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 this seminar, Susan Kahn draws upon her acclaimed biography, Canine Pioneer: The Extraordinary Life of Rudolphina Menzel, to discuss the long and complex life and legacy of Rudolphina Menzel (née Waltuch, 1891-1973).
Kahn’s is the first biography of Rudolphina Menzel, a Viennese-born Jewish scientist. Menzel’s pioneering research on canine psychology, development, and behaviour fundamentally shaped the ways dogs came to be trained, cared for, and understood. Her research had far‑reaching impacts on not only German police and military dog‑training tactics, but also on the Zionist project.
Registration is recommended for in-person attendance and required for hybrid attendance. Please use the booking link below for both bookings.
