OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Zadie Smith as Essayist: A Roundtable
Join the Oxford Essays Research Group for our first event, kindly supported by the Oxford Centre for Life-Writing (@OxLifeWriting). We will be discussing Smith’s corpus of non fiction as ‘literary’ in its own right. A couple of specific essay titles to read will be sent around via our email list, but all levels of knowledge are welcome! Topics we might discuss include: Smith’s essayistic voice; her literary critical style; her social and political commentary; constructions of intimacy; and, questions of truth-telling.
Join the mailing list by emailing luke.young@oriel.ox.ac.uk.
