Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
The first of the 2023-24 Kellogg Centre for Creative Writing seminar series is a sequence of readings and reflections on how the process of poetic translation can be not only a primary project of advocacy, but also an act of vital apprenticeship and refreshment to creative impetus.
Jane Draycott’s latest collection The Kingdom follows seven earlier publications including The Occupant, Over (T S Eliot Prize shortlist), Prince Rupert’s Drop (Forward Prize shortlist), and her award-winning translation of the 14th-century dream-vision Pearl. Her latest book of translations is Storms Under the Skin: Selected Poems of Henri Michaux (1927-1954), from Two Rivers Press (PBS Recommendation). She is a recipient of a Society of Authors Cholmondeley Award 2023 and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature.
Refreshments will be served from 5pm; the seminar will begin at 5.30pm.
All are welcome and no booking are necessary.
