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
In many of the German lands the nineteenth century began with a series of catastrophes that destroyed lives and repeatedly shattered communities. For many commentators the memories of the French wars between 1792 and 1815 overshadowed their experience of the decades that followed, shaping their understanding of the historical process. The paper will explore this theme in relation to the thought of Hegel, Marx and Engels, and Jacob Burckhardt.
