OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

A lecture to celebrate the launch of The Mishnaic Moment: Jewish Law among Jews and Christians in Early Modern Europe, edited by Piet van Boxel, Kirsten Macfarlane, and Joanna Weinberg.
The Mishnaic Moment offers a unique study of a remarkable encounter between Jews and Christians in seventeenth-century northern Europe, when scholars from both communities were printing, producing, and discussing commentaries on the canonical corpus of Jewish Law, the Mishnah. The volume culminates in an examination of the monumental production in six volumes of an edition and Latin translation of the Mishnah, published by Guilielmus Surenhusius in Amsterdam between 1698 and 1703.

Followed by a champagne reception.
