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
The range of Lara Feigel’s writing as critic, literary historian and novelist has produced a remarkable oeuvre in which questions of life-writing continually surface and take on new directions. Lara and Hermione’s conversation will range across Lara’s non-fiction (which includes Free Woman: Life, Liberation and Doris Lessing and The Love-charm of Bombs: Restless Lives in the Second World War) and fiction (The Group). It will draw out vital concerns about the construction of the self, the relationship between life and work, the relationship between the individual and the collective, and issues of female identity.
Professor Lara Feigel is a writer and cultural historian teaching in the English department at King’s College London.
Professor Dame Hermione Lee is a biographer and Emeritus Professor of English Literature in the English Faculty at Oxford University.
This event will take place in the Leonard Wolfson Auditorium (LWA) (accessibility information). Wolfson College currently operates a mandatory indoor face coverings and one-metre social distancing policy, and we can therefore offer 75 spaces are in the LWA.
