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
This paper will query the extent to which the True Religion Apologies of the Jacobite theologian Abū Rāʾiṭa al-Takrītī (d. c. 835) and Nestorian theologian ʿAmmār al-Baṣrī (d. after 838) offer a coherent understanding of the relationship between religion and coercive force. Attention is given both to the ‘true religion’ apologies themselves, and also, concerning Abū Rāʾiṭa, to his “Refutation of the Melkites Concerning the Union” (III).
