the diversity and gaps within the New World but also the shared traits that distinguish it from the rest of the world and impact the label with meaning as a valid historical category.
José Moya is professor of history and director of the Forum on Migration at Barnard College, Director of the Institute of Latin American Studies at Columbia University and Professor Emeritus at UCLA.
