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
Rebecca Earle teaches history at the University of Warwick, where she also completed her doctorate. Her research has concentrated primarily the relationship between everyday life and broader categories of identity such as those associated with race or nation. For some years she has worked particularly on the relationship between everyday eating practices and the evolution of, first, racial categories, and, more recently, notions of governance and the idea of the free market. Her last monograph, The Body of the Conquistador, won the Conference on Latin American History’s Bolton-Johnson Prize for the best publication in English on Latin American history. Her most recent publication is Potato, which was published in Bloomsbury’s Object Lessons series in March 2019.
